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 🙂

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 🙂

I was out walking in the nature and at midnight the sun disappeared behind some mountains. This mist started to form over the wetlands. It looked very ghostly and was a bit eerie, but at the same time very fascinating.

The tree is a small birch.

Have you ever experienced fog like this?

In this photo you can see some cows grazing under snowy mountains. A scene like this is very national romantic here in Norway and thus I wanted to create an antique look in this photo.

Used some filters in light room and photoshop for the effects.

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.
