Hello!
Who are the well known Indian art photographers?
* I have seen & enjoyed remarkable photographs of Jyoti Bhatt, Akbar Padamsee, and Paresh Maity.
* Others include Riyas Komu, Amita Dube, Vivian Sundram, Rajeev Lochan and Shibu Arakkal(is doing relatively well from the start of his career, son of Yusuf Arakkal).
* Occasionally artists too experiment like Laxman Aelay, Fawad Tamkanat, DLN Reddy, and Rammana Reddy.
Few photos are uploaded for those who have never seen them!

How are prices determined for photographs?
* These reflect on the edition size again similar to limited edition, very often the edition size is less than 10 and some are single edition prints of one size.
What are the demographics and of collectors and what drives them to collect photos?
* Usually corporates go for these since they are easier to handle and also to afford them.
Where is photography in the world of art?
* Little ahead of infant stage.........
Do collectible or art photographs have a particular size?
* Nope (some prints are customized to your order)
Are older photos more valuable than recent ones?
* Depends on the subject > geographic representation keep changing and photography was meant to document these changes so an old photograph of 'Mumbai's Marine drive scene' without clutter would be more valuable than recent photo of visual pollution i would say.....
Are touched up photos closer to ‘art’?
* This will be a big discussion to follow.....
A lot of young people are experimenting with pure "tearing up of photos and creating Art" so from my side i wish to make no comments..........
I am also learning and wish to learn more and more .......
