Taking pictures while laying in a buttercup meadow
Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera on June 9th, 2007. Click image for larger view.

Summer is here!! What is better than laying down in a meadow full of buttercups and just listen to the birds chirping, the insects buzzing and the occasional sound of my shutter taking a photo.

I’m planing on trekking the mountains you see in the background of this photo and I will of course bring my camera so stay tuned. Up there you get a fantastic view of many of the neighbor islands and the Atlantic ocean.

Last light on a winter day with Venus showing up
Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera on March 6th 2007. Click image for larger view.

This photo was shot on back in the beginning of March this year and I actually miss the winter a little bit.
I don’t miss the cold, but miss the light that is very special in winter. Now it’s daylight 24 hours a day and that is not so exciting photography wise.
Each season has good sides 🙂

You can see Venus shining over the boatshed and fjord making the scenery even nicer.

The summer is upon us so it is nice to look back at the colder season and enjoy the warmth!
Thought the sky over the seawall was beautiful so had to take a shot.

Got some other photos of the seawall with waves hitting it, here and here.

Photo of amazing red sunset at midnight in northern Norway
Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera on May 15th 2007. Click image for larger view.

This is one of the most amazing sights I have ever seen! I hope I have managed to recreate a small percentage of natures beauty in this shot.
The time was 11:30PM in the evening and whole sky and sea was red. When you see sights like this you take way too many shots. Afterwards it is really hard to decide on which picture to show.

Will be away for some time so the blog will be not be updated so frequently in the next couple of weeks, but will try to post some photos.
Please let me know if there is anything special you would like to see on my blog 🙂
