Thanks Mridul. This place is in near coorg and south karnataka. An over night from bangalore. One of the best/strenous treks in south. Not much in terms of wildlife though.

This image was taken from kal mandapa while trekking down from Kumara Parvatha. The landscape was quiet foggy. The trek route is slightly visible on the bottom right side of the image with the forest...

Very nice picture Roopak.

Composition wise, I'd have liked if this image was the left half of the frame and the right half included the forest - Some direction into where the elephants are so...

Actually that's lens flare from the setting sun.

Applied AltalUX effect in Irfan View.

Saw this Langur at Bijarani. Loved the attitude displayed by its body language.

The mist over the grasslands of Bijrani was magical

Fuji X100; F5.6; 1/125; ISO 200; Crop: above 85% of original image. Cropped to remove excess sky.

The elephant waited behind the Bushes and decided to cross after the jeep passed it to some distance. The light was a little diffcult with sun setting behind the elehant. But I think that also added...

Thanks for the feedback Sabyasachi and Mrudul, This was taken at Kabini in Aug, 2011.

Priceless picture despite the blur!

Interesting point Sabyasachi. In this situation where the subeject is relatively still, I assume a typical SLR camera would alllow a shutter speed of 1/125 to be able to hold the camera in hand and...

This could have been a good picture. However I was careless enough not to change the ISO settings from previous night. Lesson learnt.

Moss as seen in a tree near the antipoaching camp in Bandipur.

Thank you Sabyasachi for the feedback. I have tried to incorporate the suggestions in this picture.

I guess the real objective is to compose the original frame itself this way without having to...

Thank you Saktipada for you feedback. Info on fog in corbett is interesting. Since I have only a non-interchageable 23mm prime lens camera, I'm focussing only on landscape / habitat pictures as of...

Shot in darkness-7pm. Thought I should share this becuase the naturalist Basavanna from jlr mentioned that this is the oldest elephant in bandipur.

Fuji x100; 23mm prime; f2; 1/125; ISO 4000

I guess it had to be a grab shot becuase I was sitting in the opposite seat doing my best to prevent a clear view :) Sorry about that.

sharing a pic of the same gaur with a wide angle (fuji film...

Cropped to move gaur from center to left bottom.

I don't mean to contradict the previous posts that this is not a makhna-I'm no expert on elephants. However just a healthy debate to get the facts right. When I spotted this elephant, It was quite...

Hello All,

Ours is an apartment complex of 20 acres built in a place which used to be very green once and still is to some extent (Near thurahalli hill in kanakapura road bangalore). The builder...

Refer to these two images for better idea on trunk length-especially the second one. It did look long to me.
