Follow ups: (refer to intro questions on photography in the intro sets)
1.  Do you like to get your photographs clicked?
No, I am very camera shy and become very conscious.
2. 
Is it good to take a lot of photographs?
Photographs are mirrors of the past. They capture precious moments, which may otherwise be
forgotten. So, yes, I think it is good to take a lot of photographs. Also with the coming in of
digital cameras, it is not very expensive to click photographs. Later on, when you get time, you
can sort out which photo to keep and which to discard.
3. 
There are a lot of additions made to photographs these days. What attitude of people does this
show?
People want to look their best. Nowadays, people do a lot of editing on photographs. In my opinion,
it takes away the originality of the moment. Sometimes, people do such additions or changes
with wrong intentions. They may put someone’s face on someone else’s body. This may hurt the
sentiments or may even cause problems.

4. 
Is this going to affect the photographers and their working style?
Yes, of course. Photographers who know how to make subtle changes and make people look good
may become more popular and get more work. But, they should remain within some limits and
not make changes, which make everything look artificial.
5. 
Do people like digital photographs or printed photographs?
It is a matter of personal choice. Digital photographs don't occupy space and the person may store
thousands of them in ones computer or laptop. Printed photographs can be put on display in a
frame. But, one cannot have many of them
6. 
How will this change in the future?
This may change a lot. Digital photo frames are there in which a person can enjoy all photographs
while sipping tea. No one will have the time to open the traditional album and go through the
printed photographs.
7. 
Will photographs replace paintings in the future?
To a lot of extent, yes. But, not entirely. Paintings have their own personal touch. But it requires
special talent to make a painting that can look real. Moreover, paintings tend to be very
expensive as the cost of canvas and paints is also exorbitant nowadays. Photographs are much
cheaper.
8.  Would you like taking photos with strangers?
Yes, if want to befriend that stranger. It may develop friendships for a lifetime.
9.  What king of photograph would you like to hang in your bedroom?
Family photographs would be ideal for a bedroom. I am a very family oriented person. We are a
close knit family. I would like to see my family first thing I get up.

•  Helping others is a very good thing.
•  I have given and received help many times.
•  Here, I would like to talk about a situation, when I helped my friend in studies.
•  When I was in 10
th
, my friend Rahul suffered a sprain in his ankle while playing hockey in
the school.
•  He was advised strict bed rest for three weeks.
•  Our exams were very near and Rahul’s mother was very worried that he would fail this
time if he did not attend school.
•  So, I decided to help him as much as I could.
•  Every day after school, I would go to his house and update him with everything that was
done in school.
•  His mother was so happy with my efforts that she would prepare nice shakes or
something to eat for me everyday.
•  Perhaps, that was her way of thanking me.
•  I used to reach home very late, but when I told the reason, they were OK with it.
•  Then the exams came, and Rahul and I both scored above 80% marks.
•  I realised that in helping him, I had helped myself even more.
•  After this incident, Rahul and I became even more intimate friends.
•  Last month Rahul took his IELTS and scored 7 bands and has planned to go for higher
education in Canada.
•  Because of Rahul, my parents have also decided to send me to Canada for my higher
studies.
•  Earlier they were reluctant to send me.
•  When I helped him, then I did not know that it would have this far-reaching effect.
•  I have realised that helping others gives much more satisfaction than becoming selfish
and looking after one’s own interests.
