This has been shot very early, at 6.30am, on a cloudy day. The light was very less and I needed to take the ISO up to 12,800. This… Read more

Oriental White eye. Taken at my house in Bangalore. Tiny bird and does not stay for long. I had to preempt the shot and take a chance at pre focusing on a branch, it would land up at. Got lucky and had about a second to get a good image.

This photo was taken on day 3 as we were desperately looking to get this beautiful black leopard in the daylight and when we saw her in the daylight our experience was breath-taking. She was walking continuously which gave us opportunity to take ample shots of her for almost.

The Bee Eater

When I was in my regular practice of birding in the morning, caught this Bee-eater with a bee in its beak. When I saw him sitting on this perch the background was too cluttered and thought to move to other side. Finally, I got this
