Blackbuck, antelopes indigenous to the plains of India, are striking creatures. Their ridged and spiralling horns set them apart, along with the highly contrasting shades of the male's coat. I had the great pleasure of being invited to observe a herd of them at Watatunga Sanctuary, Norfolk. Wily and quick, they are extremely camera shy, but it was a wonderful experience seeing them in the flesh and one that offered a great deal of inspiration for the future.
