My Wildlife Story

My Wildlife Story Hi there! I'm Aleksey Sharypin, a wildlife photographer from Latvia. www.mywildlifestory.eu

instagram.com/aleksey_sharypin Hello and welcome!

And this is My Wildlife Story! 😉

All my animal and birds photos/videos are taken in real wildlife guided by high ethics rules. My name is Aleks and I have been passionate about wildlife photography for almost 5 years. My wife has pulled me into this fascinating “mess” and now she does not know how to get me out of it, besides, I am stronger 💪🏼 than her and I do resist. 😁

We are based in Latvia,

— a small and still green country with rich flora and fauna in the North of Eastern Europe. As a person who loves nature and learned how to use a professional camera, I always plan my travel routes with a touch of “wild nature”. All what you will see here — is what I saw through the viewfinder of my camera while travelling around Latvia and Europe. Everything what you will read here — is my subjective opinion, which I try to back up with scientific literature and my own observations. So, if you love nature and wildlife, — I hope you will enjoy it through my photos and videos! 😉


As a wildlife photographer you should always keep the most important thing in mind — Ethics!

Time - is fundamental...
Or how I flew past that very moment of perfect composition, and, returning, I realized that even a minute is a lot.

"Daddy's Food Delivery"
When you love and respect wildlife, it takes a step closer to you. And in a short time, they start live right next to you.

Well, summer is just around the corner. Those who occasionally see my posts and time to time checking my page have probably noticed that I post the fewest photos in the summer. That's right, summer is my quiet time. During this time, all my wild "models" are busy with family matters and their children. However, I decided to liven up this summer period with some non-standard for me content, mainley landscapes and little birds.
I know you'll like it! 😉

"My pack" - 30 seconds of the real and amazing wildlife. The place, where wildlife can feel safe and undisturbed. Unfortunately, such places are becoming a real rarity.

"When the night has come"... The wolf is one of my favorite predators. I'd say it's my spiritual animal, along with the golden eagle. 😇
I can say for sure, that I have the largest wolf monitoring system in Kurzeme. And every time these "spirits of the wild" are captured by my trail cams, I'm happy like a kid in a Disneyland.

"Touchdown"
It's truly exiting to watch a golden eagle in flight, and the landing is always is a fascinating act.
Interesting, but some "old sofa experts" putt in a doubt that a golden eagle can reach speeds of up to 320 km/h in a dive. Well, this is a scientifically proven fact, and yes, the golden eagle is the fastest eagle in the world.
