Seljalandsfoss at sunset. I shot this in 2012, just a bit before Iceland exploded as a destination for photographers, and I didn't know about visiting it at sunset. Fantastic light and lucky timing!

A low-key, long-exposure, black-and-white photo of Gullfoss waterfall in southern Iceland. The soft, light water fills the centre of the image, and dark land, rocks, and a darkened sky frame it. Shot in 2012. Nikon D800 | 56mm | f11 | 3s | 6-stop ND filter

I'm not big on portraiture, but it was hard to go wrong with subjects like these. Members of Cirkus Snitz, from Lundakarnevalen in 2010.

Photos from the black beach at Vik, on the southern coast of Iceland, usually focus on the sea stacks at the headland. I went with something else.

The top of Wentworth Falls, in the Blue Mountains of Australia.

A photo looking up from near the base of Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains of NSW, Australia. The high shutter speed has frozen the water more as mist and it creates patterns against the rock face, which is in shadow. 1987 Canon AE-1 | 200mm | Kodak Kodachrome 64

Greenland for Greenlanders!
#greenland #icebergs #moon #claustralphotography #landscapephotography #monochrome #Ilulissat
Toned black and white photo of two icebergs off the coast of Greenland with a full moon above and the silhouette of a seagull on the top of one of the bergs. Shot in September 2012. This was shot from the boat heading to the Eqi Glacier. I saw how the moon would align with the bird just a few seconds before it happened and only just managed to time it right.

Munyang River snowgum and grasses at Gungarton Pass. Taken with a Nikonos IV during a cross-country ski trip in 1986. The tank-like underwater camera could survive even my crashes on skis.

I live close to a number of woodland reserves in the south of Sweden and they often feature in my photography. We don't get as much fog as I'd like but sometimes we get lucky.
#sweden #skåne #monochrome #woodland #claustralphotography
Toned black & white photograph of a woodland tree in fog. The focus is on the roots and lower trunk, with soft silhouettes of other trees in the background.
