Taken at the onset of autumn in Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Park - some beautifully coloured leaves on a sunny day. Taken from below with sunlight falling on the leaves from the top makes them even more vibrant.

This is a macro shot of anther and stigma of a yellow lily flower, with the former full of pollens. The shot was taken indoor with the natural light from the sun coming in through the windows. I used my old Canon EOS 400D with an EF-S 60mm (f/2.8) macro lens for this shot.

I took this photo one early morning in northern Uganda in May 2008. I was there on a field visit and we were staying in a village with few facilities. The place was hot and I couldn'’t sleep much. As soon as the dawn broke, I got out to see this beautifully-coloured sky. The building where I was staying appears as silhouette.

This is one of my favourite shots of the baobabs in the Avenue of the Baobabs. Here, I tried to contrast the dark silhouettes of the baobabs with the colourful horizon immediately after the sunset.
