Ankur Vadvan

I am a nature photographer seeking a good position in a progressive company.Although I have learnt the basics of photography at the Fergusson College, Pune I am largely a self taught person.

I am very good at framing subject matter to capture desired images, and on focussing and adjusting camera settings on lighting, subject, and background.I have extensively photographed insects, micro beings, animals and flora and fauna and also done city night life photography.
