LUDHIANA: German-born American photographer had once said Alfred Eisenstaedt, “When I have a camera in my hand, I know no worry.” Photography has the ability to stir the deepest emotions and this concept has brought 100 like-minded other people together to form a group referred to as Onepix.

The members no longer most effective pursue their passion for the lens but in addition are train the art.
New starting

Around 50% of the members belong to the business community, 30% are professionals including medical doctors, engineers and bankers and 15% work in the personal sector. five% of our members are students, said Manoj Gupta, a businessman of Model Town and member of Onepix.
Whereas most of the members are from Ludhiana, there are a couple of lensmen who hail from Jammu, Moga and Phagwara. All the members have professional cameras.
Walk the talk
Gupta said the main purpose at the back of the formation of the crowd was once to carry people who share a common passion and help them bond. “We cling a photograph stroll each Sunday during which the members go to various puts to click on footage. While taking footage, we discuss the various strategies of taking pictures a shot. We also discuss new advancements in photography and equipment,” he said.
After the picture stroll, the members delight in sumptuous breakfast together. The members inform TOI that amidst their high-stressful jobs, these picture walks help them to de-stress.
Apart from picture walks in Ludhiana, the group has travelled to puts reminiscent of Triund in Himachal Pradesh, Varanasi (for Dev Deepawali), Barsana (for Holi) to capture surprising pictures.
They have also gone for picture walks in Rose Garden, Leisure valley, Nurpur, Mattewara, Sarai Kale Khan and Namdhari Memorial in Malerkotla. Some members have also travelled to Ladakh, Kashmir, Lahaul-Spiti to quench their thirst for photography.
For the sake of art

After the of completion of our picture walks, we upload our pictures on social networking sites. This attracts the attention of other aspiring photographers,” said Ankush Jain, an industrialist of Barewal, and a member of the crowd.
