funny surajit and your analogy of indian roads vs european rd and for that matter ambassador versus mercedes would be apt...
becuase not all who show cases here have the 5000 dollars equipment budget nor are they in paid salaried positions where part of their job is to take photographs for department and publications... thats the european road and mercedes. we are in the indian road and ambassador territory with the point and shoot cameras or the bridge cameras and non-botanist citizen naturalist taking pictures... two different creatures ... two life forms of photography.. two avatars so to say... but to be serious, i think Mr garg's original question was to nail down ONE best photographers. but more I think about it... I think several come to mind... may be that's the learning process for the aam aadmi.. which are in the majority in a forum like this. something to think about. usha di On Sun, Nov 2, 2014 at 9:12 AM, J.M.
