The beauty of the backwaters in Valparai, Karnataka, India.

I never imagined that I would see scenery like this while visiting the rainforest of Valparai. It was just incredibly beautiful and serene. A place I would love to visit again <:

Tiny little frogs of the rainforest in Valparai, Karnataka, India.

To get some macro pictures of some of the frogs was really a challenge. When it was pitch black I had to go out into the rainforest ( not alone though ), and listen to the frogs singing and then try to find these tiny creatures. Truly a challenge ! All about team work since light is needed to get any pictures at all.

Lion Tailed Macaques, LTM’s, in the Western ghats of India.

The lion tailed macaque or the wanderoo, is an old world monkey endemic to the Western ghats of South India. It’s one of the most endagered species in the world. And I was lucky enough to meet them, spend time with them and get some great pictures of this amazing creature.
