An overcast day makes for great light for bird photography. I set out to photograph warblers near my home in the Cairngorms and came back with some good photos and some surprising wildlife encounters.

I'm originally from Norway, but I have lived in Scotland since I studied wildlife biology a long time ago. In Scotland, I've worked as an ecologist and occasionally still do some freelance ornithology work. I have a passion for the natural world and I believe it's our duty to keep as much wildlife and ecosystems alive for ourselves, for future generations and for nature's own sake.

Combining my passion for wildlife with an obsession for photography has been my ultimate pursuit for the last couple of years and I'm enjoying the journey more every day.
