My love for wildlife and nature has only grown over the years. So I wanted to share some images of wildlife that I captured during my recent travels to wild India. I believe that the best respite from the chaos of the city is to spend time with nature and observe wildlife.
I try to reinforce the importance of conserving wildlife and their habitats in order to maintain a balanced ecosystem because we cannot hope to achieve the desired well-being and progress of humanity without the ecological balance that provides and nurtures our lives. Through my association with reputed organisations like Wildlife Trust of India and Sanctuary Asia, I try to get more and more people involved with wildlife conservation.
So channeling my inner photographer, I captured these images at the famous Ranthambore National Park.
I hope these images call out to you just as they do to me! Go to the forest and be awakened to the deep connection we share with all living beings on this incredible living, breathing, planet - Earth.
About The Photographs
Tiger forests represent water. As India faces enormous challenges like water scarcity (21 major cities including New Delhi are set to loose ground water by 2020, many cities are already dependent on water tankers), droughts and floods, it’s important for us to acknowledge the invaluable function tiger forests perform. Tiger forests act as natural infrastructures that are providers of water, sequesters of carbon, regulators of climate, providers of health, economic engines of growth and prosperity.
