  • Raindrops

    Did I mention that it’s been raining rather a lot here recently? Yesterday was no exception. The river rose again and the fishing has been excellent, but I must say that I’m longing for a bit of sunshine.  

  • Sailing into the sunset

    I was lucky enough to be asked to take some pictures for the Canon partner kick off yesterday. The partners were crewing these 37 foot sailing boats and the racing was hard. I got the best deal though. I got to ride on a dinghy that did 50 knots. [twitter style=”horizontal” float=”left”] [fbshare type=”button”] [google_plusone…

    Autumn is definitely upon us. The days are getting shorter (I hate it) and the mornings are getting colder. With that comes the dew and mist that only seem to be really good at this time of year.  

  • Weird weather

    Weird weather

    Rainbow, sun, rain, dark clouds, thunder. We had it all in the space of 1/2 hour today. Made for some cool photos though:)

    It’s been raining here the last few days, and being outside isn’t fun. But hey, rain can leave drops on leaves right?  

  • Gutten med seljefløyten

    Gutten med seljefløyten

    I’ll be the first to admit that this isn’t the best or most outstanding picture I’ve taken, but the picture has historical significance. The painter Christian Skredsvig painted one of the most famous paintings in Norway, “Gutten med Seljefløyten” here. The stamp below shows the original.          

  • Spot

    We were out for a walk in the woods today and came across a field of nettles where there were loads of butterflies. I’ll be the first to admit that the peacock butterfly isn’t the rarest, but it’s pretty. This weeks photofriday challenge (www.photofriday.com) is Spot.  

  • Ropes and wood

    Ropes and wood

    The tall ships races in Stavanger last weekend gave ample opportunities to take photos of rope and wood. Together with the smell of tar and sea it was a great experience.

    This weeks Photofriday challenge (www.photofriday.com) is Enormous. We were at the beach yesterday and in the face of a stiff northerly breeze we had a fantastic time. Or at least I did. The others complained about the wind.    

  • Tall ships at sunset

    Tall ships at sunset

    The 2011 Tall ships races are in town (www.tallships.org) and the sun finally came out today. I saw the sunset and had to break off some top-level Midsomer murders watching to go and take pictures.

  • Death is nothing at all

    Death is nothing at all

    Death is nothing at all, I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I, and you are you; whatever we were to each other, that, we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used, put no difference in your tone,…
