Casaba Tokolyi is absolutely worth tracking on your Flickr feed. This Budapest, Hungary-based photographer manages to sneak up close and snap beautiful shots of all sorts of animals, from birds to bees and everything in between. He even dares to get close while the carnivores are feeding!
Tokolyi seems to like the close-up shot most when out taking pictures of wildlife and it's easy to see why. Being so close-up to the subject allows the viewer to see the personality and emotion in the animal's eyes. It also brings new levels of texture to the picture, as feathers and fur are drawn out so that you can see every last one. Gorgeous pieces of work, these could make stunning accents over any mantel.
