NORWEGIAN LANDSCAPE AND NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY

My interest in photography started out in 1999, when I bought my first SLR camera before at trip to Africa. My interest for, and hopefully knowledge about, photography has increased every month and year since. When I started I had absolutely no knowledge about photography. Since then I have now reached a level where others find my work interesting and I occasionally sell a few images and take on assignments.

The small  place where I live is called Alversund. It is about 25 km to the north west from the city of Bergen. This is in the borderland between the high mountains of the deep fjords and the open coast area with thousands of small and large islands.

I finished my training to become a maritime pilot in September 2004. Everything went well and I like the challenge. In addition this kind of work gives plenty of photo opportunities. I also work a few weeks every year at the maritime control centre at Kvitsoy. See gallery for images from this small island north of Stavanger.

My new house was finished in April 2005. My family consists of a very hard-headed and sharp daughter (born 10.04.2001) and a lively and impatient son (born 07.02.2003) and not to forget, our big black cat, Sherakan. Latest addition is a small kitten, called Pjusken.

As you probably already have noticed I am not a web designer and I am not planning to be one. My interest is photography and I want to use time to create photos, not to sit in front of a computer, at least not more than absolutely necessary.

I am also a member of the local photo club, Nordhordland Fotoklubb and BioFoto.
