The winter is very pleasant in Maharashtra as it changes the look of this area, attracting photographers and lovers of nature. Since the air is fresh and free of pollution and the views are clearly visible, it is exciting to try to capture this season. If you have the privilege of staying at the best forest resort in Maharashtra, Avani Tiger Resort, then you should consider yourself lucky.
This is why the location of the resort can be considered ideal for winter shooting, as there are many opportunities to capture the fauna and flora around the resort. Here are some tips and spots to make the most of your winter photo sessions in Maharashtra:
1. Golden Hour Magic
- Tip: During the shooting, it is advisable to go out in the morning and in the evening since this is the best time to capture natural light, also known as the golden light. Try to get a picture at these times so that you are able to get the beautiful red warmth of the landscape.
- Spot: Take time to be at the resort’s viewing decks or the nearby hills to see the sun rise and set over the low-lying, mist-shrouded forest. The light in this type of weathering is very gentle and soft, which contributes a lot to revealing the details of surfaces and also the shades of the winter pictures.
2. Capture the Mist
- Tip: Another challenge that arises during winter is the creation of a mysterious veil of morning mist. Be on the lookout for the mist while wandering around the trees and over the topography to try and capture some images of it.
- Spot: Go out for a walk through the neighboring meadows and valleys early in the morning. The mist in these areas brings the effect of dream-like feel to images, and especially when the trees and wildlife are made clear silhouettes against this.
3. Wildlife Wonders
- Tip: This is because most of the animals are more active during the cold season, especially during the winter season; hence, it is the best time to conduct wildlife photography. Patience should be rendered at this stage with the aim of capturing them as they go about their daily activities and dealings with each other.
- Spot: Wildlife-filled forests and several other reserves are in close proximity to the fecal sample collection site. Hunting is possible to come across herds of deer, wild boar, and even tigers. Good wildlife viewing is best done in the early morning and in the late afternoon.
5. Capture the Local Flora
- Tip: This is perhaps the best time to be thinking of specific species of plants that grow well during the cool season. It will be crucial for you to look at the bright wild flowers and other plants that can survive the harsh winter season.
- Spot: Spend some time strolling along the beauty of the resort’s gardens, where these plants can also be located in the surrounding forest region. Such photos can be good for contrasting the bright and beautiful flowers and the rather pale winter colors.
6. Work with Shadows and Patterns
- Tip: During winter, the sun is low to the ground, and this causes shadows and also patterns on the surface of the ground. Apply these to enhance the photos, as they contain active components.
- Spot: It is recommended to look for such symbols in the forest or on some rocks scattered on the forest floor. There are some interesting possibilities to play with the invention of trees and shadows, rocks, and the nature of the winter.
7. Look for Architectural Contrasts
- Tip: One may easily take picture-worthy photos of arts and structures as well as the natural winter scenery. Identify where in the architecture the season is being incorporated, or rather, how the architecture is connecting with the season.
- Spot: Take pictures depicting the results of the traditional architecture of the resort in the scenery of the winter forest. Such evident combinations of human work with that created by nature deliver remarkable pictures.
CONCLUSION
A winter indeed is a perfect season to visit Maharashtra, particularly around Avani Tiger Resort if you’re a nature and especially a wildlife photographer. Thanks to many various terrains, numerous fauna and flora, and specific lighting, it provides plenty of opportunities to take amazing photographs. Learn to freeze and play with lighter and get the best results in your photos with the blessings of winter.
