This April, I will be leading a tour to learn photographing the landscapes of Munnar. Read on for more details.

Lush greenery dominates every inch of the rolling hills that surround the small town of Munnar. The emerald hues of neatly trimmed tea-estates and the thick jungles hugging the inclines go on forever, with clouds playing a game of light and shadow on the slopes. Perfectly still waters of the lakes and backwaters reflect the drama of the hills and clouds above. The tea estates, greenery, water bodies, waves of ridges reaching out to the sky, foggy sunrises and colourful sunsets are a treat to your eyes as well as for the camera.

Darter Photography takes you to the Kannan Devan Hills, to learn how to photograph landscapes in a way that justice to the scenery unfolding in front you. This workshop will take you through the secrets of making great looking landscape images and help you unfold the perspectives of a landscape-artist through your camera. Join us in discovering the joy of capturing the beauty of Munnar’s landscapes and learn what goes behind making permanent imprints of the colours of the hills in your camera.

I have had several requests all through last year to conduct photography-centric day-trips out of Bangalore. Here is the first of a series of them to come.

You will recognize a fragrance of heritage in every corner of Melukote. The old temples, the large Kalyani that has hosted several movie shoots, the smaller Raya Gopura that also has its beauty tested in the movies, a Sanskrit Academy, two ancient temples, a Vaishnava heritage that is preserved as good as it was a few centuries ago and several houses, temples and structures that have a stamp of past all over them — a quick glimpse of Melukote for you.

As the winter is about the begin, weather is at its best across India and migratory birds start arriving in the plains, we have a whole lot of expert-led photography tours coming up. We have something happening almost every week this month. Check out some of the destinations we are going to in November and do join us on some of the tours.

The tour of Hampi is one of our flagship tours that is extremely popular and very well received, as it takes you through various genres of photography and not just the well-known historical landmarks of Hampi. In our tour to Goa, our expert wildlife photographer Shreeram will take you through the river systems of Goa to see and capture some less-seen birds in these parts, including as many as 8 species of kingfishers. The Rajasthan tour gives you perfect introduction to the desert country, offering a wide variety of photography opportunities to capture the culture, heritage and landscapes of this beautiful state. For those who want to learn to make good pictures and get a jumpstart in photography, join our photography workshop in Koramangala Bangalore.
