The Watch Keeper

Vigilance in his eyes, valor in his attitude – he stood on the vantage point, guarding his kingdom like a wary watchkeeper. I clicked this Grey Heron in the Vedanthangal Bird Sanctuary near Chennai. The setting sun highlighted his figure, making him look even more furious. The shade in the background made him stand out…

It was a cloudy day with Sun peeking behind clouds intermittently, so lighting was not very even and mostly it was low light conditions since time was 6:15 PM in evening on late winter day.

I was driving in the park and suddenly this beautiful fox appeared crossing the road from behind the barren…

Charging Bull

Elephant Bulls undergo a phase called ‘Musth’ characterized by surge of adrenaline. They exhibit excessive aggression and sexual desire in this phase. Bulls that go amok are abandoned by their herd and grow alone as ‘Tuskers’

I shot this tusker in a safari through the Bhadra Tiger Reserve. He was not in his best mood, breaking…

Look beyond the subject!

Red-Whiskered Bulbul, I Shot this at some random ‘Nuggekayi Mara’ in Kelamanagalam, Tamil Nadu.

This Bulbul was judging me for not looking beyond the background. Initially, I shot this image with the plain sky as the background, and then I looked at the viewfinder to realise the mistake that I was committing. Then I…

Indian Spot-Billed Duck

The yellow spot on the tip of its black bill is the most distinguishing feature of these cute waterbirds. They are common in freshwaters of India, but prefer to stay away from humans. So, we need a lens with a good focal length to click them. They usually wade slow, giving adequate time to plan the shot.

I clicked this…

Egret cousins.. this was shot again at around 8am against sun light and the reflection from the water – at Yelahanka lake in Bangalore. Two different Egret species walking together caught my attention. They were walking crisscross and I had to wait for a good amount of time for them to walk together like in this image. Composition and framing…
