Howrah Bridge, by Sanak Roy Choudhury

If anyone mentions Kolkata, the first place that comes to the mind is Howrah Bridge. While visiting Kolkata, Howrah Bridge tops the list of places to see in the city. I tried to capture this marvelous piece of engineering from 1 of the adjacent jetty ghats on the banks of the river Ganges on a beautiful sunset at the backdrop.

Sanak Roy Choudhury works as an clinical optometrist and research assistant at a reputed eye hospital in Oman. He likes to travel around and invariably loves capturing any interesting situation under any given circumstances. Although he was never very serious about photography his interest gradually started to convert to a passion which resulted him to acquire a DSLR on sept 2012. His baby steps started since then and slowly and steadily he started to understand the domain of photography and managed to grow immense interest in the fascinating world of photography. Sanak loves to class himself as an amateur and always strives to attain perfection on whatever he captures.
Today he has achieved many small recognition’s and managed to win several photography contests but his desire to learn and explore more remains a hunger to be fulfilled. Sanak does regret today after exploring to this splendid domain for missing some vital opportunities in his yesteryear’s of travel.
