"I’m struck by how light and color reshape the law school’s modern geometry. The shifting skies, reflections, and autumn trees bring warmth to a space defined by order and discipline. I try to capture that interplay between structure and life, between the permanence of the building and the movement of people and nature around it. My photographs aim to express that duality: the calm rigor of law set against the ever-changing rhythm of life. I look for depth in the ordinary, because, much like in law, a small change in perspective can reveal an entirely new way of seeing." -Bhartendu Bhaskar LL.M. '26 Bhaskar studied Computer Science engineering before transitioning to law. He enjoys photography, writing poetry and short fiction, and running. While he has lived across India in Vellore, Kolkata, Delhi, and Guwahati, he calls Darjeeling home. #BerkeleyLaw #LawSchool #Photography
