Jayendra Ramanjooloo

Jayendra "Jay" Ramanjooloo is a Dubai-based Nikon photographer originally from Mauritius Island. He started learning the basic controls of his D-SLR in January 2013. A fast learner and self-taught photographer, he has yet to attend a workshop or photography course and has mostly learned different techniques by watching videos online. He is most passionate about landscape photography. 

"My favourite moments to shoot landscapes and seascapes are the so-called Golden Hours. My job gives me the opportunity to travel the world every week and this gives me the chance to discover new spots for shooting. I try to take photos that are a fusion of dream and reality.”
