The Gentle Giant of Amboseli

Craig is presently the largest tusker in Amboseli. I had the fortune of shooting him at very close quarters (focal length - 24mm for this shot) from the ground up. Truly a Gentle Giant, very calm and collected even when I was lying in front of him at a distance of approx. 15~20 feet.

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.
