Mountain Hares | Wildlife Photography. I set off for the Scottish Highlands to do some wildlife photography, my target species was the mountain hare whose fur turns white in winter. Unfortunately, I missed the snow during my visit, but what an amazing experience to get close to this animal in its habitat.

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.
