Researcher's Page
Through the years we have been fortunate to meet some great photographers and field workers, professional or amateur, who with their work have produced outstanding images. Some of these may appear in journals, but sadly too many great images may never see a wider viewing audience. This feature will profile the work of these photographer naturalists.
Our hope is that these people will receive wider recognition, and if you are interested in purchasing or collaborating with these individuals in related projects you can contact them directly.
India - David V. Raju
David Raju's work prompted us to begin this page. Mary and I met David last year while we were doing our scouting trip to India. David works as the resident naturalist at one of the lodges, and he is not only a great naturalist but also a keen photographer, working passionately with rather limited equipment. When I saw David's work this year I was inspired, for his wonderful frog and toad images were made with a 100mm macro lens and the pop-up flash of his Canon 7D camera.
Clockwise from upper left: Hylarana malabarica, Nyctibatchus major,
Raorchestes chalazodes, Raochestes manohari
Clockwise from upper left: Philautus glandulosus, Raorchestes ponmudi,
Raorchestes resplendens, Raorchestes signatus,
Clockwise from upper left:
Reed-break bush frog, Raorchestes ochlandrae, Rhachophorus lateralis in a breeding cluster,
Leopard gecko, Vine Snake,
Rhacophorus pseudomalabaricus,
Additionally, David has a field guide to the Dragonflies of India that will be appearing soon, illustrated with his photographs. India's dragonflies are diverse and colorful, and here's a sample.
Lesser Blue-wing Dragonfly, Rhyothemis triangularis.
David has participated in numerous field collecting trips throughout India in search of new species of frogs and treefrogs. He has captured several species new to science, and is listed in the appropriate journals as the collector. Hopefully, he'll get a species named after him!
Living in India David, like everyone else, relishes any chance he may have with tigers. On an elephant, he was lucky enough to capture this incredible scene, as two young tigers tackled a wild boar.
