Thanks guys! Many in India consider the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest the 'Nobel Prize' in wildlife photography! And, was it a great event or what! The award ceremony this year was held in the Diplodocus dinosaur exhibit room at the Natural History Museum in London on Oct 21 night, and was attended by some of the greats of wildlife photography. I met one of my 'gods' of wildlife photography, Jonathan Scott, who had come with his wife, Angela, all the way from Kenya, where he lives, just for the ceremony! I got to meet him and get his autograph in the special book (containing all the prize-winning images) brought out on the occasion. I am still dizzy! Once again, many thanks for taking the time out to look at my images on NPN and for all your kind comments and critiques.
