Galloping
Rhino
This time I am before you with a photograph titled, “Galloping
Rhino”. I was on a trip to Dudhwa National Park of U.P (India) during the May
of 2015. This park is situated
in the Terai area spread near the Indo-Nepal border
in the Lakhimpur Kheri District
(U.P). This place has buffer of reserved forest areas on the northern and
southern sides. Major attractions
of Dudhwa National Park are the tigers,
swamp deer, rhinoceros , sambar deer, barking deer, spotted deer, jackal, wild Boar
etc. I had an elephant safari in the grassland of this park on one pleasant
morning. There I spotted few Rhinos who were busy in grazing. I suddenly noticed
a young Rhino who seemed over alert of our presence. As our elephant proceeded
towards him, it started running from the spot where it was grazing. Rhino’s movement
was quite thrilling. We stopped going ahead and began to click the interesting gallop.
A few frames were clicked at continuous
shooting mode of camera. This is one of them. The speed of shutter was kept at
high end in order to capture the fast move of Rhino. I used a Nikon D 90 Camera
to take this picture. The lens was Nikon, 70-300 mm.
