I sent this reply to a Indi Blogger contact who sent me a message I am now publicly repplying to him and to all of you, I thank each one of you who has read my Indivine posts I am indeed indebted to all of you .. everyone of you and I am grateful to Renie Ranvin and his team for this holistic healing platform.. that unites all of us ..

 

I thank you for your message to me , I make it a point to read a few posts of Indi Blogger young members , it is the need of the hour to encourage nurture young bloggers and guide them otherwise just being  one of the major contributors to IndiVine posts would be incomplete and redundant ..

I dont know most of you but whenever I get time I browse through your posts and I regret I dont add feedback as I have no time at all...earlier I had my own fashion store had lot of time but now I work for another person I hold a very responsible job , but I love Indibloggers keeps me in touch with my roots .. and all of you..

I wish all you guys the very best I regret I am not much into science , Net related blogs my subjects being story telling through images via street photography ,poetry  but any time you need my advise dont hesitate I will certainly respond ..

 

 

Take care As Ever Firoze Shakir

I knew nothing about blogging in 2005 and whatever I am today I owe to good friends and one of them is none  other than Deepak Magic Eye .. I type with one finger , and blogging made a me a poet a writer of sorts and documentarist of people on the dark side of the moon..

Thank you Subhorup

 

I am a documentarist of human life and pain , pain that is equal to all of us ..we may see it and perhaps not feel it.. but it enguls the soul of my camera the soul of my poetry.. I add text poetize itin some cases or leave is as is where is..and it is this pain this street life my 4 year old grand daughter Marziya Shakir  shoots too.. our mind is a huge compact camera digitally stealing the soul of the people we shoot and it is this art as photograpgraphy I am now teaching my 11 month old grand daughter Nerjis Asif Shakir..

We are not intimidated at all by  celebrity photographers , my daughter my wife my sons almost eveybody uses the camera as poetically as Iuse it too.

 

Take Care

thank you bushra..if we dont encourage others , youngsters , new bloggers , newbies than actual meaning of blogging loses its intrinsic essence .. i blog through pictures as poetry and life is poetry, short sweet sometimes episodic.. of late i am encouraging my two year grand daughter nerjis  to shoot pictures without getting initimidated by the camera or the person she shoots 

merry xmas to all of you at indiblogger
