Close-Up Photography Award: Look at Me | Light & Composition University

I captured this shot at a bi-annual Flower Show that is held in Bangalore, India. As I was walking along looking for subjects to photograph I noticed this particular flower illuminated by a ray of sunlight almost singling it out from the crowd and in a sense I could feel the flower telling me ‘Look at me’.

Photography started off as a hobby for Kurien Koshy Yohannan but now it plays a major role in his life – so much so that he plans to slowly start making a living from it. Koshy believes there is so much beauty around us that can be captured; nature is full of beauty waiting for us to capture it, if we have the eye and receptiveness for it. Koshy intends to capture this beauty through his camera lens for all to enjoy and behold. Through his photography he would like people to appreciate the world we live in – the animal and plant life that coexist with us as well as the people and cultures that surround us – and hopes that it may provide a renewed enthusiasm for people to safeguard the beautiful planet that we call Home.
