From flight simulator instructor to bird watching

Once in charge of Flight Simulators at Air India, Krishnan Kalpat’s fascination with flights extended beyond machines to the graceful journeys of birds. Not surprising, the unbridled joy he derives from birding and photography — capturing and freezing extraordinary moments of life, from nature and wildlife to architecture and still life — has earned him numerous accolades, including EFIAP distinction from the International Federation of Photographic Art and EFIP Award from the Federation of Indian Photography. “One of my most memorable moments was when a New York magazine published an article on my passion for photography and my work,” he says with pride. Another standout image — an architectural shot from New York — was selected from over 15,000 submissions for the ‘Cities in Black and White’ assignment, earning praise from National Geographic editors,” he said. For the record, the avid photographer documented about 500 bird species and sub-species across many countries, yet his passion for birding remains undiminished.
