• A fotó története

  Photographing the great-crested grebe against the rays of the setting sun under certain low angle with the reflection in the calm water of the lake suddenly created the marvellous rainbow bokeh as if depicting the dream-world of the wonder-bird. I love a lot the great-crested grebes. They are so dainty birds of unique behaviour. I spend hours watching them on the lake nearby and trying to photograph them.

  I am a dedicated photo artist, known in photographic circles as Ritam. I have a deep focus on nature photography, especially birds. My work has earned prizes and recognition in international contests. As a poet, I compose poems inspired by my images, blending photography and poetry into a harmonious synthesis. My photo-poetic exhibitions have been showcased in Russia, India, and beyond. My main aim and inspiration is to share in the living communion with the sublime, all-embracing soul of the universe, with the beauty of the world as Her grand, miraculous expression, and our own soul of beauty and harmony as Her living particle.
