Navi Mumbai.

Captured in the summer wetlands, this Lesser Flamingo was photographed in the soft evening light as its delicate pink plumage gently contrasted against the blue waters.

One of the field challenges was finding a clean composition free from surrounding flamingos, while patiently waiting for the bird to briefly lift its head above…

Overcast light helped reveal the intricate details of the elephant’s eye, which is often partially concealed by heavy lashes and deep folds during the harsh daylight hours. The soft, diffused conditions allowed the textures and subtle reflections within the eye to stand out naturally.

While I was walking around The Sultanpur National Park I found a lot of dragon flies hovering round an area. I have always been fascinated by them and wanted to click one in flight, which is a very challenging task. This one just sat on this isolated tall grass blade and I found this to be the best opportunity for a minimalistic photo. Tell…

The Sun was really sharp and bright, I found a bed of flowers where beautiful Butterflies were going about their day. I just loved the way light illuminated them and the yellow flowers. I sat down on the ground waiting for the right moment when I could capture a couple of them in the frame with the yellow flowers.
