Looking into the Africa folder to post lion images yesterday, I realised that birds from Africa don't get much screen time. So here's some love for a Double Banded Courser from #Amboseli, #Kenya #birdphotography

I used to wonder how some birds consider standing on one leg as *resting*. Then motherhood happened. Me: Ah! (Because that’s all you’re gonna get, so why not reframe your view?)

Yesterday came the news about the decision to declare Slender-billed Curlew extinct. It's my ultimate favourite bird, so it is quite tough to face this realization. You can read more about it here: vogelbescherming.nl/.../dbb230d1-5…... Here are some of my illusrtations and paintings.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo. “So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Frame-in-frame to explore the spatial relationships of objects in the room, leading lines that lead nowhere, peek into the frame away from the camera for a completely non self conscious view of the world — a seven month old challenges conventional angles of photography.

Made a long overdue spiritual trip to Bhimbetka this weekend. Bhimbetka has the earliest examples of human creativity known to man. In fact, the art here is so old that it precedes anatomically modern humans. A few pictures 📷

A short thread on Sugama-sangeeta in Kannada.

A significant credit goes to the sugama-sangeeta movement, IMHO. The genre of Sugama-sangeeta that sets non-movie lyrics from accomplished poets to lilting melodies is unique to Kannada. Sugama-Sangeeta/Bhaava-Geete is a music-lyric ecosystem that is parallel to movies. ...

My grandmother is a rather unusual woman. On her 75th birthday, she announced to the family that her will was finalised, and she had left enough money for her funeral. When she turned 80, she sent each grandchild exactly £86; our dividend from her pension, as she called it.

I’m thrilled to share that my friend Dr. Gowri Shankar has described four different king cobra species, with one now bearing a Kannada name. Seeing the king cobra of our region called Ophiophagus kaalinga is a beautiful blend of science and local heritage. Being part of his…

ಕಾದಂಬರಿ ನವೆಂಬರ್ ೮ರಂದು, ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಲೋಕಾರ್ಪಣಗೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಆ ವಿವರಗಳನ್ನು ನಂತರ ಹಂಚಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತೇನೆ. ಕಾದಂಬರಿಯ ಪ್ರತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಕಾಯ್ದಿರಿಸುವ ಅವಕಾಶ ನವೆಂಬರ್ ೧ರಿಂದ ಲಭ್ಯವಾಗಲಿದೆ. ಅದನ್ನೂ ನಂತರ ವಿವರಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ.
