YPS Meet Live | July 19, Sun | 5:30 PM | YPS Facebook page
Our next YPS meet is by Mr. Praveen Mohandas
As the title suggests, this is a presentation with a difference!
Mr. Praveen Mohandas presents “Wildlife in Landscape” bridging between wildlife and landscape images of wilderness and all on Monochrome!
He says “Colour photography to me is very representational if done in the regular way. My nature photography is not about records of my encounters. Many a times it’s an emotional response to the situation I am in. I like to get focused on to the subtitles of nature which otherwise is ignored . Black and white helps me to bring the initial layer of abstraction in the work. Our focus moves more towards form, texture,light etc.. as we start to read these aspects we get emotional with the picture. A similar or different emotion on the field made me make that particular image. Black and white also gives the viewer the freedom to interpret the visual in their own way thus engaging at different levels with the visual..
Let us join him on Sunday, 19 July on an unusual journey into the wilderness.

YPS Event Live | July 12, Sun | 4:00 PM | YPS Facebook page
One of the exciting experiences of being a YPS member was that of reading the newsletter ‘ದೃಷ್ಟಿ The Vision’, which used to be a monthly publication and carried the information on happenings of the Society and achievements of members. The newsletter serves as a means of connecting members of the Society, irrespective of whether one could attend the regular programmes held.
The four-page newsletter printed in single colour, was transformed to an e-version and then to a collection of event updates on the YPS website.
A team of enthusiastic members have put together Dṛṣṭi in the form of a journal with interesting content and all pages in colour. The YPS journal Dṛṣṭi will be relaunched on Sunday, 12th July 2020.
