SamudraScapes

Manoj Samudra
It is truly wonderful to pursue one’s passion, creativity and exploration along life’s journey through photography and art. This has helped me to discover the joy, emotions and beauty around us by capturing special moments wherever I’ve travelled in India and overseas in North America, Europe and Asia.
I have been inspired by the art of Raghu Rai, a Living Legend in the word of photography as well as Ansel Adams. I have been fortunate to meet and interact with Raghu Rai, and other acclaimed photographers and look forward to their blessings on this journey of exploration. Yes, I wish to have my own exhibit and books published in near future.
Music is my other inspiration and I have been fortunate to be associated with SPIC MACAY (Society for Promotion of International Music and Culture amongst Youth www.spicmacay.com ). I have had to fortune to capture the Living Legends of Indian Classical Music as well as some international ones over the recent years.
My love for travel can never subside. I am glad to be associated as a Creative Advisor and Travel Influencer to SOLARTRIPS. Look forward to collaborating with PICTAS Collective and be a host in my homeland, India.
My professional career of 22 years in Information Technology Solutions and Services shall now pave way for consulting in the areas of emerging technologies that can impact and aim to resolve local or global issues.
The journey thus far would not have been possible without love and guidance from my parents, and special bonding with my loving wife and 10 year old daughter.
I feel that it is a privilege to represent India and be associated with Pictas Collective, an amazing consortium of international photographers. On Pictas, I look forward to sharing with you my favorite moments in portraiture (contextual), cityscapes (heritage and urban architecture, street photography), landscapes, macro and abstract/conceptual themes.
There’s a lot of untapped potential and talent in India. As Creative Head, I will aspire to grow PICTAS in India with its unique portfolio of services and projects.
