About Colours: Colours represents our Natural World & my passion for photography. It is a collection of my photographs ranging from Nature to Wildlife, Cultures to Festivals and Portraits; most of which are from travel across my diverse Country - India.
The richness of Flora & Fauna ranges across India reflecting its abundant wildlife. India is home to a large number of mammals, birds, reptiles, insects & amphibians.
India, lying within the Indomalaya ecozone, hosts significant biodiversity; it is home to 7.6% of all mammalian, 12.6% of avian, 6.2% of reptilian, and 6.0% of flowering plant species. Many ecoregions, such as the shola forests, also exhibit extremely high rates of endemism; overall, 33% of Indian plant species are endemic. India's forest cover ranges from the tropical rainforest of the Andaman Islands, Western Ghats, and Northeast India to the coniferous forest of the Himalaya. Between these extremes lie the sal-dominated moist deciduous forest of eastern India; teak-dominated dry deciduous forest of central and southern India; and the babul-dominated thorn forest of the central Deccan and western Gangetic plain.
India is the world's most culturally, linguistically and genetically diverse geographical entity after the African continent.
