Q. What sort of challenges did you face, considering the intermittent tension in that region?
A. It was very easy to capture these images. The locals were very cooperative and camera-friendly. There was barely any tension felt around the area I was in, and after talking to the locals, they, on their own revealed that the media makes the tension out to be more than what it actually is.

Q. Do you think you’ve been able to successfully complete what you set out to achieve with this project?
A. A photograph is a moment frozen in time and these moments become rare based on how great the photo is along with the time and setting it was taken in. Through a photograph, one can cherish that rare memory over and over again.
