Peacock Pansy Butterfly

Mother Nature has countless creations that have evolved over millions of years, these form a vibrant part of our daily life but how many of us have the time to appreciate them. in keeping with the old saying “ those are truly blind who will not see” I would be delighted to open your eyes to the wonders and joys of nature that surround us. The areas around Mumbai, Maharashtra and the neighboring states abound in breath taking flora, fauna, insects, reptiles and scenery, but most of us do not see these as we are blinded by the routine of our daily lives.

Further, we take millions of photographs of various aspects of our lives, but how many of us have bothered to really understand the simple technical and artistic aspects of taking good pictures that will serve as a permanent record of our exciting lives and the wonders of nature that surround us.

Allow me to introduce you to this very exciting and rewarding world. I have been a photographer, graphic artist and nature lover for over 25Years. in this time I have brought together my love of nature and art and developed the ability to take beautiful pictures of nature. I have travelled most of the nature areas around Mumbai, Maharashtra and Gujarat and have an exhaustive knowledge of the flora and fauna that abounds here. I would like to share this knowledge of nature and photography with you. Remember, you do need any technical capability in nature or expensive equipment in photography;
