BEFORE THEY VANISH

EYE IN THE SKY

TRAILBLAZER

From 0 to 100 and 100 to 0 in less than 3 seconds. What does it take for this outstanding feat? Evolutionary engineering under the supervision of the best engineer on earth – Nature.

Slim, muscular, and lean legs to minimize air resistance, a small rounded head set on a long neck and a flexible spine to maneuver at will, a deep chest with a flattened rib cage enclosing the lungs of a Sherpa to churn in O2 to feed 150 breaths per minute.

Special thick pads on its feet for traction and a long tail that acts as a rudder to steer, stabilize and balance. Non-retractable claws, an adaptation to help maintain traction like a soccer player’s cleats. Distinctive black “tear tracks” running from the inside corner of each eye to the mouth serve as an anti-glare mechanism for daytime hunting.

With flexible hips and free-moving shoulder blades, the cheetah's skeleton is a sort of spring – storing and releasing energy at will – attaining a stride length of an incredible 25 feet per push.

A cat so incredible yet so vulnerable, fewer than 8000 roam the wild. The onus is on us – the humans – to take steps to prevent these wonders of nature from going extinct.

Here’s my tribute to the gems of the Savannah – Cheetahs

TITAN

Cosmic Trinity is a collection of three 1/1s — An ode to the mighty cosmos featuring images of the Sun, Moon and Stars respectively. The collection also includes an image of a Deep-Sky Object featuring the Orion Nebula. This image will be raffled to one of three collectors.

As Carl Sagan rightly quoted, “The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of star stuff.” So are these images.

Cosmic Trinity

“We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate for having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein do we err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with the extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings: they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.” ― **Henry Beston**

Symbiosis celebrates the coexistence of humans with nature. No matter how hard we - the humans - try to shield ourselves from the elements of nature, nature finds ways and means to remind us of our deep rooted connect. We are one big family, we did co-exist in close proximity - with respect and concern to each other but the gap has widened - thanks to our ignorance and lack of empathy. Though a harsh reality, we humans also possess the immense capability to correct the course and make it right. It's very much evident in distant lands, away from the madness of our cities, where the thread of connection was never ruptured. Be it in the Savannah of Kenya or the Mighty Himalayas, occupants of these far corners have long realized the importance of co-existence. The very motto of ‘Live & Let Live’ held high.

“If we were to disappear overnight, the rest of the world would get on pretty well. But if they were to disappear, the land’s ecosystems would collapse.” ― **David Attenborough**

**Symbiosis collection features 16 1/1s - 8 Wildlife images which are open to collect and 8 associated portraits which would be airdropped to the collectors.**
