A big thanks to LoveMax and Ken Cool for churning out the excellent shots that you see in these pages.
Most of the shots have been taken by a Canon, though Lovemax uses a Nikon D70.

I can only put down in words and show you through pictures what I feel after acquiring the most potent weapon in my digital and gadget armoury - a Canon dSLR ( Digital SLR ). I had got it last year as a start line to embark in my new freelance career with BIKE India and CAR India magazines. I didnt know what I was missing until I actually started using it. The lens interchangeabilty, the incredible DOF and most importantly the ruggedness of the Canon 300D blew me away. I have used the camera in places like the Kunzum pass ( 15,000 ft above MSL ) and half an inch above the tarmac panning at speeds of over 100kmph in a car boot to catch the best of the growling superbikes around me. And that camera has never let me down. That is why Canon was my first choice for capturing the unlimited vistas which will be presented by India in the Great Indian Roadtrip. " And yes some philosophy from my side about Why God let us discover photography? ( Click on the 'bypass this message' to view it ).
