About the Author
Manoj Balotia
Originally from the land of spices, India; currently settled in the land of opportunities, America. I grew up in a family where the resources were scarce but love & care was in abundance. At the age of 10 I got my father's film camera, one of the greatest inheritance, I would call. I still have it and I feel like his soul is still with me in form of his camera.
During childhood I developed an inclination towards various art forms including pencil sketching, clay models, poetry, and making paper crafts. No matter what art form I get myself involved into, my work tends to focus on subjects that are pleasing to my heart and my mind.
In short I am-
“An art lover with a big camera backpack and a huge tripod on shoulders; traveling like nomads, quenching thirst of the camera’s eyes”
That’s Me :-)
