I live in Budapest, Hungary. During the day (and sometimes a little longer) I work as an art director at an advertising agency.
I picked up photography as a hobby during school years, and remained a casual snapper for years. Then I started diving, and my life changed in many ways. My passion for nature photography started underwater.
And after a few years, I started to follow the Darwinian path of evolution and ventured out of the water into the realm of land based nature photography...

carchard says:
"Csaba is a highly celebrated artist from Hungary. I am left completely in awe of his work with the Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 that he uses to capture some of the best avian photography pictures I have ever seen. The detail, focus, and colors are all rendered perfectly and his timing is superb. I absolutely cannot extol this man enough, and I must say that it was tough to only choose one picture for this feature. However, bird photography is not how Tökölyi got his start. No, Csaba was first drawn into photography when he began diving. As such, he has a staggering collection of underwater pictures too! Hopefully you can appreciate the difficulty of both of these types of photography that Csaba has clearly mastered."
