Vasai salt pan Maharashtra

I wanted a closeup shot but it was not possible to go near the bird in the field so composed it this way from far off to get the greenery around it. I had not processed it as bird details not seen but maybe as a habitat shot it… Read more

On the memorable evening of August 10th, 2023, when the sun was setting in Yala National Park, Sri Lanka, perseverance yielded its coveted reward.

But on the second day, just as the day…

This photograph was taken in Pondicherry, in the evening by street lights. I found the symetry of the 3 windows and the ventilators above interesting, the two men on the right side and the little bush on the left provided a balance in the composition.
