On #WorldTourismDay let me tell you about my favourite place on this planet - the area of the three lakes in Ranthambhore national park. It’s a stunning place. I will take a few minutes of your time but it may brighten up your day. 🙏
#ThePhotoHour
The overall backdrop is stunning because of a plus 1000 years old UNESCO World Heritage site Hill fort from which the park gets it name. It’s just too imposing. #Rajasthan
There are lots of pretty places but few where our countries glorious ancient past mixes with raw nature is such a mind blowing manner. Hundreds of years ago people actually prayed in this mosque. Monuments here are a classic mix of Rajput and Mughal architecture #IncredibleIndia
The fort as a backdrop, blue skies with magical clouds, big lakes surrounded by forests teeming with wildlife. Even an idiot can take great pictures here - a true paradise for outdoor photography.
The wildlife around - stunning in diversity and density. It’s a cool place but please don’t just take my word for it. #FactCheck it. This shot is dedicated to the cool people of @AltNews who I see as tigers lighting up a dark swamp of misinformation. 💯 to them 🙏
It’s not just about tigers though the big cat does have an electrifying on other living beings. Run baby run.
When big cats are not around the wildlife is still ‘electric’
What’s a lake without birds. My friends in #IndiAves will lynch me if I don’t have birds in this thread. Mix birds + strong backlighting + massive under exposure + average photographer - Get this
The greatest thing about this area is that there is such a unique mix of habitats in a small area. You want wetlands, grasslands, scrub forest, woodlands, ancient monuments - this place got it all.
Hell it even has a calcified deadland
A beautiful place of co existence with an unwritten agreement that you could get eaten up anytime. My kind of a place 🙂 I am afraid I am still not good enough a photographer to do justice to the lakes but I will keep at it till I do or die 🙏
