That wasn’t an end to trying out new things and taking risks in her life. This avid nature lover, now a veteran in wildlife photography with numerous breathtaking photographs to her credit has made a career by trying new things. In a conversation with Gayathri Menon, the first woman wildlife photographer in India, Rathika Ramasamy takes us through her journey.

ex: You studied to become an engineer, followed by an MBA, then how did photography happen?

I love travelling, photography started with capturing memories wherever I travel since school days. My father gifted me a camera when I was in my 10th standard. I used to click flowers and coconut trees in my garden. I used to click my parents on any special occasion. That’s how it all started.

ex: Can you describe your journey? What drew you to wildlife in specific?
