Welcome to the photographic world of ABHIJIT DEY. A welcome tendered warm and white, with my works that hope to offer photoaholics refuge in the recluse of summer night, and sleepy retreat to the winter sun. Happy journey!

Photography was not something that ran in my family, nor I was very fond of cutting edge gadgetry. But the sight of the proverbial magic lantern always made my fingers fidget. It was more of curiosity than ambition that I took up amateur photography in 1993 with a second hand Yashica SLR camera.

Months passed as I fiddled with my newfound muse, before the urge to learn serious photography drove me to the PHOTOGRAPHIC ASSOCIATION OF DUMDUM, where the great Benu Sen, the photo artist, initiated me to the secrets of the trade. It was his inspiration, relentless training, and my spiralling confidence in the sleight of camera, that eventually spun the world of photos around me. In 2007, my learning curve hit a purple patch as I was honored an ARTIST FOR THE INTERNATIONAL DEL’ART PHOTOGRAPHY ( A.F.I.A.P.) from France.

I regularly participate the national and international salons of photography, win awards if judges happen to like my pictures, and still try to learn from my past and passivity alike.

I am particularly interested in economies of human geography, portraiture, escapades in landscape and surrealistic pictorial photography.
