Small birds, great personalities

Puffins have always been one of my favorite animals to photograph. Not only are they adorable as h*ll, they are also incredibly smart and interesting. I keep on getting amazed about every new thing I learn about them.
Such a small bird, but what great personalities if you observe them closely and what a resilience and intelligence these small creatures have. Wonderfull!

42 year old nature photographer who finds peace and comfort in the silence and simplicity nature brings.
Having found all that in Sweden many years ago, I keep on going back there. The country where nature can still be wild and untamed, where people need to live WITH nature instead of fighting against it.
Accepting all the elements.
The sometimes harsh conditions, but also the wonderful soft moments like mornings when the landscapes are covered in a blanket of fog.
Moments like that are like poetry to me. Nature's paintings. Changing every minute. Sometimes even every second. Nature's works of art. I'm just a spectator. How lucky am I!
It gives me peace of mind and makes me pause my life. Something that is so very needed in our every day life.
I can only hope that my work shows this to the ones looking at it. Hoping it brings them some peace, silence and tranquility.
A moment to pause.
Some softness to their world.
And above all reconnection with nature.
