About Photographer
I've started my photography journey in 2010 with a Powershot camera. Promoted with a Dslr, I photographed almost everything like street, portrait, landscape and finally I found myself satisfied in Wildlife photography. I clicked both birds and Mammals; their habitat, activities - everything that mesmerize myself. I've visited several hill regions, grasslands, wetlands, Desert and National Parks in search of beautiful wildlives. I collect memory and try to present them as a photograph to the World for delight.

This was a moment of beauty and peace caught in the season of monsoon; in Bandipur National Park. I feel it's a great opportunity to capture both the herd of deer and a big cat in a single frame. They evidence the co- existence of peace and fear

Flying foxes, also known as fruit bats, are a fascinating animals, during the day time they rest on trees with their wings to fan themselves while sleeping and even hang upside down from tree branches Despite being a nocturnal creature, during the day these flying foxes manage to stay cool by taking several dips in water. This behaviour helps them regulate their body temperature and survive in extreme heat. The behavior of flying foxes is a testament to their resilience and ability to survive in scorching hot conditions. This unique adaptation allows them to survive even in extreme temperatures.
