Asaf said this achievement is not only for me but also for our country. Hailing from Akkelpur upazila of Joypurhat, he is an engineer by profession.
Asaf started his participation in photo exhibitions and competitions in 2014.  Since then, he has received one award after another presenting Bangladesh to the world.
He participated in several photography contests in Italy, Kazakhstan, Nepal, India and other countries.
He also had a solo exhibition titled 'Spirit of Faith' organized by Aurora Vision and the 21st Religion Today Film Festival in Italy while he got the Best Photographer Award.
Talking about his photography journey, Asaf said, "I got a 1.3-megapixel mobile phone from my uncle in 2008, then I used to pick whatever I liked, even then I did not know the meaning of images and photographs.
After buying the first Semi-SLR camera in 2012, I started studying online, doing various workshops, learning to hang out with senior photographers, he added.
