The Indian
Photography Festival (IPF), which will started on September 8 in Hyderabad, Madhapur,
the
festival spreads its wings wider this time with 525 photographers from
40 countries.
Pitched as a non-profit initiative by the Light Craft Foundation in association with Telangana Tourism, the fest brings together images across a spectrum of genres, from portraits to landscape, abstracts to news photographs. The photo fest is built in collaboration with photo agencies across the globe to facilitate cultural exchange. “This helps our photographers, particularly from Hyderabad, to showcase their work abroad.
