Dr. Barua, a chemist and professor by profession, loves to travel. No matter where he goes his camera is his constant companion. He enjoys taking photographs of people and places of interest. He sometimes focuses his lens on the obvious, and other times the subtleties, but always captures the magic.

I have been lucky enough to visit these places, and even though I cannot share the beauty of these places in their entirety, I want to still do my best to shine a light on the wonders of this world.""
