1. Do you like to take photos? 

Yes, I love it. I started by taking photos on my mobile camera at weddings and parties. Slowly, I became interested in nature. I started taking snaps of birds and flowers. Then I bought a digital cam. Photography is my hobby now!

 

2. In which situation do you take photos? 

I carry my camera with me wherever I go. You never know when a special moment occurs. It could just be rain in the hillside, the laughter of your kid, a monkey jumping with its newborn, a roaring lion in the wild. It could be any small moment of awe that you would want to treasure for the future.

 

3. How do you store your photos? 

I store them in the cloud, and it could be anything from a dropbox, google photos, or google drive. I don’t save them on the phone because I run out of space. When I find something interesting, I don’t hesitate to make an album out of them.

 

4.Do you like posing for pictures? 

I love selfies! But I also like to pose for photos. But I don’t restrict myself to weddings and parties. It could be anything from a picnic with friends, trekking in the wild, or simply loving moments with my family.
