Sonargaon

Sonargaon

Sonargaon, an old Moghul King's kingdom from 1432 is a place that I've visited at least 5 times in my life. Who visits a national monument that many times, when it is at least 2.5 hours away from the city? Well, when you are in the this place, for a second you'll think that you've gone back in time. This entire district has been more or less preserved for historical value, so when you walk past the main house, all the other buildings and houses that were lived in my support staff for the monarchy, are still standing. Its an archaelogical gem...

This angle in particular is my favourite, and I've taken this shot at least a few times before, each time using a different technique to process (hoping its an improvement each time).

Projects

The Tattoo Project
In this project, I have tried to take portraits of people with their tattoos, proudly showing the part the tattoos play in their lives.

Bangladesh
My country gets a lot of bad rep, and the only news you hear about it are about floods, cyclones, tragedies, political turmoil, etc. Its not what I remember growing up. I wanted to show a country that has so much more to offer than the sum of its statistics.
