This landscape is shot from the top of Mandaragiri Betta close to Bangalore. The early morning sun breaks through the clouds and lights the land.

laughing Dove

In cities, the bird photography subject is always found on electrical poles or wires and it is difficult to find a complimentary background. A laughing Dove sitting on the top of an electrical pole continued to make movement. Due to this movement, the shutter speed increased 1/1000 and also ISO to 500 and click the shot.

The Dal Lake

These days my landscape photography is usually done using my phone which I think does an ok job.
The sunsets at the dal lake are always amazing, especially if you have a partial cloud cover.

Compositionally I had the boats and the scene prepared for me. I saw these ducks moving around and wanted to make them a part of… Read more

A pair cheetahs on a stormy evening at Masai Mara. The sky was dark with thunder and lightning. There was a small gap in between the clouds through which the setting sun rays lit up these Cheetahs. They looked absolutely gorgeous.
