Photowalking hits Delhi

September 13th, 2007

One of our users - Abhishek Baxi from New Delhi has done the groundwork to initiate Photowalking in India. Now if most of you are wondering what that is.. here’s quoting from Wikipedia -

“Photowalking is the act of walking with a camera for the main purpose of taking pictures of things you may find interesting“.

Photowalking has been catching on in several countries as a fun way to discovering interesting sights, possibly even in your near vicinity, which otherwise went unnoticed in the rush of daily life. Its a great way to meeting new people, spending some quality time with your attention deprived camera (if you’re like me!) and sharing your tips and techniques, and hopefully learn a few nuances of this wonderful art :)

So this is a call to everyone interested to spread the word and join in this fun past time. The first Photowalk is this Sunday (16th September) and you can sign up on the mailing list at www.photowalking.info to get the updates. Its great to see that Abhishek took the time to get things moving. I’ll try my best to make it Abhishek, hope to see you then.
