A Serene Scene from Bandipur National Park, Karnataka, India

Often we never focus the camera's on the most common species. Wildlife photography means everything that exists in the wild. But what I have witnessed in my experience is most of the people consider clicking pictures of the apex predators is the only thing to do with wildlife photography.

Capturing the essence of the scene in wildlife photography, has to deal with a lot of parameters. Like this scene speaks about the trees that offer shade to these spotted deers, the complementing colors that beautify the environment, the greens that provides a stupendous meal to the herbivorous, the bushes in the background that aids both the predator and prey etc etc. All this combined with the technical expertise in handling your gear and applying photography skills, at the given time to freeze the moment impacts the final outcome.

In this photograph, to show the serenity of the wild with the elements that i could see, through the nikon 7100 + tamaron 150-600mm combo, I had to lower myself on my knees, hold breath and the pain of the muscle cramp that the bending to the sides produced, adjust the settings at that position to set the exposure, to get the angle and composition I wanted.

Finally, with a little offering from the Post Processing advantage, here I present you, "A Serene Scene"
