Faces of Indian Journey

My Photo scholarship 2011 entry

Worldwide | Wednesday, August 31, 2011 | 5 photos

I am an outdoor person by nature and love to travel across country. On hills, forts, through the Jungles, countryside, desert and I go on my journey, Meeting people, knowing their culture, their way of life, survival amazes me.

Due to this passion of travelling, photography was the hobby i could start developing. Actually I feel photographs are the mirror of the person who clicks them at that particular time.

Visiting Ranthambhor National Park in Rajasthan, India in late June 2011 was taking a chance to be face to face with the Tigresses in there and on day one we came across this beautiful Tigress T - 39 in the morning. She was on her breakfast. I was the witness of the whole drama for at least one and half hour. She actually killed her pray a night prior to our visit. I guess it was a huge NILGAI (Boselaphus tragocamelus). Next morning she again came to the place and I was lucky enough to witness the event. After half an hour she came near the stream just a few meters away from us to drink water and they she started relaxing a bit after a heavy breakfast. The photos were taken on 20/June/2011 between 08:45 am to 09:15 am (Indian standard time) by Canon SX 20.
