  • It is time to do some wildlife photography in Finland, and I have traveled to Kuhmo near the Russian border to photograph the wild wolves and bears, and to be able to see these fascinating animals in their natural environment. Beside photographing it is my goal to vlog from this trip to share my fascination of these beautiful mammals. These animals are extremely shy and to get close to them, I am going to a location, where they have set up photo hides and have put out meat for the bears for many years.

    Thanks for all the awesome comments - I WILL answer a lot of you very soon.
    I am in Crete right now and when not photographing, I am working on part 3 which will be only 3 minutes and very very different. It is just something I really feel for, and I am excited to see what you think about it...
    See you out there...

    I have never heard the call of the wolves in the wild but would love to do so one day. But, here in Namibia, the call of the Black-backed Jackal always sends thrills down my spine and makes me feel connected to my roots, and in touch with nature.

    Wow!! I know the feeling of the wolves howling, I used to work at a camp in central Ontario, Canada. I was their Nature Guy, one of the other team members and I went out snow shoeing on a full moon night to try and call in owls, as I was hooting for the owls I had a wolf call back. First one wolf, then others joined in all around us, it was awesome, one of those moments you just don't forget. Really want to thankyou for your posts Morten, one of your other subscribers said it well , you are humble and yet passionate with your photography, which encourages others to get out and experience it.

Anyone who thinks that wildlife photography is easy simply needs to watch your videos and see how much preparation, travel, set-up sweat and time goes into the art. Your coice of music reflects the peacefullness of the adventure. The first time that I heard wild wolves my brother and I were camping in northern Ontario, in Canada, sitting around a camp fire looking up at the milky way, when suddenly in the distance........oooooooooowwwwwwwrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
