A Few Drops of Rain, by Saniar Rahman Rahul

Few drops of rain, falling on the leaf and the ground, like a bud of nature with a sweet gentle smell. It was a gloomy day, and pouring time after time from the morning. And when I reached this place, a small village named Master Para in Gazipur, not that far from the capital Dhaka, I can’t stop myself taking photograph of these beautiful raindrops on bamboo leaf, glittering magnificently.

Saniar Rahman Rahul was the first winner for ‘Photo of the Month Award’ in June 2010. He was fascinated by seeing his father taking pictures with a camera while his family was in Iraq during his childhood. Later in life, in 1997, while he became very much attached with his profession of ‘graphic design’, Rahul rediscovered the creative side of photography. He started his career as a professional graphic designer in October of 1995, in a pre-press house called Color Scan, which is one of the pioneers in the pre-process printing media in Bangladesh. Afterwards, he moved to Power Point, another pre-press house. Before he finally settled into advertising, he also worked in an IT company called Abtab IT. Moving to advertising from printing media was a big step for him. In 2005, he joined G3, a special wing of Gray Worldwide. Two years later, he moved to Paper Rhyme. Now he is working as the Art Director of Grey World Wide, one of the ten largest advertising agencies in the world.
