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.
Singalila is one of the very few places in the world where you can spot and photograph the elusive red panda in its natural habitat. The misty Himalayan forests also offer breathtaking landscapes and unique biodiversity.
