DALIDA INNES PHOTOGRAPHY

Let's Capture Their Story Together

Wildlife photography is an adventure in itself. From scaling dangerous terrain and weathering tough climates to get that perfect shot, wildlife photography safari in India is a fun activity for taking a break from the monotony of life. When it comes to photographic safaris, India has options like no other country. 

The Snow Leopard sighting is one of the rarest in the world, just to see it , it is a great opportunity so let's do this together and try to get the images of the snow leopard.

In India, snow leopards are found in the western Himalayas including Jammu and Kasmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Spiti valley, and Arunachal Pradesh. The total Population of snow leopards in India is estimated to be around 450-500. The population status of the snow leopard is decreasing in India due to the illegal trading of animals and different parts of the animal.

Due to their fur camouflaging them, snow leopards are difficult to spot in their natural habitat however, they can be spotted under the guidance of experts in conservation areas.There is a place in the Spiti Valley named kibber, it has a special reputation for Snow Leopards. The local community of Kibber is partnered with Nature Conservation Foundation (NCF) and protecting these amazing cats. Therefore, wildlife lovers from all around the world come to Spiti Valley to spot this beautiful creature.

The safari is not a zoo. There are no guarantees on what you will see. Likewise, you cannot expect that snow leopard will be waiting for you. So, please do keep these few things in mind.

Wildlife photo safaris are great for amateur, professional and non-photographer, it’s not about only taking a picture , it is also about observing the behaviour… If you wish to join me on my next workshop, or  have some questions about the safari, please feel free to contact me
