Happy Clicking!

 How My Photography Keeps me Healthy and Happy

I started my wildlife photography journey since January 2020. At first with beginner's photography gear like a Canon 600d with 70-300mm telephoto lens to capture the beauty of birds only. Birds with colorful feather, their flying style and their feeding habits attract me so much. I was very fond of freeze the moments of bird's fabulous activities.


Mental Health

To capture the birds photos I have to walk on my foot quite a long distance even run behind the bird. Basically I am a 9-5 desk job holder in banking industry. This walking opportunity at weekends keeps my body more fit. This maneuver with birds helps me to be exposed under the Sun. My skin become Sun-tanned. We all know that sunlight helps to produce Vitamin-D inside our body. Astonishingly I found that, my colleagues are more vulnerable to seasonal flues and the catch cold frequently. But my body developed resistance against those.   

Mental Wellness

Four Happy Hormones ie. Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin and Endorphin are directly associated with my photography. After a successful bird walk I feel accomplishment of a nice work that is rewarding to me. This reward feeling increase the secretion of Dopamine Hormone.

Positive Vibes

The Serotonin the mood stabilizer chemical releases with sun expose, running and being in nature. All these activities done with my wildlife photography. The painkiller hormone Endorphin also releases with exercise or physical activity. Thus my photography helps me to live a healthy and happy life.

Happy Clicking.

Stay Healthy.                                               

Be Happy.

Hitting the Gym after Office — My Real-life Experience

Image
Recently I've transferred to my new posting in a big metropolitan city. I am doing my 10/6 teaching cum coordinating job at a training institute of banking sector. Most of the time I make class schedule and class lecture sitting on my desk. More or less the whole day I have to keep my eyes on my workstation screen. Working with files, send invitation letters, coordination and communication with guest speakers. Tiny pink sticky notes take my attention to do the important jobs next. Thus a  hectic day passed  with  work load on wooden chair of my office. The outdoor weather or sky color invisible to me due to heavy curtain of my office room. Even I can’t hear the sound of rain.  At the end of the day it makes me totally exhausted and deadly tired. Most of the day evening passes away and night begins already. So I failed to see the sunlight after office. This daily routine made me unhappy, mind become dull and down. Unable to find stamina for next day office.  Such...

Since last year, I’ve been forgetting things more often in my daily life

Image
It was mid day of July, I was working on my office desk. Suddenly my cell phone 'beep-beep', my wife on other side. She told me to bring some daily needs from nearby grocery shop after office. When I reached home and give the grocery pack to her it was found that I missed two necessary items. She got little bit angry. Now a days I fail to recall the name of my school and college buddies frequently. This is not happening from many more years but since about last year only. I was little bit worried about my memory.   Today morning when I opened my workstation at my workplace an MSN article displayed on my screen from PC's task bar,  Your brain starts shrinking after 40: here's what to do. After go through the article a silent smile bloomed on my face.  Last year I completed my 40th year station of my life journey. All secretes and consequences are stand behind the number. Since Last year my eye specialist suggested me to use reading glass at the time to read. For this ...
