Majestic

Shot at the park in Nisarga Dhama in Coorg. Got some great shots there when I visited in January. Will be posting those up as well. Don’t fret loyal readers there will be more posts in the near future. January was a busy full filled month for me. Spent almost 2 weeks in Mysore and had a lot of great experiences and photos to share!

Ok before anything else let me say that I have shot wildlife images only a couple of times in places like Mysore, Mangalore and Mandya. I’ve been able to shoot images of Mugger crocodiles at Ranganthittu bird sanctuary (Yes, the lake that you can row across is filled with them), Karanji lake also plays host to a lot of birds because of its calm and serene lake while they have a small aviary inside it too. So with this limited amount of experience let me share what I have learnt:

1.) Patience: This is the most important and the most annoying (at least for me). The image below of the butterfly took me nearly half an hour of hunting because the little butterfly just wouldn’t settle down. So being able to wait for things to calm down and settle is very important.
