    Nikhilesh Mahakur " Nikhil", a true blue Capricorn, born on the 1st of January, educated with a bachelors degree in Electronics engineering, and a MBA from Xavier’s Institute of Management, currently based at Bangalore , India An IT professional and an avid traveler, with an inherent passion for photography. The passion for photography has been a learning experience and will continue to be an ethical journey of learning with new experiences trying to capture “Life” and it’s moments ‘as is’. Having indulged in serious photography over the last seven years, my primary interest lies in wildlife and people photography. I still use film bodies occasionally for portraiture. Life so far and going ahead, with my experiences with photography has been and will continue to be a learning experience which I shall strive to share with all and hope to make a difference especially for wildlife.
