Choices! What will it be? #46

A photographer has an extraordinary ability to connect with the things which surround him. He does not have a camera just to click but has magic to save the moments in seconds.

Like the other artists, a photographer also passes through a painstaking period to click their best shots. Once I heard from Aftab Iqbal (a journalist) that every artist must have paid the price for his creativity, like a poet suffered a lot just to pen two lines on paper and so do the actors and writers etc.

But when I read some stories behind the most beautifully clicked pictures, I believe the same lines are true for a photographers. They wait for hours just for the adjustment of light and angles.

A photographer -a savior of our memories

Destin Spark said" Photography is an art of making memories tangible."
This line truly expresses my emotions about the photos. I have two different photos of my mom in my cellphone. One I clicked years ago and the other one by some college photographer.

For me, these are the most precious memories of my whole life. Whenever I need her, I open the photos and put my finger on her face, to feel her presence. This is not a replacement for her, but it still works a lot. I can not pen the actual emotions related to these memories, but I think those who lost some of their loved ones can feel it. And by writing here I feel so grateful for that college photographer who saved the most valuable thing of my whole life.

My favourite photographer

My favorite photographer is "Syed Mehdi Bukhari". He mostly works in still photography and sometimes on portraits from different cultures.

He covered many official event of our government, but he had no rival in capturing nature. He is a commendable author as well. His description of capturing his photographs is always a treat for his fans. When you see his photos and then read the captions on it create an illusion around you, and a reader actually feel that place around him. I want to share his profile link here so you guys can check his captivating work.

Me as a photographer

On a serious note, I really love to capture photos. If I were a professional photographer, I would choose "still life photography". But unfortunately, I'm not . I feel that I'm not a very fi e photographer, but fortunately for my family, I'm the best among all of them.😄. I know many things about the frams, light and background.

Friends, I also want to tell you that I learned about my cell phone camera adjustment from our sweet lady @patjewell. She is excellent at it. I love her photographs.
I once won a black and white photography competition in steem for the Pakistan community. That is my biggest achievement in this field 🤭 till now.

Photographers Scop in Pakistan

In Pakistan, photography has not so much scope except for the event shootings. But many photographers work a lot in this field. Among these are MHtoori and Ali Awais. If you want to see the beauty of Pakistan, you check out their work on their Facebook profiles. They work very hard to show the world the brighter face of our beloved country.

Some other problems about this fiel also exist. Like we have almost no institute about professional photography. Plus, the equipment for photography like lenses, cameras, lights etc are too expensive for ordinary man.So most of enthusiastic photographers take it as a their job.
