Welcome to my
wild world.
"In the stillness of the wild, I found what design often forgets, the patience to observe before acting."
Welcome to my wild world
Photography is not a hobby. It is a parallel practice.
The same skills that make a good designer. Observation, patience, the ability to sit with uncertainty long enough to understand it, make a good wildlife photographer. The wild teaches you to look before you frame, to understand behaviour before you act, to be present enough that the subject forgets you're there.
I've photographed across the Western ghats and the Himalayas.
The connection
In the stillness of the wild, I found what design often forgets: the patience to observe before acting.
Every great product decision I've made has started from exactly the kind of attention I learned in the field. Watching. Waiting. Not projecting, listening.
