Shot something special last weekend 🔥
Swipe to the end for the Light Painting Shot 🤙🏻🔥
Had the privilege of capturing India’s official launch of the all-new Desmo 450 MX by @ducati | @ducati_india , their first-ever motocross machine at @bigrockdirtpark
And trust me… this machine is absolutely a MONSTER 😈
The Desmo 450 MX comes packed with a 449.6cc single-cylinder engine, pushing out ~63 hp, paired with Ducati’s signature Desmodromic valve system, something you rarely (almost never) see on a motocross bike. Lightweight, aggressive, and built to rev hard, exactly what you would expect from Ducati stepping into MX.
Riders from across India showed up to witness the launch and throw a leg over this beast on the dirt. Watching it rip through the track was pure adrenaline. Loud, Raw, and unapologetically fast.
This isn’t just another bike launch… this is Ducati entering motocross with intent 💥🔥🤌🏻

Printed. Published. Just getting started. 🔥🤘🏻
So, I finally made it officially into Autocar India @autocar_india (print edition)
One of my photographs from the @vroomdragmeet , shot in Hosur with my @sonyalphain A7M3 this December, now lives on paper — not just pixels.
For a motorsport photographer, print hits different.
It’s validation.
It’s responsibility.
And most importantly — it’s the beginning of a much bigger picture.
Grateful. Focused. Hungry for what’s next.

Some weekends don’t just end… they stay with you.
.
Xtreme Enduro was one of those.
Dust in the lungs, arms screaming, mind negotiating with the body — just one more section.
Everything I could capture with the beast @sonyalphain
A7M3
.
Got the chance to meet the Dakar legend @cssantosh and his incredible team @vijendrabheema@rohilsykes@suhaskallavi@ghumakkad.babu at @bigrockdirtpark . Watching them up close hits different — Pure focus, discipline, and respect for the trail.
.
This weekend taught me something simple but powerful:
- Don’t fight the trail.
- Don’t look for an exit when it gets hard.
- Keep your eyes up and ride through it.
.
Because the moment you think of giving up — that’s usually where the learning begins.
High josh. Dirty boots. Clear mind.
.
Grateful for the experience, the people, and the lessons.
This one’s going to stay for a long time. 🏁🔥

When light meets speed 😎🤙🏻🔥
Shot this the night before the official launch of the Desmo 450 MX by @ducatiblr at @bigrockdirtpark .
After a long day of shooting machines and riders pushing limits, the arena finally went silent. Lights out. Bikes parked. The Italian beauty ready to rest.
But something felt unfinished.
With just a tripod, my @sonyalphain camera, and the flashlight from my @googlepixel phone, I decided to experiment. In complete darkness, I painted light over the bike, just enough to reveal its form, while sketching motion into the background.
20 seconds. One frame. No room for error.
And somehow, it all came together with pure instinct.
