Indira University takes on an adventurous spree as The Capture Crew sets out to explore the art of photography to dive into the heart of nature. In a world where we spend most of our time surrounded by screens, notifications and almost identical routines, stepping outdoors becomes a reminder of how alive the world truly is. And what better way to reconnect with the earth, the sky and the city’s soul than through the lens of a camera?

That energy came to life when The Capture Crew presented “Pune City Golden Hour Glow”, a special sunrise photography session conducted by renowned photographer and cinematographer Mr. Ranjan Zingade. Held on 18th November 2025, from 6:30 AM onwards at Shaniwar Peth, this experience invited students to witness Pune waking up; slowly, gently and beautifully.

The golden hour is known to turn ordinary frames into poetry and the students discovered just that. From soft rays touching ancient walls to the city stirring with early morning life, every moment felt like a painting unfolding in real time. Under Mr. Zingade’s guidance, students learned how to compose portraits that feel alive, capture motion that feels effortless and use natural light in ways that make every picture breathe emotion.

Their visit to Shaniwar Peth became the highlight of the morning. As the sun rose behind its historic architecture, students experimented with angles, shadows and reflections, discovering how to capture the true essence of Pune, its heritage, culture and morning charm. Many shared how they learned to observe the little details they usually miss: the colour of the sky, the stillness of old stones, the play of shadows on streets, and how light transforms the ordinary into something unforgettable.

This was a moment of reflection for students to reconnect with the world outside, something we all need today. Spending time in the wilderness, even within a bustling city, restores the mind and inspires creativity. It reminds us to pause and appreciate the beauty around us. And capturing these fleeting moments through a lens makes the experience even more meaningful, transforming memories into frames that last forever.

As the sun rose higher and the city came fully alive, one thing became clear that nature has its own way of teaching, healing and inspiring. And for the students of Indira University, this golden hour adventure became a moment to rediscover joy and the simple pleasure of watching the world wake up.
