At the feet of the Pachyderm
This image was shot by placing the camera on the floor of the dry lake bed, which resulted in an unusual composition since the legs in the foreground gives a lot of strength to the composition and the elephants in the distance adds to it. Also the cracked lake bed and the sky add drama to the image.

About Artist
Parag Bhatt
I am a nature lover and a very passionate wildlife photographer based in India. I have been very seriously pursuing photographing wildlife since 20 years. I’ve always been fascinated with wildlife ever since my childhood. My tryst with the camera happened when one day as a young boy, I picked up my father’s camera and started shooting. Those were the days of the film and the learning curve was quite steep then. I was fortunate to be trained in the basics of photography by my father. Though interest in photography was kindled in my younger days, my first trip into the wilds happened only in 1995 to Kenya and Tanzania. This is when I got a real taste of the Jungle and also made me aware of my love for shooting in the wilds. Since then I have travelled to South Africa, most parks in Kenya and Tanzania and many parks within India. I now look for the smallest opportunity that takes me into the wilds.
