Wildlife photography is more than just clicking photographs of various forms of animals and birds in their natural habitat. It’s about documenting rare moments of fleeting nature. Whether that’s a peacock dancing to impress the female, or a tigress consoling the cub – it’s about capturing these moments.

But, to be able to capture such moments, you need to know the wildlife. Their behaviour, patterns, habits – it’s all important. In fact, commitment to this genre isn’t easy because it requires a lot of patience. You have to wait for hours, days even to get that perfect shot.  We bring you a list of insanely talented photographers to fill your Instagram feed with such mesmerizing pictures.

First up, we have Subhash Nair owning the Instagram handle @itsmesubhash. Subhash Nair is a wildlife and nature photographer from Kerala. He is the founder of Expanded Expeditions. Various publications like BBC and National Geographic have featured his work. Not only this, but Subhash Nair has also received an Honourable mention in the Sanctuary Asia Awards in 2019.

Aarooza Khurana is yet another talented photographer. And this is visibly showcased on her Instagram page, @aarooza_khurana_photography.  Clicking immaculate pictures of various animals and birds, her feed is filled with contrasting images playing with colours and light.

Lastly, we present Nisha Purushothaman, a wildlife photographer, conservationist and speaker. The way she captures emotions through her photography is spell-binding. You can see what I am talking about on her Instagram page, @nisha.purushothaman.
