Dmitry Kokh says:

 

Sataya Reef (or: Dolphins home) in the Red Sea – is one of the best places in the world to swim with wild dolphins. I spent all day with them in the water, and that was for sure one of the best days in my life. You can create thousands of frames at the time of a great encounter. You can shoot an animal from one side, on the other side, on each side. Sometimes you’re so thrilled and hold your finger on a trigger while your camera bursts like a machine gun that makes 20 frames per second. But you always feel that exact moment when you make a very special shot, the one you dreamed of. When everything comes together: the animal’s mood, the light, the color, the depth and all the rest. And a bit of nature’s magic maybe. So, this is the one!

About Dmitry Kokh

About Dmitry Kokh

Russia

I’m Dmitry a passionate wildlife and underwater photographer based in Moscow (Russia).
I try to capture ‘decisive moments’ in nature and show wildlife contextually in its environment. I enjoy the process of trying to create memorable and beautiful images and I hope that they will inspire people in some way to care about and conserve the natural world. I travel in the farthest places and dive into the deepest seas to find things that inspire me, to find nature’s emotions, which I would love to share with people.
