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.

Indian Blue Robin – The rain provides a beautiful dimension to any image.

I played with various shutter speeds during the ~1 minute this bird was there, to show the rain. I liked this much more – it froze the action while also providing a feel of the falling drops.

I have not been going out to shoot a lot in the past 1 year. Towards the year end, got a chance to visit the lake I love in Bangalore – Saul Kere.

This shot of an egret was taken from ground level. My camera was on the ground and I shot this using the viewfinder.

The idea was to get a good greenish background, well separated from the…

Oriental Magpie-Robin

This is my first time hands on experience with a telephoto zoom lens. So far I have shot primarily using standard kit lens.
This image is captured during the monsoon rains…under overcast condition. It was raining continuously and this robin sat on the piller drenched in rain.
