Art in Bird Photography

by Sreedhara Alavattam (note that Parham Pourahmad has a scheduling conflict and so will not be presenting this time)

Description - Bird photography is a captivating blend of art and nature, where the photographer tries to capture fleeting moments of avian grace and beauty. In my bird photographs, I strive to translate the essence of avian beauty into compelling art by capturing the subtle nuances of their forms and behaviors. I focus on the interplay of light and shadow and compose each shot to frame their natural grace and movement. My goal is to turn fleeting moments into timeless art, inviting viewers to experience the delicate and often overlooked splendor of the bird world through my lens.
