For years, I’ve wandered through Sri Lanka’s wetlands, forests, and national parks with a camera in hand and a heart full of home. Soon, I’ll be opening the door for others to join me, to see the island the way I’ve seen it, through patience, light, and quiet wonder. A new wildlife & bird photography journey is coming. Stay tuned, the adventure begins soon.
Just minutes from the busy streets of Colombo, the world slows down. Purple herons glide low over the reeds, jacanas tiptoe across floating lilies, and the morning light paints the water in gold. These urban wetlands are where my love for bird photography truly deepened, a reminder that nature survives even in the heart of the city. This will be the first stop on the upcoming photography tour. A gentle beginning, where we learn to see before we click.
Sri Lanka’s forests have their own rhythm, slow, ancient, and full of quiet tension. Whether it’s the open plains of Yala or the deep, shadowed forests of Wilpattu, every drive feels like entering a story still being written. Leopards, elephants, raptors… but also the small moments: dust catching the evening sun, a lone deer listening to the wind, the silence before a call. This is where we practice patience and where the island often rewards it.
