Meeting Steve McCurry — A Legend Behind the Lens

Meeting Steve McCurry was not just a moment, it was a lifetime memory. His photographs don’t just capture images — they breathe life. If life itself had a visual diary, Steve McCurry’s work would be the closest reflection of it.

His photographs makes me smile, makes me cry, makes me ponder, makes me think, makes me wonder, makes me jealous & makes me unlearn everything. I m so fortunate to have met this Legend & stand next to him. When I met him I didn’t knew the stature he carries & neither i had seen much of his work except ‘ Afghan Girl’ pic. With each passing day .. with seeing each of his photographs .. I am zapped & I wonder what makes this man tick and gets to click such wonderful moments. I dont see technique there .. what i see is his love, his passion, his hard work, his zest to get a frame which speaks volumes in many levels of emotions.

Photography se technique seekhi ja sakti hai, lekin jazba sirf dil se aata hai. Steve McCurry ne humein yeh sikhaya ki tasveer sirf lens se nahi, rooh se banayi jaati hai. Umeed hai ke yeh mulaqat aur unka kaam hamesha mujhe aur aap sabko inspire karta rahega.

Dont know if one can learn photography seeing anyone’s work .. but yes one thing which one can learn and imbibe seeing his work is Passion.
Thank’s Steve for making me more passionate in the passion I follow.
