Hi all,

I am Saurabh Singh from India and new to this forum.

With having no photography background and being just 2 YR. old in this complex Art, I am glad to mention that Mr. Google has really helped in creating a basic know-how of Photography in these years. I have recently discovered that my core interest is in shooting Mammals.

I am using D 7000 with ( kit lens ) and lately have invested in new Nikon equipment.

My journey : As a sincere seeker of solace , tranquillity and keen admirer of Nature I have widely explored Indian jungles for the last 7 years including – Sundarbans, Ranthambore ,Tadoba , Rajaji , Sariska and Bandhavgarh.

I have intimate memories of my hundreds of visit for Corbett National Park which I still cherish the colossal vistas and memorable encounters with charismatic fauna with their varied rare behaviours.
‘ I still remember During one of my visits in 2009 to my all time favourite Forest rest house ( Kanda ) situated on a hillock in heart of Corbett national park gazing at stars and while completely enjoying the jungle reverberations... a thought ! prevailed upon me to capture and document the magnificent beauty of wildlife and it’s rich habitat , that finally propelled me to enter the domain of photography ,which was essentially the origin of my journey from a regular nature wanderer to a Nature photographer.

Here on NPN I wish to learn and improve my skills in Nature Photography.

Regards
Saurabh Singh

Hi Saurabh,
Welcome on board. I expect to see your pictures from India. I have there a very good friend (in Madras) but, unfortunately I didn’t have the opportunity to visit him. I hope to be able to do it in one-two years. Let’s see. Meanwhile, I will be happy seeing your pictures here…
Regards
Joana
