About the Mentor:

Ajay Talwar has pursued and grown in his passion of photographing the night skies, deep sky and nightscapes for over three decades, He has begun his journey in astrophotography with deep sky photography, using telescopes and later his interest shifted to photographing the night sky in TWAN style, which consists of the elements of the night sky and earth.

He is the most prolific transient sky events photographer in India. One of his early accomplishments was to produce an exhibition of all Messier objects along with three other Indian astrophotographers. Ajay travels with all his astrophotography gear to all across India, especially the Himalayas, places like high altitude Indian Astronomical Observatory at Hanle, Ladakh, high peaks in Himachal Pradesh. His interest in dark skies also takes him to the white desert in northwestern India. Through his TWAN contribution, Ajay hopes to photograph many of India's heritage under the starry sky.
