I went to Finland in April to photograph wolves and owls. Halfway through the trip, after spending hours waiting in hides for wolves to show up, we decided to focus on owls. Jari, our guide, took us to an area where a Great Grey Owl is sometimes fed by a local photographer (no live baits were used). Although not an ideal situation, this was the only way to get the photo I dreamt of; a Great Grey flying straight at me.
