As an medium to recharge himself for all challenges of life, he feels it to be of utmost necessity to have his association with his lifeline – “arms of Mother Nature”.
He claims that if one closely observes her, she teaches the lessons of life which no management sessions can teach. Every step or move she makes, has an intent and a learning. He also boasts that she helps him learn the importance of being patient, seize the right opportunity, strategize moves, hard work, dedication, discipline, etc.
With more than 10 years getting closely associated with the jungles, Yogesh has a rich knowledge about her traits. To capture moments when Mother Nature poses in front of him, he uses Sony alpha 77 mark 2 and Sony alpha 580 with Sigma 500 f 4.5 and treasures the moments.Quite a few of his images have been exhibited, awarded and published acknowledging his efforts to document natures’ mysteries and the magical world in its habitat.
