Your shots of the tigress and her infant cubs are too good for words.
Certainly in the very near future we will hit it out again with Lallan and treat our forum members of what we can manage to capture. Regards, |
As I have kept on saying, the pleasure of this meet was entirely mine.
Be my guest anytime you want to come down again to these parts. In case I am unable to accompany you (which I can if it is a weekend) , I will make sure that I give you some of the best trackers and naturalists of my group who can guide you around.

Will give you a call some time tomorrow, right now I heard Nagzira is the most likely place to see tiger, as the water shortage is vert acute there and if you go there for early morning you have better chances to see them at the man made water hole.
-Pramod.
PS: let me know when you would be most likely to be free via PM |
Lets meet up pramod and plan a trip together soon. I am again going to the park for half a day with a foreign guest this weekend. You can join me incase you are free.
Tadoba, pench and nagzira will have a lot of tiger sightings this summer as the water table in all these places is really low. Just last week some friends had fantastic leopard sighting at Nagzira which had come right up to the guest house beside the lake to drink (because of drying up of other nearby water holes) . Here is a video shot by them that I posting with their permission :
This is just middle of feb. 3 gruelling central indian summer months are staring in our face. There will be an increase in tiger and other carnivora sightings in and around water holes real soon. The trend has already begun.

Thank you sir. You need to see them with your own eyes to get the real impact of their spendour.

With wildlife photography you have to depend a lot on instincts and be prepared with the right equipment at the right time and be lucky. Equipment does matter but so does your luck and your preparation for the shoot. Like for instance, I could capture both wide angle and closeups as I was carrying 2 bodies that day.

Also, Keneth Anderson. |
Most of the sites mentioned in andersen's books are very close to bangalore . There's an active orkut community which will give you an idea about these spots

next three months will be the best time. keep a weekend in your plan so that this time i can join you guys as well. And better to pre book your accommodation as its heavy rush this season.

These parks are underdog tiger reserves (unlike kanha/bandhavgad) with a lot of good sightings. Whoever comes here wants to come back again and again.
Make a plan and execute it. It will be an eyeopener.

Your pictures are as always mind blowing but i had a query, i see most of the pictures quite warm. Was that a deliberate effort or it happened naturally due to the color balance set? |
Devidas and fazal saab really make very interesting companions on jungle outings. Most of the photos are warm as it was a bit overcast that day and we had to shoot keeping our white balance on "cloudy".

I would suggest you to check out the tigers in flesh. You will take back a lifetime of memories.
