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 🙂

Cruise ships are a very common sight here in northern Norway, during the summer. Often you can see several cruise liners in the horizon.

I really liked the clouds on this photo. Can’t be too bad being a tourist on that ship with a scenery like that.

Liked the contrast between the two ships on this picture. They are both filled with tourists, but I think I would prefer to be in the small boat.
Recent years there has been an increasing number of fishing tourists coming here from Germany, Finland and Sweden. Hope they do not catch all my fish 😉

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.

What beautiful and warm day here at the coast in northern Norway. I really like it when it’s 20C and slightly overcast. Anything warmer get to hot for my arctic body 🙂

Here I’m crawling between pebbles trying to make a good composition at ground level while not getting too wet from water seeping in from the ocean. When I take pictures I always think “How can I make this scene/subject more interesting” thus I often find myself in back-breaking positions.

What are your opinions on this photo?
