Project Plan
[edit]Activities
[edit]I am a professional wildlife photographer & Wikimedian from Hyderabad, India. I aim to use innovation and technology to achieve fresh perspectives in my work & through World Photography Lovers. I am passionate about wildlife conservation. Through my work, I Have added more than 300 images on Wikimedia Commons, my aim is to upload more than 1000+ High-resolution photos of different species of flora and fauna on Commons and use them on Wikipedia articles. Which can be helpful for future wildlife photographers & researchers to get relevant information about the species.
Mostly which I have observed day by day people are using Wikipedia to get such information about species. My work will be to document the flora and fauna of Eastern Ghats, bearing such geographical importance and is home to 100s of rare species, it is one of the less documented areas on Commons.
Participate in community activities like meetups and conferences with both Odia and Telugu community, teach them how to click good images and ask them to use the images to create or improve articles in their local Wikipedia.

Resources
[edit]What resources do you have? Include information on who is organizing the project, what they will do, and if you will receive support from anywhere else (in-kind donations or additional funding).
- I have my own camera, laptop, and photo editing software and the Internet to upload the images on Commons
- I will arrange my own travel to document these places.
What resources do you need? For your funding request, list bullet points for each expense and include a total amount.
- A Nikon telephoto lens of 500-600mm :I need to be in a safe distance away from the intended target. A telephoto lens that allows me to shoot up to 500mm or 600mm and a zoom range is a good lens. Clicking photos during an expedition is always different than clicking photos at festivals or social events. You may have the best digital camera for wildlife photography, but you definitely need some solid equipment to do justice to your passion for wildlife photography.
