Mohit Midha
Although he learnt almost all he knows through trial and error in the
field, has honed his skills with an advanced course from the New
York Institute of Photography. He had the honour of being one of
the six students profiled out of thousands in 2001 in their magazine
Photoworld for exceptional achievement. His biggest
break came when his ideas and work were approved by the people at National
Geographic. He now has a section dedicated only to his work on their
website (www.nationalgeographic.co.in). He has done work for various
top national publications such as India Today Plus, Hindustan Times,
Times of India, Today, Around Town, etc. On the international front,
he is working on assignments for publications and travel magazines such
as Destinasian. Wildlywise.com is his own
project, which he hopes to someday make the final word on wildlife and
adventure in India - the aim being to initiate conservation through
enhancement and spread of knowledge about his country's natural wonders.
Also, his pictures have been used by many organisations and companies, such as I.L.O., Usha Sriram, Galileo, etc. for their promotional activities. one of his recent asignment was for the Y.P.O. (Young Presidents' Organisation). Besides this, to keep indulging in his love for the outdoors, he has been on a number of bike, jeep and trekking expeditions to the Himalayas and many other parts of the country. He has participated as a volunteer in the 1999, 2001 and 2003 All India Tiger Census, which appear to be his life's highlights as he got to trek in his favourite jungles of Corbett National Park. He has also been a part of the organizing body of the high altitude auto race called the Raide de Himalaya organized by the Himalayan Motorsports Association. He has undertaken training in whitewater rafting and has lead various groups for Snow Leopard Adventures. He is at present part of a jeep expedition covering the entire Indian Himalayan belt, ranging from Kashmir to Arunachal Pradesh. |
