Famous Photographers

It is said that ‘a picture speaks a thousand words’. What we cannot express through our words can easily be conveyed through mediums like photos or paintings. Photography is a part of your daily life and is just an extension of watching something through your eyes. Be it newspapers or magazines, TV or internet, you will always see words emphasized through the medium of photographs. This is because the visual medium has always been found to have more effect than any other one. Though many people aspire to be photographers, few have the talent for the same and even fewer receive recognition for their talent. In the following lines, we have given the list of photographers that have shot to fame in India.
