I found this old fishing boat when I was out photo walking on the beach. The sunsets are coming earlier now and this picture was taken at 9 PM. If you look closer at the old boat you can the red sunset light reflect on the white painting.

I used the word magnificent in the title to describe the mountain because that was the word that popped up in my head a couple of days ago when I was looking at the mountains. I see these mountains every day so it’s easy to forgot how magnificent they really are. Wish you all could see them in real life since a simple photo doesn’t do them justice.
Take a closer look at the upper right mountain. Can you see the snow spots?
That mountain is called “The Snow Peak”. Very describing name considering that there is still snow on the mountain this late in the summer.

Photo of red sunset clouds and a red boat house

I found the red/pink clouds to match the red boat house so I thought this scene would make a nice photo.
I’m starting to get a nice collection of photos with boat houses in them. Check them out here.

This photo was taken as the same time period as this sunset picture.

In this photo you see the family boathouse again (check this photo to see it with the fjord as a background). Loved the way the blue sky, clouds and the mountain created a nice background to the boatshed.

Photo from the beach at midnight in northern Norway

I love walking the beach at midnight when it is summer. Everything is calm and all you can hear is the sound of the nature; sea gulls crying, waves rolling the beach and the sound of your feet walking the sand. Walks on the beach are soothing for my mind, body and spirit. I recommend it!

This photo was taken with my new sweet wide angle lens. So far this lens is threating me very good 🙂

Photo of a boatshed against a blue summer sky with some beautiful clouds

boatshed against a blue summer sky with some beautiful clouds

I really liked the clouds on the blue sky today. It’s the way I remember the summer days in Northern Norway from when I was a kid. Thankfully some things never change!

Our family own the boatshed and it have been a good helper protecting our boat from winter storms. I love the look of the stone roof.

This is the first photo on this site with my new wide angle lens Olympus ZUIKO DIGITAL 11-22mm F2.8-3.5 so look forward to more wide angle shots 🙂
