Last night I was out on the beach late at night taking pictures of the sunset. A tern couple landed on this old rowboat so had to take a picture of it against the beautiful sunset.

The sun is not up 24/7 anymore (though it’s still light 24/7) so there will be some incredible sunsets in the months to come. Hope my readers doesn’t get tired of sunset pictures 🙂

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.

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 🙂

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 🙂

Went for a walk a up in the mountains and this is the view I got when I turned around. It was very steep so had a hard time standing and photographing.
The fjord is called “VÃ¥gsfjorden”. The mountain is called “Drangen” and is 1022 meters above the fjord.
