Russian photographer Sergey Kokinskiy seems to get quite a reaction from the wildlife he shoots. Sergey began photography as a hobby after travelling widely. He soon began to notice a theme in the images he captured. “Many of the subjects of my photos could have recognisable human emotions transferred onto them: love, envy, hatred, greed, malice, cunning, compassion, and more,” he says.
