Here is a picture of phenomenon that I have not seen often. The moon was a thin crescent and Earth reflected light on the moon. It’s called planetshine and Earthshine when the earth lights the moon.
You can also see Venus below the Moon.

Lomo Boat

This is a typical fishing boat in Norway called “sjark”. The fishing done with these are much more friendly to the ocean than the fishing done by the big trawler boats.

Exposure: 0.005 sec (1/200)
Aperture: f/8
Focal Length: 14 mm

Added some lomo effect to it.

A Day of Waves and Sounds

Was a very windy and snowy day. Got a little beach trip inbetween the snow.
The waves was very impressive and the pictures don’t give them credit at all of their size and massive energy. You could really feel the forces of nature.
Tried to record the sound of the beach with my mp3 player. You can hear the small rocks when the water is going out and a seagull crying out.
Here is the mp3: www.thomaslaupstad.com/lyd/waves.mp3 (623KB)
Sorry about the wind on the mic.
