About Featured

When I am out with my Canon 80D, it is rarely just about getting the shot. It is about fieldcraft. Whether I am waiting for hours in the thickets of Jim Corbett to catch a langur pair grooming or timing a shutter release for a peacock in flight, the goal is to capture the subject as it truly exists. If you are looking to learn this, my field mentorship sessions at biodiversity parks in the NCR are practical and hands-on, focusing on manual mode and composition with the gear you already own.
