  For several years now, a pair of little ringed plovers has chosen a quiet stretch of beach—free of sunbeds and tourist crowds—for nesting. Thanks to their camouflaged plumage, people strolling by the sea remain unaware of their secretive neighbors.

  I have been passionate about wildlife photography for about eight years. Most of my photographs were taken in my native Belarus, but recently I moved and am now looking for new places to shoot in other countries. I enjoy both "stalking" photography and sitting in a hide, observing wildlife without interfering with their world with my presence.
