Conversations in winter

This is shot in Sultanpur National Park, Gurgaon

I loved to visit the park in the morning hours and absolutely enjoyed the fog and most there.

These are very common subjects, but the light and their placement wanted me to capture this.

This bird was constantly flying between the flowers trying to pollinate. I had to used the Burst mode to get this shot. Please do share your thoughts and feedbacks on the same.

Portrait of Oriental Darter

Pallikarnai Marshland is the place where I captured this image. Its a sequel of my previous post.

Idea behind the image:

I saw him perched on a branch in the middle of the lake. Since my position was a bit higher than the lake just by sitting on the ground i was able to get an eye level shot. At 1st I took some…

Look at the eyes; so intense! Err… owls are scary.
Look at the eyes; so innocent! Aww… owls are cute.

I was startled by the loud shriek of this spotted owlet. It was perched on a branch, that ran right above my head. It was an opportunity for a great close-up shot, but the angle was too steep. I walked backward till I got a…

Dream Shoot

One of the most iconic places in Bandhavghad in (Tala Zone) called as Sita Mandap.

It was a dream shot since I first visited Bandhavghad in 2012 and saw my first wild tiger.

Finally after almost 10 years and numerous safari rides nailed it

Thanks to our Guide and Driver for making this possible.

Slaty-headed Parakeet

I got this eye level shot while walking at Sattal, Uttarakhand early in April. The light was good and I moved around so that background was far enough to give a nice creamy bokeh.
In post I have increased clarity and vibrance on the parakeet and reduced the exposure on the background.
