Born in Kerala, India Mani is currently working in United Kingdom as a Neuroradiologist at the Walton centre in Liverpool. While in India he traveled a lot to the Nepal and Indian Himalayas and it was here that he fell in love with the landscape and the mountains.
For the last 10 years Mani has tried to capture the beauty of the landscape through photography and to this end he feel it is going to be a life long journey. His style of photography allows him to combine his love for the outdoors and solitude.
In UK his favourite locations are Lake District and North yorkshire. Mani also goes to India twice a year to take landscape and travel pictures.
“I get a lot of support and encouragement from my wife Rhitu and my father without whom I would not be able to combine my profession and photography”.
Mani’s immediate photographic aim is to produce a book on Kerala, showing its beautiful landscape and traditional way of life.
