This work is outstanding, Henrik.
I know how dangerous it can be to capture this animals even from distance.
It must have been very thrilling to do this image. I like this work very very much. Niels is right, You are a great wildlife photographer.
Best wishes, Marei
Henrik Just  Thank you so much for your very nice comment, Marei !
It really means a lot to me !

And your right about the potential danger shooting these animals.
It´s the adrenalin-kick of the year to "hunt" the big animals out in the Norwegian mountains.

I treat the animals with respect, and I´m not afraid / scared when I´m close to them, sometimes much closer than here.
But after the shoot, when I´ve withdrawn 300 - 400 meters I can feel on my respiration, that it was really exciting - my heart is pumping rapidly ;-))

Clear message: Don't come any closer... I've heard a presentation by a photographers that came to close... Was charged at...
Henrik Just  Your right, Frédéric !
Those "cows" has to be "handled" with much respect !

I came really close to a big bull that was down in a hole, sleeping this year.
It suddenly stood up, just 15 - 20 meters from me, and I thought: "oh god, what now ..... will it charge ?", but fortunately it didn`t ;-))
