The year 2018 has been a crazy ride for me. During the first few months of the year I was in Japan covering the winter wildlife of eastern Hokkaido region of north Japan. My childhood dreams to see and photograph Japan’s unique wildlife in winter came true in life.
In 2nd half, after returning to India, I traveled few unknown destinations looking for some rare wildlife species. Made several consecutive trips in high altitude eastern Himalaya in Sikkim and my favorite Assam platue. Again it gave me a realization that I have seen very less from that region and lot of places need to be explored.
Here is a collection of few images from those trips. Hope 2019 will also be an exciting ride for me. 🙂
