Green Life, the Shades of Biodiversity: Shalini Binu Photography
Many people dream of becoming a wildlife photographer, for which, first thing they do is to buy an expensive camera and travel into the forest. Most times they come back with the disappointment of not getting any good pictures. But Shalini Binu from Thiruvananthapuram shows us that we can do wildlife photography even from our 'home environment'.
Wherever we travel around the world, we can see a wide variety of biodiversity, and if we can't travel anywhere, we can see many species and their lives in one of our home environments. But to capture them on camera requires extraordinary patience and dedication.
Wildlife photography is not something that is possible for someone who does not have a lot of patience and a keen mind to observe nature, whether in the forest or in the home environment. We can see and capture some of the small creatures through a camera eye only with patience for observing and watching them for hours without disturbing them. Shalini has a special ability to capture those living creature on her camera.
