Igor Shpilenok: I have two homes: one in Bryansk province of Russia and another in Kamchatka. Sometimes I live somewhere in between. Half of my life I spend in the field due to the nature of my work.

In this blog I will tell you about the everyday life of a photographer-naturalist. I will be sharing my thoughts about photography, nature conservation efforts and life. And of course, I will be publishing many photos here, both recent and archival.

More about me on my website: www.shpilenok.com
