Ghost Blogging Platform
Ghost Blogging Platform I saw a few concepts of Ghost somewhere on the web quite a while ago and seeing it becoming reality is actually quite exciting. As backing the project doesn't seem to be necess... more
A Belated Postcard from Vienna
Not often have I take the liberty to show images here on the blog that are something different other than the usual landscapes. Every now and then though I take images during a trip which I find so in... more
A Text-Editor Habit
After my last confession it is time for another one. I have a problem. I have developed a habit: text-editors. It turns out that I (amongst other things) collect them, both on iOS and OS X. To... more
When "distraction-free" doesn't equal "free of distractions"
Over the past few years, the act of writing has become somewhat of a regular task for me. In fact I often find myself writing not with the purpose of writing something for either of my blogs, or to wr... more
A Mono-spaced confession
Found this on blog which I recently discovered and felt kind of caught. … Your nerd lives in a monospaced typeface world. Whereas everyone else is traipsing around picking dazzling fonts to describe t... more
A Very Much Belated Anniversary Post
So, there you go. I missed it. For the first time in now four years I missed the anniversary of this little blog of mine. It passed by un-noticed, that is until now of course, but without noticing the... more
An Evening At The Harbour
It appeared what to become a perfect sunset when I left home - clouds and sun just right for taking out the Big Stopper which I finally wanted to work with. I planned to visit a beautiful and romantic... more
The Red Rocks
Waiting for the right conditions turned out the right thing to do.{.intro} This evening's shooting started successfully a little while ago at a lighthouse a few kilometres to the north along this road... more
Bay #1: Re-imagined
The sun just above the horizon as we're driving along the coast and stopping ever so often to take a fresh image. The light and the colours in the sky were gorgeous all the through the night, and this... more
On A Little Island - Winter
The forecast for today didn't look too good in fact and I'm up for a couple of hours already. The sun rises late at this time of the year and every time I watch out of the window it's dark and appears... more
Fuzzy Pelican
Another one from a fun trip to a local bird zoo… Already in my previous image from this trip I wrote a little about my attempts to take a decent image of these magnificent animals. Surely the challeng... more
Troms Rocks
We’re scouting for locations and exploring the island here in the north of Norway. Stunning views everywhere we go. It’s already in the evening but it’s summer here and the sun is still high up in the... more
Lofoten Summer
It has been a long day at this moment already, and we’re still searching for the location we have noticed in the distance. Still without success, and as it will turn out, we will never find “the spot”... more
Dedication
And now it’s almost here.. the year 2011. Traditionally at this time resolutions are made and most likely in many cases not kept. I gave up making those. Doesn’t work out anyway. more
Storvatnet Reflection #1
Lofoten Islands, Norway, June 2010 The outing for tonight is almost over and we are just on our way back to the beach where we planned to stay to stay the night. The horrific conditions of the previou... more
The Second Frost
It had been the third day with gorgeous light in a row, something that I believe to be happening rather rarely during this time of year. Two days ago, I used the chance to visit this small beach, name... more
The First Frost
“The first frost always feels the worse” were the words our local postman said to me in the elevator the other day. Actually he’s right. It had been very cold during the last weeks and finally the sea... more
I Like To Read...
I like to read… offline (these funny big and heavy things which have way more than 600 words and made of paper) and online. But in fact most of my reading is taking place in my web browser on the desk... more
Australian Pelican
Photography is all about opportunities, and while I usually prefer to photograph landscapes sometimes it’s just fun to do something totally different at times and confront myself with new challenges.... more
Hailuoto Revisited - November 2010
Hailuoto, Finland, November 2010 It’s early November now, about one and half month’s away from the darkest day of the year, and it becomes increasingly difficult to find the time to do landscape photo... more
