My name is Nickolay Tilcheff.
I am an animator and wildlife photography is something that I enjoy in my spare time.
: : the photos
For about three years, 2007 - 2009, many of my better photos used to get published on this bloG. Due to frequent abuse of the images and a few other reasons I have decided to take a long (or indefinite) break from blogging.
: : the models
All images published here are of wild-living animals photo-graphed undisturbed in their natural environment.
: : the gear
I use Canon equipment.
: : top 20
If this is your first visit to PoAA, make sure you check out the 'gallery' of my favorite images.

All beautiful but the Heron is especially appealing! btw did you realize you have 3 birds and 3 very different eye colors? Nice!
ReplyDeleteHi Nickolay!
ReplyDeleteI guess you are settled in to your new home. Great photos, like Mick said, the eyes are amazing to see so clearly.
Wonderful images, Nickolay. Love the Heron scratching.
ReplyDeleteWell done.
Denis
Hi Mick,
ReplyDeleteGreat observation!
Mentioning the different colors of the eyes gives me an idea to try and find more photos with various eye colors in the old published photos and make a dedicated post. It should be fun!
Cheers!
Hi Dave, it's much warmer here during this season, but I must say I still miss Tasmania. It's been raining most of the time during past 2-3 weeks, so I didn't get many chances for exploring the neighborhood either. Looking forward to that!
ReplyDeleteBest regards!
Hi Denis,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the praise :)
I, too, thought that the heron was funny and was hoping to even get a crop of the head, but I wasn't close enough when I took this photo.
Btw the long breeding feathers on the back, typical for herons and egrets, are visible in this image.
Cheers!
G'day Nickolay,
ReplyDeleteGreat work. Loved 'em all. You know you have a nice sharp bird shot when the eyes are shining.
Regards,
Gouldiae
G'day Gouldiae!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Thank you!
