Mumbaikar Nayan Khanolkar, recently bagged a prestigious wildlife photography award for a shot of a leopard spotted at Aarey Colony. The honour, called the Wildlife Photographer Award 2016, is considered to be the ‘Oscar’ for wildlife photography.

In Khanolkar’s picture, a leopard can be seen almost lounging under a low yellow light bulb, in a narrow alley between two tribal homes in Goregaon’s Aarey Milk Colony. There is so much to learn from this photo and the photographer’s story.
