EXPERIENCES

Golden Dusk

Light and Dust

Kaziranga National Park

Sometimes when you are ready to shoot something, Rhinos in this case, something else can catch your eye. This wonderful array of redwas filtering across the horizon and at the very same moment, the safari jeeps were returning back, lifting a giant plume of dust, which greatly enhanced the tonality and layering of the light.

 In the gleams of light passing through the trees,
I saw the particles of dust floating in the air
like we seldom see.
At that very moment,
immersed in the sheer magnificence
of nature’s cascade and its tranquility,
I did briefly bring myself to think
aren’t we also similar to those dust particles,
but a mosaic of nature’s light and dust.”
