Masai Mara Capturing the Wilderness

About the Book

The Masai Mara national reserve, covering an area of about 1510 square kilometres, is considered as one of the regions in Africa with the highest wildlife density. It is part of the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem, and continues as the Serengeti Plains in Tanzania.  The Mara is an ecosystem that hosts a plethora of wildlife. Ranging from vibrant birds to the royal Big 5, it truly is a photographer’s haven. It contains all that a wildlife photographer can hope for. No two days; indeed no two moments here are ever the same. Aditya was witness to this, as his photographs demonstrate. A cheetah climbing onto a jeep; or a pride of lions savouring their prized kill, the endless energy possessed in this region has been captured by Aditya’s unerring lens.
