It was rather stormy that evening, and at one point we started to wonder whether the tent would stand the wind. Suffice to say, it did. Once everything was set up, I walked the 50 meters to the beach... more
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
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
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
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
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

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
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
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
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 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

Somehow landscape photography is always full of surprises. Every now and then something unexpected happens. Most of the time it's just the weather turning bad just an hour before the best light after... more
It's just around midsummer and we're just coming from the first site of the evening, a nice rocky beach in the north of the Lofoten Islands. Though nice, the conditions were far from perfect so we dec... more
