Looking forward to autumn
Peak autumn is just around the corner. The high-season for every landscape-photographer! I kicked off this season with a few outings in my nearby woodlands, Bymarka in Trondheim. While nights are chilly, days are still sunny and warm. Perfect conditions for making some wonderful morning fog. This particular morning in the beginning of September I…

Photographing the Algarve coastline
Algarve in Portugal arguably has one of the most beautiful and photogenic coastlines in the world. The dramatic warm-colored cliffs, in all different shapes and forms, give unlimited possibilities for seascape-photography. Algarve has been on my bucket-list for quite a few years, and was this years destination for our family’s summer-vacation. We chose to stay…

A crisp December morning
Weather has been cold and clear here for the last 3-4 weeks. Fortunately, we got a modest dusting of snow early on, giving some light to the landscape. I have been out photographing a lot in this period. Sunrise is around 0930 am and sunset at 0230 pm. Between that, we have more or less…

Frozen logs, sunrise
I visited this place three consecutive days earlier this november. The first morning, I fond the scene and started to plan the compositon. The second day, I was happy with the composition, but I was a tad too late and the light was too harsh. The third day I came there well ahead of sunrise…

Finale!
Everyone that has followed my work for a while (hi mom!) probably know that I have a soft spot for photographing trees and woodlands. Of course, autumn is high-season. Every autumn I find myself browsing my favorite photography book, Intimations of Paradise by Christopher Burkett. His forest-work is wonderful and deeply inspiring. The quality of…

Rondane, Norway. Annual September trip, 2023
Every year, for the last ten years, I have visited Rondane National Park for fall colors. Foliage usually peaks around september 15-20th, but there’s a slight variation from year to year, and if you’re unlucky and get an early autumn storm, everything might be gone before peak colors are reached. Mid-september may sound early for…

Spring, woodlands and very (very!) early mornings
It’s a pleasure being out in the woods this time of year. After the long, dark winter and (often) grey and dull early spring, the forests are now full of life. Birds tweeting, flowers blooming and the wonderful vibrant spring-foliage. My favorite time of day out there is around sunrise. The soft pre-sunrise light has…

Transitions
A collection of images captured over the timespan of about one hour last weekend. A photography buddy and I headed out into the local “wilderness” last weekend to capture a fresh dusting of snow on the spruces. We noticed that higher elevations were shrouded in fog, and headed up there. We found a nice area…

Mosquitoland
I don’t know if you have ever been to North-Norway, or even are planning a trip there. But in case you are, you should know this: Visiting during the summer months involves a very high risk of being in constant war with the fierce creatures somewhat erroneously called mosquitoes. We are not talking about the…

Behind the scenes – Bavaria
I had planned an autumn-trip to Bavaria and the German Alps since early summer. Besides the magnificent mountains in the area, I also wanted to capture some archetypical countryside and cultural landscapes. I could probably just as well have gone to Austria, Switzerland or the Italian Alps, but Munich turned out to be easiest to…
