Wild Water Buffalo

Gallery: WildlifePosted April 11, 2011107 views4 comments

Sometimes it is possible to photograph Wild Buffalos, head on from close quarters. I happened to photograph them many years ago on a film format, But I find digital much better in terms of recording the fine details on their dark bodies. Of course the experience of many years too add to it.

Thank you so much for your kind attention & views !

Beautiful techs and I love the slight head tilt.

great light here Jagdeep - I like the cocked head :)
do you perhaps have a sliver of space to add on the RHS?

Wild Water Buffalo are magnificent beasts and I think you've made a terrific job of capturing this one Jagdeep :^)

We have a variety over here known as Gaur, which are equally impressive but apparently not that easy to find in the wild.

This guy exudes health and strength. A fine specimen, and the lifted head is terrific. Nice work on the detail as well.
