About

Statement:

“My photograph may be yours indeed, In framing and tone,

If in its composition you can read, A music of your own;

If in its pale woof you can weave, Your lovelier design,

Then my dear friend, It is more yours than mine.

I’m but a prompter at the best; Crude cues are all I give.

In simple stanzas I suggest – It is you who make them live.

Yours is the beauty that you see, In any photograph I take;

The magic and the melody, It is you, dear friend, who make.

Yea, by the glory and the gleam, The loveliness that lures

Your thought to starry heights of dream,

The photograph’s yours. “

I am grateful to Robert William Service for writing, Your poem. In it, he elucidated his thoughts about his poems, which are in-agreement to the way I feel about my photographs.

Rusy Singh … Born and raised in India, currently working in Houston-Texas as a business analyst.

My work contains a wide variety of motifs with main focus on street, abstract and documentary genre. I seek to demonstrate wide eyed openness to whatever passes in front of my camera.
