Presentation by: Dr Somdutt Prasad

This presentation offers an intimate visual journey into the world of polar bears, captured during two expeditions in 2022 and 2024. Through a curated collection of images, it explores the distinctive behaviours of these majestic Arctic creatures, with a special focus on the tender and instinctive bonds between mothers and their cubs. The photographs not only document the resilience and adaptability of polar bears in a changing environment but also highlight moments of playfulness, survival, and deep familial connection, inviting viewers to reflect on both the fragility and enduring spirit of life in the far north

Presentation by: Praveen P Mohandas

“Birds are the harbingers of a new day, new season, changes and differences in our immediate environment. To most of us, birds represent musical sounds and bewitching colours. As a photographer this seems to me a very shallow understanding of the avian world because we are distracted by mere superficial elements. There is more to birds than what appears on the surface – tales of strength, survival, energy and beauty. The presentation that you are about to see is an exploration of the captivating world of birds through black and white photographs, showcasing the beauty, texture, and contrast of birds in their natural environment highlighting their behaviour and interactions without the distraction of colour.”

Presentation by: Satish H

Many times, we do not look at nature in detail or minutely. We do not observe the intricacies and the creativity of nature.  

Most of us take Macro pictures of insects, butterflies or spiders. This we do to show the species or maybe sometimes, its characteristics. But this presentation of Nature in Close-Up may not contain these subjects as a whole, but Satish will be showing the opportunities that one has to closely look for in – Nature.
