Stories of the Wild: Authentic Indian Wildlife Photography
Every print here is a scene I lived. From a tense gaur standoff in Nagarahole to the quiet care of a sunbird mother, these images tell the real, unfiltered story of our forests.
A truly epic faceoff between a pack of dholes and a mother gaur protecting her calf. This is a rare clash of worlds, the small, tenacious predators against the largest of prey.

The dholes cautiously circle the gaur and her calf. You can see the defensive posture of the mother and the strategic movement of the wild dog pack.

The mother gaur lets out a warning call, her mouth open as she confronts the approaching dholes. It's a powerful display of maternal protection.

A perfect example of a mutually beneficial relationship. A Jungle Myna sits on a spotted deer's back, getting an easy meal of parasites while the deer gets a cleaning and an early warning system for predators.
The spotted deer seems to react with surprise, its mouth agape, as the myna goes about its business. This adds a touch of humor and character to this symbiotic scene.

About Stories of the Wild
These prints are not just wall art. When I capture a moment like the standoff between a gaur and a dhole pack, I am looking to bring that specific tension into your room. Each piece is a museum-quality Giclee print on 250+ GSM archival paper, hand-signed and ready for you to frame.
For me, the best photographs don't just show an animal; they show the life around it. Whether I am documenting a mother sunbird nesting in the backyard of a cafe or witnessing a rare, intense faceoff between predators and prey in Nagarahole, I am hunting for the narrative.
My approach to 'Stories of the Wild' is about patience and observation. I rarely look for the 'perfect' portrait. Instead, I wait for the interaction, the symbiosis, or the struggle that defines existence in the jungle. This collection highlights these fleeting, dramatic, and sometimes quiet moments that many people miss on a standard safari.
The Quality
I treat my prints with the same care as the shoot itself.
- Archival Grade: I use 250-300 GSM heavy-weight fine art paper with 10-12 color pigment-based Giclee inks. This ensures that the blacks remain deep and the colors don't fade, keeping the wild mood intact for decades.
- Ready for Framing: Every print comes with a 0.5 to 1-inch white border, making it simple to get it matted and framed at your local shop.
- Authenticity: You receive more than just a photo. Your print includes a note detailing the specific location—be it Kabini, Bandipur, or Pilibhit—and the story behind the shutter click.
Whether you are looking for a centerpiece-sized canvas for a gallery wall or a smaller, archival A4 print for your desk, these images are crafted to make you feel like you are standing right there on the jungle floor with me.
