desire of capturing beautiful parts of human nature. We humans love
to have images saved, these images are reminder of some of the most
beautiful, glorious and touching moments of our lives. Photography

decades. The journey has been long but satisfying. It all started
with invention of pinhole camera and gradually we moved onto
permanent black and white images. When colored era beckoned, things
changed dramatically.

pictures. But that was just a beginning. Today, we are in the era of
