The Extraordinary BIRDS OF INDIA - Let There Be FLIGHT | Planet Earth II & Hans Zimmer Tribute

Let There Be FLIGHT - The Extraordinary BIRDS OF INDIA | Planet Earth II & Hans Zimmer Tribute
With India having tremendously rich and varied habitats and ecosystems, it’s no surprise that the second most populous country in the world is also home to a plethora of avian diversity. According to Avibase (an online taxonomic database that organizes bird taxonomic and distribution data globally), there are 1,364 known species of resident and migratory birds that make up India’s great natural wealth.
In this short montage video that I filmed over the last 2 and a half years, I’ll take you into the forests, grasslands, wetlands, deserts and shores, and bring you some of the most breathtaking species that are out there.
From acts of courtship, to building nests, raising young ones and continuing life’s extraordinary journey, here’s bringing you an intimate glimpse into some of the birds of India.

This montage short was filmed over the last 2 odd years across India's various habitats and ecosystems. It's been inspired by wildlife documentary series like Planet Earth II, Our Planet and Seven Worlds One Planet. I remember feeling incredibly moved with every single episode and its stunning cinematography, not to forget Hans Zimmer's legendary OSTs. The COVID-19 pandemic eventually made me switch from filming / producing music videos and commercials, to documenting the natural world and telling its many stories. Watch this video on a large screen if possible. Don't forget to turn the volume up to enjoy the diverse birdsong along with the visuals.

I want to start wildlife photography as a hobby which camera should be better for me as beginner. Budget around 1.5L for body only. Well I'm more into videos than photos but I want perfect combo for both.

[@KennethLawrencePhotography]

You can check out the EOS R7 and R10.

[@anjalibhelande43]

You excel yourself each time, dearest Ken … you sure are blessed , bringing infinite joy to city folk in particular who are forced to live in concrete jungles and put up with the clash and clang of cacophonous vehicles! … what a glorious riot of colours, elegant avian take offs and landings , gracious , lyrical movements in slow motion, translucent skyscapes with celestial sunlight and damp yet exuberant you , surprised by joy and the witnessing of God’s infinite , harmonious creativity ! God bless …
