Here are the pictures selected by the Jury for the Collection-5.
A weekend visit to Purbasthali in West Bengal made me discover this little Kingfisher when catching a fish. This pose is exciting, the bird was actually trying to kill the fish by hitting the branch again and again before swallowing.

Its always a dream of any wildlife photographer to see and capture a tiger frame ! I have seen countless tigers as well, however this sighting and the story behind this sighting is beyond my wildest imagination. Almost all the gypsies in Dhikala were at this spot. However no one got this frame as my gypsy was right in front sideways, giving me an advantage of eye level shot and perfect head-on walk. Exif- ISO 400, f2.8, 1/1000 Gear Used: Sony a1 and 400mm f2.8 GM OSS Location: Dhikala, Jim Corbett National Park

This is a picture of two bugs mating whose identities are still unknown to me. I took this picture while I was roaming in my home garden and this guy was stuck to the bottom side of one of the leaf. The picture is taken using a Nikkor 18-55mm attached to a Nikon D7200 using a reverse ring to get the magnification ratio needed to click this beautiful creation of mother nature.

P.S - It's not a drone shot. During the Covid time post, lock-down traveling far was not much an option with uncertainty looming around. Rather I preferred to roam around nearby areas. I found this Eagle Owl settled in one of the Quarry. I took some shots and came back but was wondering what else could have been done. I love taking shots out of the box and kept on visiting the place. One lucky day it was placed near to top and I managed to take this top-down approach. So I used a tripod attached to a camera and took the shot with the best possible calculations.
Nature is so incredible, we stopped for a look at this lovely little Scops Owl, and his good friend the brightly coloured Rock Agama decided to drop in for a cup of tea.
