As the monsoons loomed over coastal India in early June 2016, a small group of photography enthusiasts and nature lovers set off to the wondrous forests of the Western Ghats at Agumbe on a photography tour organized by Darter Photography.

Over the 3 days, we explored the forests around the campsite and photographed the amazing biodiversity – from bugs and beetles to frogs and snakes to scorpions and spiders to colourful fungi. And we trekked up a nearby hill to get a bird’s eye view of the area and witnessed a glorious sunset.
