- Location Kanha Natoinal Park , Mukki Gate , MP. - One of elegant and beautiful Tigres from the land of Saal trees of Kanha. She was on her morning petrol and we were the first one to enter into part . Had some alarm calls , guide and fellow photographers are looking into the front direction of gypsy. But I had a hunch that Tigress will come from the behind the zeep about 30 - 50 mtrs away and walk towards the morning Sun. I was with 400mm lense and Tigress walked out of saal trees quietly gave a look at camera before crossing the road into plain lands.. its an early winter morning sunlight falling on her on a carpet of dry saal tree leaves with little morning blues still in the air.

If you ask me what attracts me to photograph wildlife? My immediate answer would be the unpredictable nature of it. On a safari inside Kaziranga National Park, I encountered this magnificent event. Two Rhinoceros were chasing and charging our vehicle. I was lucky enough to escape the spot and was able to capture the event.

Imagine stepping into a meadow at sunrise and witnessing a breathtaking scene – a tiger silently prowling through the golden light. In 'Stripes in the Meadow,' captured at Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve in Maharashtra, the tiger's stripes blend seamlessly with the meadow's hues, showcasing its incredible camouflage skills while hunting. It's a moment that reminds us of nature's artistry and the awe-inspiring beauty of wildlife in its own habitat.
