Fog

The fog makes the images softer and more simple. I went out to search for an area where I hoped to capture some pictures when the sun broke through the thick fog from a viewpoint offering a view down towards the Glomma River south of Mysen. That never happened, but I took the opportunity to capture a few foggy frames in the flat, diffused light.

Shapes and colours

With my camera, I wandered out to see if any images presented themselves and discovered shapes and colours suspended for a short time before vanishing the following day.

Sun Breaking Through, Snow Retreating

After a long spell of grey skies and a colourless landscape, the sun managed to break through a thick cloud cover and bathe the fields in a warm, golden glow with deep shadows. The vast open plains around Nannestad came alive. I paused on my drive to work to frame this beautiful scene.

Between Monday and Friday — A Workweek

Early March: a typical week when winter slowly loses its grip and spring struggles to break through. Fog hangs in the air, and bright days bring beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The snow is melting, surrendering the secrets it once hid beneath a pure white blanket—now wet and stained.

February 2026

February was quiet — aside from a short trip to Røros, it was mostly grey and low on motivation. I spent time trying to photograph the grey, including experiments with ICM that didn’t always work out. A few moments of light did appear; these are the images I made at home and while traveling to and from work.

Early morning birds

I forgot my phone in the car and went back to get it — camera in hand, of course. In the early morning light I managed to capture a few shots of birds in flight, their silhouettes against the colourful sky.

Airplanes in the evening

I spent a night near Oslo Airport and hiked to a nearby viewpoint to photograph planes landing and taking off in the late evening light. I used a long shutter speed to capture the motion of the aircraft. These are the images I’m most pleased with.

After work

I made a few shots on my way to the car the other day. Opportunities are sparse, so I try to use every moment I can to capture something.

Winter days in Røros

I spent a couple of days in Røros to try to capture some of the essence of the town during the cold winter (−15 to −30 degrees Celsius). Røros is an old wooden town and a UNESCO World Heritage site, and to me there is no place that represents winter better. In spite of the freezing temperatures, the town has a warm, soft glow to it.

Doors and windows — I decided long ago I wouldn't bother photographing doors and windows, yet here I am, drawn to the spectacular doors and frosty windows in Røros..

On my way

I visited Røros in early February. The trip there and back offered photographic opportunities — frosty trees and interesting light — which I tried to make the most of.
