Into the valley....hills Craving doesn't mean to crave on trees only.. Carve your life so beautiful that one can learn the art of carving... It is not craving but it is prosses of burning from inside and giving this world something worthy..know as oil.. A tree burn it self so human can light up. It's learning prosses from nature how beautiful you can be even after one burn you, hurts you. They can do anything to outer body but not to the soul. Nature is power. #Nature #love #worshipping #care #motherearth #travel #travelphotography #travelblogger #parvati #power #netgeo #awesome_earthpix #Theculturetrip #unlimitedindia #canon #yourshotphotographer #watchthisinstagood #photographersdiscovery #MySimpleClick #follow xd #nglive #NGcreative #netgeowild #inthefield #photooftheday @natgeocreative @photosociety @natgeomedia
Perfect camouflage! I almost missed the second one peeking over the other's back 😁 #Repost @stevewinterphoto ・・・ @stevewinterphoto I am working on a @natgeo Jaguar story in the Pantanal of Brazil. Here is a curious cub in front and mom behind. Jaguars are the 3rd largest of the big cats. Found from US / Mexico border to northern Argentina. Jaguars have rebounded in this area where 95% of the land is privately owned. In the past many ranchers would kill the cats when they ate their cattle. Today in this area tourism brings in much more money to the local economy than cattle ranching. So the jaguar population is increasing. But revenge killings of jaguars happen close to this area and all throughout the jaguars range. Also poaching for skins, bones and teeth is growing for the first time since the 1970’s to feed the demand for Asian Traditional Medicine and luxury items from endangered species. “Stop the demand and the killing can too.” @wildaid My first story with big cats was the 1st @natgeo Jaguar story 20 years ago! It has changed my life working with the magical and magnificent cats of the world. Animals have emotions just like we have - moms play with their kids - like this mom and cub. Forests provide us with up to 50% of the oxygen we breathe - oceans the rest. They give us 75% of the fresh water. If we can save the forest of the Amazon and other areas in Central and South America for the JAGUAR and Puma. The forests of Central Africa for the leopard, lion, elephants etc. And the forests of South Asia for the Tigers and Leopards. If you save the top predator in any ecosystem you save everything that lives with them. So if - We Save Big Cats we can help Save Ourselves. Please visit CauseAnUproar.org to find out other ways to become involved to save big cats! #follow me @stevewinterphoto to see more images from my work with @natgeo and Thanks!! @stevewinterphoto @natgeo @nglive #nglive #natgeochannel @natgeochannel @natgeowild #natgeowild @thephotosociety #NGcreative @natgeocreative #fursforlife #wildlifeconservation #wildlifephotojournalism #BCI #bigcatsintiative #startwith1thing @projetooncafari @refugioecologicocaiman @pantheracats @pantanalsafar

141.- ¡Buenos días! La hice ayer, pero me puse a revelarla algo tarde y no eran horas... Os dejo a esta simpática mantis religiosa, que se portó la mar de bien posando y siendo paciente conmigo, que no la dejé descansar en todo el rato. Cambiando de tema, he podido invertir (por fin) en una lente nueva, que estoy deseando sacarle todo el potencial que tiene, pero ya que me pongo tiene que ser en condiciones. Nada de pruebas jeje. A ver si encuentro un hueco y me escapo con mi nuevo juguete a hacer cosillas 😊 ¡Hasta la próxima! #photography #fotografia #instaphoto #instafotografia #instafoto #instapic #pictures #photooftheday #365project #proyecto365 #likeforlike #picoftheday #instaphoto #art #igers #igersgranada #canon #canonphotography #canonspain #canonusa #canonnature #ngcreative #natgeospain #natgeopic #natgeo #prayingmantis #mantisreligiosa #macrophotography #macrofotografia

SWIPE >>: These three images were taken literally a minute apart as the sun set on the 19th of June 2016 in Maasai Mara. You can tell by the position of the sun. One of the things i love about Nature/Wildlife photography, such moments cannot be reproduced. Nature is unique everytime. #clementwild
The existence of wildlife is a direct reflection of the mindset of humans around their habitat. How can we be okay with telling our grandkids that we had these beautiful creatures and we poached them to extinction? What possible good justification can we give the generations who will only see these creatures in photos? #clementwild #Tigersofindia #Bandhavgarh
My search of knowledge on Big cats, their behavior and habitats took me across the world to central India, in the Umaria district of Madhya Pradesh into the scenic Bandhavgarh National Park. I learnt a lot on this journey among them being that this is one of the most difficult cats to photograph. The tiger is extremely elusive and dwells in very thick forests, their beautiful stripes camouflage perfectly making them hard to spot. But when they grace you with their presence it's simply spectacular! This male cub is only 2.5 years old (yes 2.5, they live up to 13 years). This is definitely one of the most beautiful cats I have ever photographed. #ClementWild #Tigersofindia #Bandhavgarh

139.- ¡Buenas noches! Hoy no podía irme sin enseñaros una fotito que he realizado hoy en una excursión que hemos hecho al campo. He pillado esta "mosca abejorro" (o llamada científicamente como "bombylius major") y la verdad es que son dificilísimas de captar, ya que tienen una velocidad impresionante al mover las alas. Por ende, su rapidez de desplazamiento es bestial, no te da tiempo a seguirla. Podréis pensar que puede ser como cualquier "mosca", pero no, es una mosca que sólo se alimenta del néctar de las flores y por ello ayuda a la polinización. No me gustan los insectos, ¿verdad? Jaja. Ahora, ¡a descansar! 😊 #photography #fotografia #instaphoto #instafotografia #instapic #pictures #photooftheday #365project #proyecto365 #365projectphotography #picoftheday #instaphoto #art #igers #igersgranada #macrophotography #macro #canon #canonphotography #canonspain #canonnature #ngcreative #natgeospain #natgeopic #bombyliusmajor #moscaabejorro #insects #dipterobraquicero

GREAT NEWS!!!! Last year China promised to stop the sale of elephant ivory by the end of 2017. Now it is making good on that promise: 67 ivory carving factories and retail shops across the country have closed down in March, and the rest will by the of the year. This are great news for the 30,000 elephants killed each year for their tusks in Africa. We can each participate on social media and make our voices heard for the elephants that have no voice in their future. When the buying stops the killing can too!! @wildaid As every 15 minutes a elephant is killed for its ivory. We need to make owning ivory an act unbecoming of a civilized people. We need to all become people who respect the lives of elephants and their right to walk this earth as they have for 1000’s of years - free and safe from harm by humans.

Will he ever be King? On average, only one in eight male lions survive to adulthood. Young cubs are very venerable. Illness, lack of food and territory take over top their reasons of death. If they beat the odds and reach sexual maturity, usually at the age of 2, the Pride males kick them out of the pride to fend for themselves. Those are the odds this young cub faces if he will ever sit at the Throne. Read more on Lion Supremacy on my blog, direct link on my bio. #clementwild
@Regrann from @stevewinterphoto - @natgeo @stevewinterphoto Happy Holidays to All!! Here is a #coyote overlooking the #GoldenGateBridge and #SanFrancisco. An outtake from my cougar story. Before setting up in #GriffithPark in LA and getting the Hollywood Cougar - I had cameras above the Golden Gate Bridge on a ridge line in #MarinCounty overlooking San Francisco. Though there were signs of a cougar - I never got an image of one - so I moved the cameras to LA. As we branch out of our cities looking for new homes we move into the homes of animals. We do live with wildlife in our everyday lives, including small and larger predators. As with the cougars of the Santa Monica Rec Area - our largest Urban Park north of LA - there has never been a attack by a cougar on humans. We have not been apart of predators “image search” for food for millennium. We are upright walking on 2 legs with forward facing eyes. And we do not taste good! We use shampoos, deodorants, toothpaste, perfumes, we ingest chemicals in our everyday lives - we stink. So lets all live together. We have found ways to do this with local indigenous people in remote areas where they have livestock - which might require predator proof corrals to protect their livestock while keeping intact the local ecosystem. #follow me @stevewinterphoto to see more images from my work with @natgeo and Thanks!! @stevewinterphoto @natgeo @nglive #nglive #natgeochannel @natgeochannel @natgeowild #natgeowild @thephotosociety #NGcreative @natgeocreative #fursforlife #wildlifeconservation #inthefield #wildlifephotojournalism #BCI #bigcatsintiative #photooftheday #beauty #startwith1thing @projetooncafari @refugioecologicocaiman @pantheracats @pantanalsafaris - #regrann #California #US

@Regrann from @natgeo - @stevewinterphoto for @natgeo A young elephant in the wilds of South Africa. GREAT NEWS!!!! Last year China promised to stop the sale of elephant ivory by the end of 2017. Now it is making good on that promise: 67 ivory carving factories and retail shops across the country will close down on Friday, and the rest by the of the year. This is great news for the 30,000 elephants killed each year for their tusks in Africa. We can each participate on social media and make our voices heard for the elephants that have no voice in their future.

Photo by Maggie Steber. Night falls on the beautiful city of Arles in the south of France. This is the calm before the storm, so to speak, as the city streets will soon be filled with photographers, publishers, and curators here to celebrate and share their love of photography during Rencontres Arles, a week long festival founded in 1970. People come from all over the world for this inventive gathering that has served as a springboard for photographers and contemporary creativity. @RencontresArles #southoffrance #loveofphotography #ngcreative #womenofvision #ngm
@natgeo @stevewinterphoto Cheetah cubs with mom behind them. Cheetah’s, the world’s fastest land animal are losing numbers rapidly. There are only 7,100 left in the wild. Habitat loss is the #1 reason for the decline. Also hunting of their food, and turning wilderness into agriculture or livestock production. The pet trade is also a factor. 2/3 of the cheetah population live outside protected areas as cheetahs need to roam. These areas need to be friendly to wildlife with prey species protected for these predators - or we face a world without these magnificent creatures. Scientists desire the cheetah to be re-classified as endangered, which will help them. The Forests and Grasslands where they live provide all living creatures with up to 50% of the oxygen we breathe - oceans provide the rest. And Forests and Grasslands give us 75% of the fresh water we need to live. If we can save the forest of the Amazon and other areas in Central and South America for the Jaguar and Puma. The forests of Central Africa for the cheetah, leopard, lion, elephants etc. And the forests of South Asia for the Tigers and Leopards. If you save the top predator in any ecosystem you save everything that lives with them. So if - We Save Big Cats we can help Save Ourselves. National Geographic launched the Big Cats Initiative to raise awareness and implement change to the dire situation facing big cats.

@stevewinterphoto @natgeo And now for something completely different! Here is a giant anteater walking across a bridge over a lake in the Caiman Ecological Reserve in Mato Grosso Sur, Brazil I was hoping for a jaguar for my @natgeo Jaguar story - which I did get - and will post in the near future. Jaguars are the 3rd largest of the big cats. Found from US / Mexico border to northern Argentina. Jaguars have rebounded in this area where 95% of the land is privately owned. In the past many ranchers would kill the cats when they ate their cattle. Today in this area tourism brings in much more money to the local economy than cattle ranching. So the jaguar population is increasing. But revenge killings of jaguars happen close to this area and all throughout the jaguars range. Also poaching for skins, bones and teeth is growing for the first time since the 1970’s to feed the demand for Asian Traditional Medicine and luxury items from endangered species. “When the buying stops, the killing can too.” @wildaid My first story with big cats was the 1st @natgeo Jaguar story 20 years ago! It has changed my life working with the magical and magnificent cats of the world. Forests provide us with up to 50% of the oxygen we breathe - oceans the rest. They give us 75% of the fresh water.

@natgeo @stevewinterphoto - Read the @natgeo article below The Rare African Park Where Elephants Are Thriving http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/01/wildlife-watch-chad-zakouma-elephants-poaching/ Zakouma National Park in Chad has been managed by the conservation group African Parks @africanparksnetwork since 2010 where they have secured the park, put a stop to poaching and elephants are now on the rise in the first time in over a decade… An elephant is killed every 15 minutes - but African Parks is turning the tide - support organizations that work. I am a big cat guy and believe in the importance of targeted change - @africanparksnetwork is doing that - as is @natgeo National Geographic launched the Big Cats Initiative to raise awareness and implement change to the dire situation facing big cats.

@natgeo @stevewinterphoto Happy Holidays to All!! Here is a coyote overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco. An outtake from my cougar story. Before setting up in Griffith Park in LA and getting the Hollywood Cougar - I had cameras above the Golden Gate Bridge on a ridge line in Marin County overlooking San Francisco. Though there were signs of a cougar - I never got an image of one - so I moved the cameras to LA. As we branch out of our cities looking for new homes we move into the homes of animals. We do live with wildlife in our everyday lives, including small and larger predators. As with the cougars of the Santa Monica Rec Area - our largest Urban Park north of LA - there has never been a attack by a cougar on humans. We have not been apart of predators “image search” for food for millennium. We are upright walking on 2 legs with forward facing eyes. And we do not taste good! We use shampoos, deodorants, toothpaste, perfumes, we ingest chemicals in our everyday lives - we stink. So lets all live together. We have found ways to do this with local indigenous people in remote areas where they have livestock - which might require predator proof corrals to protect their livestock while keeping intact the local ecosystem. #follow me @stevewinterphoto to see more images from my work with @natgeo and Thanks!! @stevewinterphoto @natgeo @nglive #nglive #natgeochannel @natgeochannel @natgeowild #natgeowild @thephotosociety #NGcreative @natgeocreative #fursforlife #wildlifeconservation #inthefield #wildlifephotojournalism #BCI #bigcatsintiative #photooftheday #beauty #startwith1thing @projetooncafari @refugioecologicocaiman @pantheracats @pantanalsafaris
