PhotoBlog
This site also documents my return to photography, one image a day, one story at a time.
Travel - Birds and Bandipur!
I led the first of my series of "Weekend Warrior" workshops this weekend taking some really great young photographers away for the weekend, leaving Bangalore early on Saturday and returning on Sunday afternoon... Sloth bears (yes plural), being one of the highlights of this trip!

Quick-tips - Pre-visualization, planning and knowledge

Interview - Andries Alberts
I came across Andries on JungleDragon (a wildlife community website). Not only does he have some fantastic images, but some jaw-dropping wildlife stories from his time working in the wilds of Namibia!
