Photography is a field that is all about fascination and creativity. As much fancy as it looks, the field of photography comes with many challenges. Especially when it is nature and wildlife photography, it has got its charm and a set of challenges. Photographers need to be spontaneous as this field is all about dynamism. And one such name whose work is adored by many is Neel Sarkhedi. Based in Ankleshwar, Gujarat, he started his career as a photographer in 2019.
An entrepreneur as well as a wildlife photographer, Neel has made photography his full-time profession. While his job is one of the most lucrative professions, Neel’s love for nature and wildlife has seen him excel in the field of photography. Through his work, the ace photographer is showcasing the beauty of nature in the best way possible.
As environment and wildlife conservation has been a crucial topic for many years, Neel is doing his bit to make people aware of not exploiting nature and habitats. In the last three years, Neel has visited multiple forest reserves and wildlife parks of the country. Having captured a majority of wildlife creatures and even rare species through his lens, the photographer is urging many people to not harm the environment.
“We need to understand that a pleasant environment is the best gift humanity has got. If we exploit it, we might be in trouble in the years to come. Besides deforestation, we should bring an end to animal cruelty and stop the increase in the pollution levels. Throwing wastage on roads and rivers also harms the animals. It needs to be stopped to maintain a sustainable environment”, quotes Neel.
