Back in April I found this raven sitting on the roof our boathouse. Maybe it was Hugin or Munin?

Loved the way it the black raven created a contrast to the white snow-covered mountains and blue sky.

The mountains you see are located on the island Senja (the second largest island in Norway).

Check out my photo of a raven flying into “Gods eye”.

This photo of an old Norwegian fishing boat was taken on the first day I owned my fine Olympus E-500 camera. I have learned a lot about photography since then, but I still like this photo. I don’t think it’s too bad for a first try?

The same fishing boat and mountain can be seen in this photo, but in a warmer setting 🙂

Picture from a cottongrass (Eriophorum) marsh in northern Norway
Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera July 4th 2007. Click image for larger view.

I liked the light on this marsh so had to photograph the cottongrass (Eriophorum). The sunlight came seeping trough a small forest that was growing at the outskirts of the marsh. I think cottongrass is a beautiful plant with its fluffy appearance.

This photo was taken at 9PM in the evening so the sun was pretty low. 2 hours later the sun had gone behind the mountains and mist started to appear on the marshes. Check out this photo of the mist. One of my personal favorites 🙂

Found these duck tracks, or maybe it is tracks from a big seagull, while walking on the beach. Wonder where the bird was heading..
Maybe it was looking for a nice crab snack?

These red sunsets are so beautiful and I had to, once again, photograph the pretty scene. This picture was taken at 9:30 PM in the evening so the days are getting shorter and shorter here in northern Norway.

Take a look at this photo that I took back in May. That was the most amazing red sunset I have ever seen!
