At elephUswild, we believe the true art of nature and wildlife photography is best learned in the heart of the wilderness. Guided by Som, this immersive experience teaches you to observe, anticipate, and capture fleeting moments in nature. With a focus on mastering light, understanding animal behaviour and ethical practices, Som helps you balance technical mastery with creative storytelling, turning every frame into a reflection of both the wild’s beauty and your own unique vision.
Macro tours focus on capturing the beauty of small and fascinating creatures—such as insects, amphibians, reptiles, and other tiny wonders of nature.
A macro lens is recommended, but you can also get started with extension tubes, close-up filters, or versatile lenses. Mentors provide guidance on using whichever gear you have. You also need external lighting sources as many of the subjects photographed during macro tours are nocturnal.

Safety is our top priority. Our naturalists and mentors ensure ethical practices, with no harm to you or the creatures being photographed.
