I am overwhelmed with the response that the KINGFISHER Swimsuit Special has received in the past and in its current edition. The 2008 edition is on a larger canvas as compared to last year’s. The challenges were numerous and the scope limitless considering the exquisite landscapes of Ladakh, Udaipur, Andaman and Goa.

Having received several personal queries about the calendar via e-mail and other mediums, I decided to answer your questions or concerns – right here. This space is dedicated to aspirants who feel passionately about the art of photography, the exciting career in modelling and the fundamentals of aesthetics.
