Yes! You’re right. You’re surely thinking, “again one more self-declared ‘Photographer’ in the city!

To be honest, I am no more of a Daboo Ratnani or the Gowariker. Me, a normal 9 to 5 working man. Oops, my shift is from 2.30-10.30. But still, I am the pre or in process guy, who has just begun to immerse his hands in the lens and the negative rolls.

Yes, I’m another next door Photographer, born today, the 3rd February at 3.08 am. Yup, very peculiar time!

So, let me share my experience of being born as a Photographer, and how was I born.

It was the lazy Friday night, the 2nd Feb 2018, and the next day was crazy Saturday, holiday. Tomorrow, I had to rush home early in the morning to a rejoice my two days of freedom from the office and the bore PG.

I had just returned from my office. After the dinner, I was preparing to sleep at 12 midnight with earphone stuffed in my ear with a TV serial playing on my Samsung phone.

Finally, the battery drained off at 2.20 am, with no sleep yet. At last, I stepped out of my arm blanket and plugged the charger and managed set the alarm for 4.30 am, with a long yawn.

While I was lying down, wrapped in my Pink blanket, I was thinking of many things and especially Amazon. A few days ago, I was looking for a Canon DSLR on Amazon. And I started to dream about the wonderful black gadget.

But, suddenly I slipped back to my level, like Eminem’s song “Lose yourself” says, “Back to reality”. I wasn’t a Photographer and I had no single GK regarding DSLR. Even, I didn’t know what “DSLR” stands for.

But I was more or less of a Mobile Smartphone Photographer, and that I did with full dedication. First with my Nokia N-series, than Samsung galaxy, continuing with Samsung Grand, Samsung J7 prime and so on. By the way, yup, I’m very loyal towards Samsung.

Coming back to my Saturday morning at 3 am, I thought that, before just picking up a DSLR or any such stuff, I should at least educate my self about it and develop my selection and visualization of an image.

So, thinking off, I again started with my Samsung J7 prime and learned few of its unknown settings as Auto focus, Auto focus lock, ISO and many more.

So, at that time I really needed to test my inbuilt Photographer, if I was worth buying a DSLR. So I began to click random stuffs in my PG room at 3.08 am (yes, the above mentioned time).

At last, I took a packet of detergent (Surf Excel) and started my Photography on it. I spread the detergent powder on a sheet of paper and started to click it.

Finally, I managed to zoom in and zoom out, with ease and got a Nice snap.

Here it is . . .
