Hi, I'm Ranga!!
I am a PhD student in Computer Science at CU Boulder, where much of my time is spent on research, teaching, and study, but photography has remained a constant creative outlet over the years. After moving to the United States, I found myself drawn more deeply into landscape photography, returning often to places like the Boulder Flatirons to experience and capture them under different light, weather, and seasons. Photography allows me to slow down and engage with the world in a different way, balancing the technical nature of my work with a more intuitive and visual form of expression.
My work focuses on landscapes and wildlife, from expansive mountain vistas to intimate details that are often overlooked, with occasional portraits woven into the environment rather than isolated from it. I am especially drawn to moody conditions, dramatic light, and shifting skies, believing that challenging weather often creates the most compelling images. Inspired by photographers like David Yarrow and Magnus Berggren, I aim to create images that feel immersive and emotionally resonant, capturing not just how a place looks, but how it feels to be there.
