My photography is a dialogue between the wild and our conscience. These published features and media highlights represent not just my work, but the urgent stories of the wetlands and forests I strive to protect.

Being featured in Sanctuary Asia was a full-circle moment for me. This magazine inspired me as a young boy, and to see my photo story on the Navi Mumbai flamingos within its pages was an honor. In this video, I share my journey and the hope that these images will inspire more people.

A snapshot of my feature in the Mid-Day newspaper, which covered the annual arrival of flamingos in Navi Mumbai. Media coverage like this is crucial for bringing the story of these wetlands to a wider audience and building public support for their protection.

This high-key, minimalist photograph of the T.S. Chanakya lake was featured in the Mangrove Photography Awards. It portrays the serene, almost glassy surface of the water, a fragile peace that is threatened by plans to convert this vital wetland into commercial properties.

I was privileged to speak at the India Civic Summit and present my film "Chalo Chanakya." This video includes clips from the citizen protests and my speaker announcement, showing how my filmmaking directly supports on-the-ground environmental movements.

About Featured & Published

Seeing my Navi Mumbai flamingo series featured in Sanctuary Asia was not just a personal milestone; it was a validation for the wetlands themselves. When these images appear in print or at public summits, they act as a megaphone for the voiceless, turning my quiet hours of observation into a public conversation about what we are at risk of losing.

This leopard, walking on the edge of Mumbai, represents the core of my work: documenting the complex reality of human-animal coexistence.

A tiger moving through a glade in the soft glow of a wintry evening. This is the perfect Kipling country setup in the heart of Central India. The calm of the dull golden grass and the varying greens of the gnarled forest, with the great striped beast on the move, reminds me of the sheer drama of the Indian wilds.8
Fleeting sunsets often make me leave whatever I am doing. To watch one with a bird, its snake-like form silhouetted in the heart of the fading sun, is a profound experience. It feels as though God alone is the painter of such sublime beauty.
