Sergey Gorshkov really enjoys to photograph bears. He is one of the few photographers who can capture the detail of a brown bear’s life in its habitat. His specialty is working in close contact with his subject. He prefers to use a wide angle lens at close range - which is precisely the way he has managed to make his shots of bears unique. His favorite place for taking his photos is Kamchatka: “This krai (region) has special, magical powers. Kamchatka is the only place humans can feel a part of the wildlife. I always have a desire to visit it so I can experience this great feeling of freedom. I love Kamchatka very much, and will continue to love it". Watch Tolbachik volcano eruption video

It really seems a magical place. Amazing pictures - I think you need to be a little bit of a wizard to be able to get that close.
