As the monsoon rains drench the forests of Maharashtra, the elusive Oriental Dwarf Kingfisher makes its majestic return.

Captured from a hide deep within Karnala Bird Sanctuary on an early, rain-soaked morning, this vibrant jewel of the Western Ghats perched just long enough in the downpour for me to make this frame. The soft diffused light…

Hello Sudhir sir and everyone,

This is an image of a European brown bear taken in Eastern Finland. I love this image because of the pose this huge bear was sitting in and the curious look it gave as it stared right at it. Almost looks like a giant teddy bear! The original file is much higher quality but could not upload it here as the file size…

Blue Tailed Bee Eater pair, this picture was taken by me during my initial days before i knew about the settings. I was just looking for some nice composition and clicking without going to the settings prefrences as i did not know them. I just loved the nice perching of this pair of bird looking beautiful so took this picture.

Gaint Wood Spider on Tusker

Location: Bandipur Tiger Reserve: A Wildlife Paradise

We noticed a Tusker elephant with huge tusks. I was trying to obtain a decent prospective shot. Tusker was fairly far from the safari track, and the light was not excellent because it was late evening. When I zoomed in on the tusker, I discovered a Gaint Wood…

Hello Sudhir sir and everyone,

This is an image of a red squirrel I took in a park in Helsinki, Finland. I love this image because it shows an interesting perspective of the squirrel in its habitat. The eye contact and expression on the squirrels face completes the preconceived notion of the squirrel having an inquisitive nature. The original…

Spruce grouse enjoying the sunrise.
This is a very common bird found in Alaska and yet very beautiful. I found the bird during the scouting and was grazing on the roadside. So i got down from the vehicle and placed the camera on the road supported on tripod collar to get the low angle shot. Also, i wanted to capture the vibrant fall colors… Read more
