PRIZE-WINNING PHOTO <\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

Two of a kind <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

I was searching for Ural owl nests in F\u0103get, a forest near my hometown, when I spotted these chicks. To photograph them, I climbed a tree with a telephoto lens, far enough away not to disturb them and the one parent that was nearby. It was a very nice experience to visit the nest from time to time and see the chicks grow up and eventually leave the nest. This photo has brought me a lot of joy.<\/p>\n\n

Stop sign <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

This langur baby, photographed in Jhalana Leopard Safari Park in Rajasthan, seems to be signalling to humanity to stop the rapid urbanisation that is causing an increase in human-animal conflicts across India. <\/p>\n\n

Evening star <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

Out on my regular local wildlife walk one day, I noticed a bird I\u2019d never seen before through my spotting scope. I gently approached and could hardly believe what I was seeing: a reed bunting swinging gently in the early evening breeze, without a care in the world. <\/p>\n\n

Morning has broken <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

It was worth getting up early to spot this common blue butterfly covered in morning dew. I was able to get close with my camera because it was patiently waiting for the sun to rise to warm up and dry out its wings. <\/p>\n\n

Face to face <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

This magnificent red fox crossed my path a few dozen metres away. Curious, it approached me little by little. With its piercing and lively gaze, it stared straight at me for a few seconds. An encounter I won\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n\n

Near and dear <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

I was lying in a ditch at the edge of a field when a family of roe deer approached. The matriarch came to investigate, so close I could not fit the whole animal in the frame. <\/p>\n\n

Worth the wait <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

Thousands of flamingos flock to Lake Pulicat every winter and it becomes a photographer\u2019s paradise. I spent around eight hours sitting in the water from early morning to sunset, my camera set on a cool box. I took this picture at the end of the day. <\/p>\n\n
