Neelendra Nath | Travel Photography

I've been doing this travel photography thing for a while now. Neelendra Nath is just me, really, working out of Birla Lines. Most days I'm not even here, though. I'm usually out somewhere with a camera bag that’s way too heavy for my back. When I do get back to the office, it’s mostly just sorting through thousands of files and trying to remember where exactly I took that one shot of the mountain. It gets quiet around here, which is nice after being in crowded stations or busy markets. The space is filled with old hard drives and prints that I haven’t gotten around to framing yet. People ask if I ever get tired of the travel, and sometimes I do, especially the long bus rides. But then you see the light hit something just right, and it’s worth it. My desk is a mess of lens caps and empty coffee mugs. It’s not a fancy studio or anything like that. Just a place to dump the gear and get the work done before the next trip. Birla Lines is a decent spot to be based, pretty central for when I need to head to the airport or the station. I don't really have a big team or a slick office setup. It's just me and my cameras, trying to capture things as they are. This life isn't for everyone, but I like it just fine.
