JACKSON D SOUZA

Udupi (Karnataka)

About Photographer
I am an autodidact photographer with good patience and passion towards nature. The journey of photography started with a beginner's camera exploring the aesthetics of nature. Initiated with the love of nature then turned into passion for wildlife photography without my knowledge. Photography led me to learn and explore the habitats of species in nature and to explore the locations for specific species. I enjoy my passion and love being a part of nature.

The keen sibling, grasslands never disappoint when you have a specific specie in mind and you strive to achieve it. These cute little stripped hyena siblings made our day. It was a winter morning, we heard of the hyena family strolling around the grasslands, with no other plan in mind, we decided to be there at the first light in the morning, search the spot and set ourselves to photograph. We made way through the bushes and thorny shrubs and set ourselves. But never the less, to our surprise, we saw this cute little pair, waiting for their parents outside the den, playing and enjoying the winter morning light. A pure blessing to get this sight

About Photographer
I'm a Civil Engineer by profession and working in govt. sector over five years. I was always close to nature since childhood. Trees, flowers, insects, birds always attracted me . Though there was no camera then in my hand , I felt pleasure to sit alone away from crowds since that time. Finally at the end of 2020 I bought my first camera and started nature & wildlife photography. People say once you are in the field of birdwatching, there is never going back. So I am more into birdwatching , birdphotography now and I feel amazing in this new world. I am learning more and more day by day about birds and wildlife and also gaining some photography skills . Gear : Nikon D7500 with 200-500 mm.
