The Photography Bug

It didn't take me too long to get bitten by the photography bug. I took to photography like how a fish takes to water. There might be something to do with the genes too. Since childhood I've seen my dad do a lot of photography with the old horizontal-bar type of cameras that took 28mm film. Of course he wasn't into photography as an art but rather for the sake of keeping memories. I too loved taking photos to keep memories, but as I went on and understood the intricacies of photography I started taking it seriously and as an art form.

Everyone can enjoy taking photography in one form or another. You don't need expensive equipment to get started into photography, but of course, you must understand that better equipment always helps. The best quality and range of photographic equipment that you get these days are Digital-SLRs. Of course these cannot be termed cheap, but can range from barely affordable to the insanely expensive.

What I am going to do here is start off with the basic concepts and theories of photography and then move on to more advanced topics that deal with the art of photography and also some post processing. Do keep reading and do drop me some feedback and comments/suggestions on how I can improve the content and what all you would like to read about.
