Chasing poverty!

Immensely talented and dedicated...yet the first thing one would notice about him is passion...
not just about his profession but about the state of the world that we live in.

To create that which is meaningful and true...to make a difference...to make a better living possible..not just for himself ,but for the world....
he is a man who holds a dream close to his heart.


A photographer by profession,an idealist by temperament;let me call him PS.

He has talent ,zeal & dedication.Three attributes that spell success in any language.

Success...as in cash and kind.....success as in a materialistic world..

.However he began to roam the world,working in the harshest of conditions ,most of them man made ,began to perceive the suffering and began to understand the global problems . He saw that we lived in a world in which half the people were suffering and the other half were not even aware of it.


This man would not be at rest.In spite of all his difficulties in his personal life,he persists in going to all the troubled and terrible places.Not just because it is a job like any other but because he has the courage of his conviction.He understands that the way out of all human problems lies in creating awareness and bringing information to the uninformed ,the uninitiated & the ignorant.He will do it.



Floods..earthquakes...fires....real human suffering draws him in order to find an expression.
in a world populated mainly by people who are in the rat race to earn cold cash ,here is man chasing poverty in order to make the earth a better place...
i call him a hero..
