It was freezing cold, full of fog and mist and I couldn’t feel my fingers, glad that I was able to press the shutter on my camera. It was such a special moment, one that I have been waiting for, for as long as I can remember, finally nature has blessed me with this. I am ever so grateful. For me, this image has captured the heart and soul of Ranthambore.”

“Winter mornings in Corbett are always very special, full of mist and fog makes it so surreal [and] dreamlike. In nature everything has a job, the job of the fog is to beautify further the existing beauties. As the fog slithered over the forest floor it was hard to see and figure out what lay ahead, but that was what made the mornings in Corbett so exciting. As we took a turn on the road, we saw fresh pug marks and there she was patrolling her territory dressed in the shades of winter.”
“They give me the power to move on”
