About
Gururaj Moorching was a successful Bangalore-based business man. However, his interest in wildlife was sparked after a trip to Kaziranga. On another trip to the Greater Rann of Kutch he came across two books titled ‘Birding on Borrowed time’ and ‘Lifelist’. Since he was going through a rough patch in his health at that time, these books gave him a deeper meaning to life and to bird photography. Ever since, Gururaj has been an avid bird photographer and has travelled across India to experience the diversity of the country. He has been out capturing bird photographs on nearly every single day.
He successfully completed his “Photographic Big Year” in 2018. His work has been published in many magazines across the world.
