Photo: View from Reinebringen, Lofoten islands, Norway I’ve written several post about mountain hikes and camping on the Lofoten islands, but they’re a bit scattered across my blog at the moment so I putting links to them all here in one place. Reinebringen hiking and info: CLICK HERE. Reinebringen trailhead is located near Reine, on […]
Photo: Snow covered Unstad beach, Lofoten Islands, Norway A hunch, as well as some minor understanding of Lofoten weather patterns (if such a thing can exist) led me out a of a never ending snow storm to the relative calm at Unstad. The light was nearly gone from an already short January day, but there […]
Photo: January sun shines through empty stockfish racks, Lofoten islands, Norway These two images are from the 6th of January, when the sun does not fully rise above the horizon on the Lofoten islands. Normally we’re used to sunrise in the east, sunset in the west. However, north of the arctic circle, this isn’t really […]
4th of July fireworks over Santa Barbara harbour. A bit on the weak side this year, so it goes…
Photo: Ågvatnet cloaked in winter snow. Jan 2010 In my last post I wrote about returning to Ågvatnet to try and make a ‘better’ version of a photo that I like very much, and was good for a 20 year having only ever taken a high school photo class, but by today’s standards is a […]
Photo: Boats at rest in Ågvatnet, Å I Lofoten, Norway. 2001 I know the above photo kind of sucks. I shot it 10 years ago within a couple hours of stepping foot on Lofoten for the first time. It’s taken with an old Nikon FE and a crappy 35-105mm lens on Fuji Provia 100, hand […]
Photo: Freshly plowed fields in autumn, Schmitsch/Smicz, Poland [UPDATE: April 2014 – I have written an updated post about with further information into the Hindera (and other) families – CLICK HERE ] Rarely do I visit a place that I have a personal connection with. The tiny village of Schmitsch/smicz is an exception. It’s the […]
Photo: Sunset from a flooded Tuolumne Meadows over Lembert Dome and Mount Dana, Yosemite national park. June 23, 2011 Over the weekend I was on a short camping trip with my dad and brother. While I’ve taken trips with each of them individually in the last years, it’s probably been 10+ years since the 3 […]
It’s kind of sad to think that after today the days are getting shorter again. Though here in Santa Barbara at 33˚ N latitude, we don’t really get long summer days anyhow. Nothing cool like walking along the beach at 10pm and watching the sun sink into the North Sea from and Ostfriesland island. Or […]
Photo: Winter view from Stamsundheia towards Steinetinden in distance. Mar 2009 Steinetinden (sometimes called Steinstind, Steinstinden) is a relatively small 509 meter high peak located between Stamsund and Steine on Vestvågøy in the Lofoten islands. By Lofoten standards its not anything spectacular. The main attraction of the peak is its close location to the Stamsund […]
