In the process his work has received international recognition and acclaim. In 1998, he reached, for the first time, the finals of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest and till date he has done so 9 times, having got to the semiKfinals stage as many as 51 times. In the German Wildlife Photography Awards he received the Gold Star 36 times.
In this volume we present a selection of Anant Zanjale’s photographs depicting not just a few species, but a broad spectrum of India’s rich biodiversity and immense faunal wealth. This should be of interest and value to both casual visitors to our national parks and sanctuaries as well as to serious students of Indian Wildlife. His comments alongside each photograph provide interesting insights into the romance and charm of our wild places and the wonderful creatures that inhabit them.vizualizați mai puține
