A collection of Himalayan Brown Bear photographs from our years in Dras, Ladakh.

Some were made during the early days of our expeditions, when every sighting came through patience, persistence and plenty of luck. Others are from recent seasons, after years of watching the valley and learning its seasonal rhythms.

Every photograph has its own story. Looking through them together, I realise how much the journey has evolved — while the fascination with these remarkable bears has never really changed.

Which frame is your favourite?

17 years of tracking. One untamed wilderness.

From photographing leopards, tigers, and rhinos through dense elephant grass to documenting rare, highly threatened species like clouded leopards across vast riverine forests and misty canopies, these frames are built on thousands of hours of field presence across Manas National Park, Assam.

With the access to critical zones now open for full-day safaris, we are taking a strict, small group back into the wilderness this season.

📅 Oct 22–26, 2026 | Dec 16–20, 2026
👥 Capped at 4 photographers per vehicle

A world still waiting to be discovered by the little ones.

We’ve been fortunate to watch these Black Leopard cubs grow over the past few months, slowly becoming familiar with the forest around them — one branch, one climb and one little adventure at a time.

We now look forward to witnessing them again, up close and in their natural surroundings, during our upcoming Manas Photography Workshops in the months ahead.

Three Himalayan expeditions. Three distinct rarities. The most sought-after species from the Indian Himalayas.

Organizing high-altitude photography expeditions in Ladakh and Spiti Valleys of India for nearly a decade have taught me one thing: field success isn't about arbitrary calendar dates—it’s about being in position precisely when behavioral rhythms align. A defining photograph only happens when you know exactly when to find the species featuring its finest natural traits.

Swipe through the slides above to see our seasonal breakdown for each Himalayan expedition.

Which is next on your list?

DM us with your code for complete details and departures: • SL — Snow Leopard • HBB — Himalayan Brown Bear • ELW — Eastern Ladakh Wildlife • HIMALAYAS — All three expeditions

Save this post for your seasonal planning, or share it with a fellow photographer targeting the high altitude wildlife.

A gem of the Bornean rainforest.

The Silvery Lutung, also known as the Silvered Leaf Monkey, is one of those species that makes every journey into the Bornean jungle feel special.

No matter how many times we return, finding them in the rainforest canopy is always a rewarding experience.

An Old World monkey, the Silvery Lutung is highly arboreal and closely associated with coastal forests, mangroves and riverine habitats. Its range extends across Borneo, Sumatra, Java, parts of the southwestern Malay Peninsula, the Natuna Islands and several nearby islands.

For us, they have become one of those must-photograph species of every Bornean rainforest journey — not because they are rare to us, but because every encounter feels different.

MANAS PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP | EXCLUSIVE PREMIUM ZONES | FULL-DAY SAFARIS

A new way to experience and photograph Manas.

4 Nights / 5 Days
3 Full-Day Premium Zone Safaris + 2 Standard Safaris
Manas National Park, Assam.

Having tracked and photographed the wilderness of Manas for over 17 years, I can tell you that the opening of its high-density Premium Core Zones for full-day tracking is the single biggest operational game-changer this park has ever seen.

​I’m leading two exclusive, small-group departures to venture deep into these newly unlocked, restricted sectors—designed purely for serious photographers and wildlife enthusiasts who demand raw, unhurried field access.

Expect long hours in the field, private Gypsies capped at 4 photographers per vehicle, and focused tracking of Manas’s elusive and rare wildlife in the critical zones — including tracking time focused on the resident Black Leopard family..

📅 22–26 October 2026
📅 16–20 December 2026

Some eyes carry the weight of an entire forest. High above the floor of Borneo, undisturbed by the noise below, this moment reminds you of what is quietly slipping away while the rest of the world rushes forward.

​We document these fragments not just for the portfolio, but because they are chapters of a history we are running out of time to read.

​Step past the tourist trails. Experience the remaining wilds on our next Borneo Rainforest Photography Tour.

The Devil in Black.

There is something extraordinary about seeing a Komodo Dragon up close. Every detail seems built for survival—the ancient texture of its skin, powerful limbs, formidable claws, watchful eyes and that unmistakable expression.

To stand close enough to observe all of this in the wild is a privilege. You are not just looking at a reptile; you are observing one of the planet's most remarkable living predators.

Some encounters don't need colour to reveal their character.

A major shift is coming to Manas National Park starting October 1, 2026.

The Bodoland Territorial Council has officially notified revised entry structures, introducing dedicated Premium Zones and Full-Day Safari permits.

For standard tourists, it means higher entry costs. But for serious wildlife photographers and trackers, this is a massive operational upgrade:

1. Core Access: Opens up deeper, restricted sectors of the reserve known for elusive predators like Clouded Leopards, Black Panthers, Himalayan Black Bears, Binturongs and many other rare species.
2. Low Vehicle Density: Higher entry fees naturally filter out casual crowds, giving you quiet, unobstructed lines of sight at sightings in the Premium Zones.
3. Uninterrupted Tracking: Full-day permits mean no breaking your tracking sequence to exit the gates at midday. You stay where the action is from sunrise to sunset.

Swipe through the carousel to see how this changes our field strategy for upcoming tours.

Save this post for your next Assam itinerary, and share it with a fellow photographer heading to Manas this season.
