These guys will soon be running around on the beach. Common ringed plover. Or Sandlo in Norwegian.

Have you ever been in Florence, Italy? The cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore has this cool effect when the sun rises it shines on one side of the building while other sides are still in shadow. And there is a small tower that makes a gap where you get this view.

This is not a multi exposure or a photoshop image. When the guillemot comes in from the ocean they come in large groups an all want to land on the few possible landing sites on the cliffs. Yes they do collide sometimes.

4 from Italy

You do not have to visit Italy in the summer. The winter is also quite cool. Rain, fog and murmuring starlings are options you might experience if you are lucky.

'Souls Tied'

On 02/07/22 , I received a phone call from Nigel Danson who informed me that my image 'Souls Tied' was the overall winner in World Landscape Photographer 2022.

A classic image of mine, and one that is deeply personal.

Alt text for the story behind this deeply personal image.

On the other side of the fence.

This is from a series I have going called memories. As a kid living in the countryside in Norway in the 70s/80s we played outside and did some «exploring». Trying to find exiting stuff … and a small little wood in a field like this? It was like a treasure island.

This is a tufted duck. Or toppand as we say in Norway. It is a misty morning quite high in the mountains of Norway. It is June, but the snow is till present not too far from this lake.

So for abount a month now it has been snowing and raining on and off. I live by the coastline. Which makes it pretty wet, but it is also quite mild during the winter. That is why it takes a while for the snow to build up in the start of the winter. Sun rises 09:41 and sets 14:37 today.

Dog in fog
I visited Venice, Italy in January this year. One of the days the fog lay upon the city and the landscape. There is a park in Venice and a dog was playing around with a ball amongst the trees. #photography #blackandwhitephotography

So I wanted a moody photo with some details in the night sky. My girlfriend accepted to be my model on a late May night in Norway. This is taken about midnight - about as dark as it gets in late spring. #photography #blackandwhitephotography
