Into the nature as we like it

Got myself a new Nikon DSLR this year and a fairly nice telephoto lens recently. Life got really interesting with the close proximity to wildlife and the untouched smiles of folks.

As I belong to Assam and believe me its green here with so much variety to life, this like a paradise for photographers of all genre.

If you are stuck with short timelines you can always go to the Guwahati Zoo which is THE Asia's largest, and they do stick to their badge with pretty big enclosures which are almost wild. Just a word of caution, make sure you carry a good telephoto if you go there. You will need the reach with animals scattered around in such big enclosures.
