The summer bath

This has been shot in Tamhini from a hide.

Shot at around 12PM using a Sony A7iv and Sony 200-600mm lens. The camera was placed on a bean bag.

Even though it was noon, the light was still challenging.

I saw some birds taking a bath at a nearby pool and wanted to capture some action. I thought this shot was good considering… Read more

Cub in dense foliage

1 of the 4, 2-3 month old cub of B2 tigress’ first litter. Tigress was resting after eating and attempting to pull its kill away from the road. Its 4 cubs were hidden in dense foliage nearby but not too close for a 600mm focal length. Unless they made some movement, it was difficult to notice them. Captured from Pench,…

I do consider this picture as one of my bests so far. Shot at yellowstone nat park. I wanted to experiment with rim lighting and remembered Sudhir sirs video where he said these guys have velvet texture on the horns and i wanted to enhance it. We were on a game drive once and the sun was about to rise. I saw a group of elks and a bull elk… Read more

I was in a local state park where there are ample of humming birds. They mostly feed off of the feeders they have put up but then also feed on the flowers that have bloomed in the garden. This particular one seemed to love this plant. This area was in shade with nice greens behind it. I have been hoping to shoot a humming bird on flowers from… Read more

This picture was made in Albuquerque nature reserve in New Mexico. It was sunny afternoon and this turtle was baking its shell on the log. The surroundings around him was in shade but he had this spotlight on him from sun. I had just learned about the low key image and thought of executing it. I did wait for the perfect head turn as if the… Read more

These ducks call yellowstone nat. park their home for limited amount of time in spring. The idea was to get the smooth flowing waterfall while focusing on the ducks. This was achieved at slow shutter speed. Handheld.

Fist day when I saw this mantis the pics did not come out very well as the background had a dead leaf behind it and was a distraction. Next day I was not expecting to see it again but found it on a plant near by . With macro as we go very close they can sense our presence . So I was a little far to get the whole of it in… Read more
