After 3 Years Of Tracking And Studying Red Foxes, He Has Finally Earned Their Trust To Photograph Them Up Close (26 Pics)

 In the beginning, he mostly took landscape pictures and photographed small birds and local wildlife. One early morning, when he was out shooting, he spotted a young red fox and got an unsharp photo of it, and he immediately felt like red foxes would be his main subject to photograph.

The road to finally capture a decent shot of a red fox came after 3 years and hundreds of hours of tracking and searching for red foxes in the Finnish wilderness and urban areas, until one day, he finally stumbled upon a nest he had been tracking. He studied the red foxes' behavior and slowly made his way to get up close and gain their trust. After his first session with the fox family, they seemed to get used to his presence and didn't really care about him that much.

He has now learned and mastered the behavior of red foxes and has photographed 4 different families during two springs. Here is the collection of his work—hope you enjoy it!
