Holi, Celebration of Colors

April 22, 2009 By Andres Izquieta

Saw this today on Desi Nuts website, check it out, feature of photographer Poras Chaudhary trip to Holi in India, the festival of colors.

Check out the message written from Poras below. This festival is another reason to love India, what a great place. We need something like this in the US!

Read below:

Born in a small city of Northern India known as Kurukshetra, I did my schooling from there and then moved to Chandigarh for college and to play cricket professionally. But a shoulder injury ruined my career as a cricketer and I came back to my home city and took addmission in LL.B. Coming from a city like Chandigarh I didn’t have anything much to do in Kurukshetra (which is a very small town in comparison), So I bought a Digital Camera (Canon 350D) and got hooked to Photography, as luck had it I won Digital Camera Magazine’s “Photographer of the Year” competition. The fact that I am able to capture a moment in time that is never going to come again is simply very exciting for me….. and the fact that nobody can ever replicate it… No matter what…

Now, Me and My Camera are inseparable……Some of my hobbies include Playing Cricket, Watching Movies (Not Mainstream), Listening to Music and of course Photography (which has become a passion now)…
