Some of my favorite shots taken using the new Nikon 80-400mm 4.5-5.6 VR on the Nikon D7100. I found the VR to be really helpful while taking handheld, dusk time photos.

The beautifully landscaped and manicured Lodi Gardens along with its magnificent tombs creates a charming atmosphere. The park provides a quite get away from the noisy life in the middle of Delhi. And for those willing to listen, the walls of the tombs, they tell the stories most interesting.

In my search for peace in the wilderness, I head out on a trek to Mullayanagiri, the highest peak in Karnataka. With the Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary only a few kilometers away, the area is rich in exotic birds and varied in wildlife.

This weekend I head out on a trek to the rocky cliffs along the coastline of Gokarna. The trek covers four of the most gorgeous beaches located to the south of Gokarna starting from the southern-most Paradise Beach and moving northwards towards Half Moon Beach, Om Beach, Kuddle Beach and finally ending at Gokarna Beach.

Follow my journey to Pelling, as we search the ruins of the Rabdentse, once upon a time, the seat of Sikkim’s monarchs. The stunning Kanchenjunga, the beautiful landscape and the rich heritage make Pelling a paradise on Earth.

Hampi is an ancient city on the banks of the Tungabhadra River. It used to be the capital of the Vijayanagar Empire where music, art and sculpture flourished. Join me on an exploration of over 300 exquisitely designed stone temples and ruined palaces of a vanished civilization.

Kunti Betta consists of two rocky but easy to climb hills that towers over a picturesque lake. It is said the Pandavas ended their exile of 14 years here in Pandavapura. Night Trek offers a unique experience from the hilltop with the Moon shining over the lake.
