A little group of Lesser Flamingo (Phoeniconaias minor) was landing in a clear salty wetland. Their every steps were flawlessly reflected in the water with a mirror precision. The jumps and splashes with such reflection was a result of three long hours of patience. I was there in that single spot waiting and waiting only for such frames! Pics was taken from Little Rann of Kutch, Gujrat, India.
A group of Lesser flamingos (Phoenicopterus minor) was engaged in feeding under the salty wetland. They were eagerly attaining their meal with full concentration caring a hang for my solitary presence. Though they maintained a minimum distance from my presence all the time. And this was all after my long wait on my knees for an hour inside the muddy wetland. Pics was taken from a village in Little Rann of Kutch, Gujrat, India.
The rare sight for most are the salt field in the Run of Kutch in Gujrat. The white sea of salt with the embrace of blue, purple, pink, orange, yellow, the most beautiful colors of the sky are almost surreal. The human silhouettes at a distance and the round ball of fire adds life to the image!

A small group of Lesser Flamingo (Phoenicoparrus minor) was foraging in a muddy salty wetland with synchronous movements. Most delightful fact was that their every moves were reflected on the thin water layer in front. I love the network of long pink legs and necks staggered in between the water layers. I tried my best to frame their activities at the eye level. Pics was taken from a village in Little Rann of Kutch, Gujrat, India.
An Eurasian Spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia) juvenile was desperately begging to its mother for food and eventually was greeted with a meal by the mother. It was continuously pecking after its mother and I was hiding beside bushes and witnessed the total process. Pics was taken from Jamnagar, Gujrat, India.
Haven't had a chance to carry and use my DSLR for a while. Here's a snap of a red-naped ibis with the mirror less borrowed from my son. Yaken at IIT Campus, Gandhinagar, Gujrat.
This is the Bahauddin Maqbara (mausoleum) from the Mahabat Maqbara Complex in the town of Junagadh in the state of Gujrat, India. The Nawabs of the Babi Dynasty ruled the erstwhile Junagadh state.
The complex contains two mausoleums.The main is the Mahabat Maqbara which houses the grave of Nawab Mahabat Khan II and the Bahauddin Maqbara containing the grave of his Vizier Sheikh Bahauddin Hussain Bhar. The tombs were built between 1878 to 1896.They are exquisite buildings known for the amalgamation of Indo-Islamic styles with considerable European (Gothic) influence.
The main tomb was very near a boundary wall and difficult to photograph.However,Sanjay did manage a shot and I will share it next.

Two of them - the Dalmatian Pelicans (Pelecanus crispus) were framed with their itchy feelings, scratching out for a pleasant solution while the other two were watching it out. I love the symmetrical posture of them with perfect lighting as well as crisp detail and a smooth background. Pics was taken from Dwarka sector in Gujrat, India.

A couple of Cheetal deer. Shot taken on a recent visit to Gir Wildlife Sanctuary , the home of the Asiatic Lion, in the western Indian state of Gujrat
Sadly, the lions were invisible ( we did hear a couple of roars:-) ) but we saw a fair number of deer, peacocks and other birds.
I am no wildlife photographer but these deer were fairly close and I managed to capture them.:-)
