Avian beauties

Hi,

   This time for a change, I am here with some photographs, which I have taken in my recent visit to Sirsi, my native place. I consider myself extremely lucky to have been born there, which provided me ample opportunity to enjoy  the pure nature right from my childhood.

I always enjoyed watching birds and their behavior. Effortless and graceful flight of birds always fascinated me. This time, got a chance to capture these avian beauties in my camera, in fact I could capture more than 30 varieties of birds without much effort. Although I find bird photography, especially wild bird photography quite difficult, I am enjoying the challenges.

I should thank my cousin for his guidance in this exploration. He not only educated me in the basics of bird watching, but also taught how to locate and approach them safely without disturbing their life and damaging the habitat, which is really important for an amateur photographer like me..

So enough of writing now!! ;) here are the photographs...

Hello Friends,
    
     I have been quite busy until recently ... did not get a chance to work on any art work. In order to keep the continuity, uploading some of the photographs I have taken over the past few months. 

    When I started this blog, it was meant only for art and craft works. But my interest for photography grew over the years and made me to include another category in my blog. I have many good photographer friends and really feel inferior when compared to their work... still taking the courage to post my pics here :)

Exploring the Intricacies of Photography ...

Hi,

    My experiment with camera is going on,, :) I am really thankful to few of my friends who are helping me to understand the intricacies of Photography through Facebook :) I don't have the patience to upload one or two photos in each post, so uploading some of the photos I like, all at once.
