ABOUT ME:
I am a freelance photographer from India. My passion is photographing people because faces and stories behind them, life styles, various cultures and traditions fascinates me. I would like to capture as many different faces as I can. I like wandering the streets for hours looking for something that holds my attention and I also spend time learning and understanding my subjects. It also goes without saying that “I shoot what I like”.
Trance music, coffee (♥ OldTown White Coffee), traveling, animals, motorbikes, beer and martial arts are few of my other loves.
I am available for assignments and commissioned works. Click here to contact me.
If you would like to buy a print of any of the images please do get in touch with me.

How?
CB runs a contest for you every month and if you think you have a picture that fits the contest theme, pit yourself against the rest of the users to find out. While participating in the contest you can also judge other entries and vote for them too. The picture that bags the maximum votes from the users and the panel of experts is adjudged the winner.

Hello, someone sended me your website. I had to say something to you, like feedback. I hope you take it in right way. As a viewer i found it irritating which titles you chose for your pictures. I mean its almost a illustration of what you see, but not always. Some people on picture are so immens beautiful and then you write it’s a hard life, as a title. I didnt get it.
But all the best with your passion, very nice the way of using light in your photos.

Dear Mr. Daniel
you are blessed with the all seeing eye. In fact i felt a little guilty when i browsed through your site because i am experiencing such joy, when something captivates you and leaves you speechless, for free.
The first thing i noticed is the sharpness of your eye. Then came the riot of colors. The black and whites are like iron which will never catch rust. A novice photographer myself, but i know when to take my hats off when i see a master. hats off!
i see you have become quite a sensation with your photography with fans following you from all over the world… both your blog and facebook fan page are hits with loyal followers …your are appreciated for your variety and depth of quality in your pics … the core message of your pics and the message it brings … sometimes through your pics we see the hard reality which we otherwise forget .. some being educative ones ..and some downright glamorous.. others being cute and innocent.. mostly every pic offers a different feel every time u upload them
it was good to see you changing your focus to people photography especially focusing on street and it was worthwhile to see the quality and depth your pics brings … n now every pic is like a sensation …
wish you all success and happiness .. hope this grows bigger than this … n u deserve all the appreciation your getting and .. your deserve a hell lot more …
take care …. and continue giving your followers what they always look for .. quality and superb photography … you have always given something different from the usual blogs…. so be different …. be you because thats what differentiates your blog from the rest..
proud of you and happy for you
cheers!!
Hi Joshi:
further details, if u respond..
I was really mesmerized by your fotos..U have magic in your clicks.. U can reach greater heights.. God be with you!! I would be proud to have you as a friend!!
cheers!
Hi Daniel
I saw your porfolio.Its amazing. Keep up the good work.
Not sure if you do wedding photography, but if you do, please let me know of your availability for covering my wedding in Bombay on the 26th June this year.
Would be great to see a wedding portfolio and your prices.
Hope you do do weddings:)
Thanks.

Hi Daniel – came across your blog via a comment of yours on my blog and when I opened your website – I’ve been blown away. Infact, I’d say its a true pleasure to get a comment from an artist of your stature. Your captures are mind blowing – especially some of the B&W portraits are such that they’d stick into your head for long times to come.
I gave a quick look at your blog and I do intend to search and read a lot more about you and read your photos in detail.
Great going sir!
Sheer pleasure to get to see your blog.

Thank you once again, I can really relate to your work…not that I know anything about photography…So far I have written about things I have gone through in life… and link myself to your photographs….maybe targeting men is not the answer to my questions…sometime I am going to request you to let me use one of your photographs for a write up….Take care and all the best…Alpana
These photos depict real life in every sense. Every picture that I browsed has a story to tell and I could figure out the expression which is so vivacious in each work of art. Great work and very nice to meet a superb gem like u.
Congratulations Danny and wishing you all the very best. God bless.

Hello Joshi,
We just wanted to stop by and let you know that we love what you’re doing, the photos are glorious. Great work! We also wanted to offer up a way for us to work together.
Who are we? We’re two London based editors with deceptively French sounding names. We travel, read and engage in projects across the board a lot and we know how difficult it can be to find inspiring content be it music to politics, arts to science.
So we’re doing something about it by starting ChorusandEcho.com. C+E is way to give our readers informed access to ideas and cities across the World, while at the same time giving our family of contributors a far larger audience and an opportunity for them to make a little bit (but hopefully a lot!) more money from their content.
We have spent months pouring over thousands upon thousands of blogs and sites and have decided to launch in 20 cities with a handful of blogs in each. We would love to work with you here in London, there in Mumbai and beyond. We would use the content you post up on your blog, so there’s no extra work for you at all. At the same time you would be credited for any content, which means extra traffic for joshidaniel.com.
If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch with either of us.
Let us know if you’re up for getting involved!
Luc Le Corre and Jean-Robert.
Hey! I met you at the kala ghoda festival the other day. I guess, Saturday. Nice pics. You could have a look at this http://www.flickr.com/photos/36877022@N00/sets/72157625785416213/
I am an architect, but have been shooting for a few years now.. very random stuff, more during travel. There are other sets too.
If you haven’t placed me, I’m the girl with a big cane basket who dint have place to keep your card.
Amazing collection of photographs !!
A picture is worth a million words..
Me han encantado tus fotos, el tema de personajes es un tema que me atrae mucho. Aprovecho la oportunidad de dar a conocer mi blog desde un sitio tan alejado, soy residente en Mallorca (España):
http://miquelriutort.blogspot.com
Muchas gracias y enhorabuena por tus imágenes.
Joshi,
I need your advice!!
I’m looking for buying an entry level camera. I need it for taking pictures of properties and apartments for posting in my website
http://www.tvmdata.com/house-flats-villas-commercial-space-sale-rent-trivandrum.php?addid=3704
The camera is for rough use and in future, it will be used by my marketing person.
I did googling and found one ( Canon power shot A2200):

Hi, thanks for the ‘like’ on my John Lennon post. You have some incredible photographs here. You capture mood and emotion very well, cheers, Mark.
I model for fun, and I must tell you that you do a great job at capturing the person. Love the mendhi/naked shot! I have GOT to do that myself. If you are ever in the US and need a free model, let me know!
Dear Mr. Daniel, I am an artist living in Canada, am an admirer of your work, and would like to copy one of your photographs as an oil painting. I am specifically looking at the close up of the hands of the Dadar flower market rose seller. I would like to know know how I can obtain permission to render that image in oil.
Thank you,
Regards

It is a little difficult to read what you wrote. I had to select and highlight to be able to read. Can you do something about it?
Your photos are superb! I guess you like black n white… Happy clicking (n sharing too…)
You are an extremely talented photographer Mr. Daniel. For some strange reason, most of your black and white photos remind me of Ansel Adams, even if I am not looking at landscapes! Please keep the fires burning…

Hello!
My name is Ellice Cook and I am a student doing the Higher School Certificate (final year of schooling) in Australia, studying Visual Arts. Our coarse requires us to create a Body of Work throughout the year, and I created a collection of works, a series of eight images related to my concept, mediums ranging from painting and drawing to photography. While researching, I came across your work and was greatly inspired. One aspect of my work is an appropriation of your image ‘Smile of a Sadhu’ as a painting, in which I have given (and will continue to give) full acknowledgement to you as the source to this particular aspect of my Body of Work.
I have been honoured by having my work nominated for “Art Express”- the New South Wales HSC Visual Arts Showcase, which displays the best works of the year, but I am only able to display my work with written consent from you as the original artist of your image before the 31st of December. Therefore I sincerely ask for your permission to display my artwork in the gallery. If you do consent your name will be publicized with my artwork. As this is an unexpected honour, I have been put into the position to seek your approval with such short notice, therefore I apologise. If you have any questions, or would like to view my appropriation, please contact me
Thank you so much for your time! Love your work!
Yours sincerely,
Ellice Cook
thanks for liking my post on yarn bombing. ..

Mr Daniel
I’m Udayan Sankar Pal, a photographer residing in Visakhapatnam, India.
The reason I am sending this mail to you is because we have created an ARCHIVE of Photography Exhibitions. Aim of this Archive is to keep records of the exhibitions held worldwide & make this archive as resource for research. We do NOT use this archive for commercial purposes. I’m collecting since 2002 & the archive has more than 5000+ brochures in its collection from around the world. To this effect we would like your help. We would appreciate it very much if you could send to us the brochures/ flyers/ synopsis/ invitation cards of your past, ongoing or soon to be conducted photographic exhibitions.
You can visit our website at http://ape.threedots.in for more information. Kindly revert if you have any queries, I will be happy to answer them.
Our address:
Udayan Sankar Pal
Archive of Photography Exhibition

Visakhapatnam-530040, INDIA
Looking forward for your help and contribution to enrich this archive.
Regards,
Udayan S Pal.
Daniel! gr8 captures and subject.
Waiting for more… Mainly I loved this blog presentation…theme & b/w photos!
carry on the good work.
Thoroughly enjoyed viewing your images. Each line in the creased faces, each taught muscle in the martial arts expert’s body, tells many stories. If you have an exhibition in bangalore, let me know. Will try to write a magazine feature.
Your work is amazing. I see the comments on your blog and realize how many people feel the same way. It feels fairly pointless to comment on your pictures individually, since they are all so powerful, and perfectly executed. I try and learn from each of them (I am an amateur clicker too).
Hi Daniel,
your photo blog is truly amazing. A very dear friend and I have started a FB page by the name of ‘Moonlighting by the Sufi Masroof’. Swati’s beautiful pictures compliment my poetry and our combined passions is creating great music. may I request you to go through this link and if you like it, please recommend it to likeminded people, who enjoy photography and would love to read where the artist comes from.
The reason I write to you is that your art is brilliant and thought provoking and thats exactlt what we have set out to do. Need your help and spreading the word to the right people.
The link:

Apprecaite your help.

Wonderful work. You are great photograph ! Congratulations !
Hi, Josh! Your masterly B&W photographs bring forth in my mind magnificent images of the great Raghu Rai. When I look at any photograph clicked by you I happen to keep looking at it as if mesmerised by its beauty. Am only an amateur and evolving photographer, a contributor to deviantArt website, but frank enough to share with you that your photographs under Fashion category, excepting one or two, have not impressed me as your photographs in all other categories. Trust you are great enough to either note or ignore my, a lay person’s observation. Keep growing and be happy. Gurudatt

Hi,
My name is Amanda Erickson, I’m an editor over at the Atlantic’s urban affairs website, Atlantic Cities. We run a regular feature called Postcard, where we highlight photos of a particular city by a photographer who specializes in that place. This week, we’re featuring work from East Asia. I was wondering if I might be able to showcase a picture from your blog, along with a write-up about the work you do? I’m happy to talk more – I’m at 202-266-7426 or this aerickson@theatlantic.com.
Best,
Amanda
hello sir,
i would love to know how you give this really amazing b$w effect to you photographs. Is it the camera or the editing. I would be really thankful if u teach me how to edit the pictures this way.
thanks.
Thank you for dropping by and ‘liking’ my post ‘Frosty morning 3′. As a result you introduced me to your own work. It would be patronising of me to comment on such photographic technical craftsmanship, but I can express a deep admiration for your ability to capture the inner essence of your subject, whether it is a person, event or situation. Your photos are inspirational. Thank you for taking the time and trouble to acknowledge my picture.
Your photos are incredible…astounding. Thank you for visiting my site today and letting me know you were there. I shall be visiting.
thanks for your like, it made me discover your blog. I like your black and white portrait a lot, and also like the color you choosed for a new beginning!
