Gjemnessundet Bridge – Seascape in black and white

This is Gjemnessundet Bridge, a few miles south of Kristiansund. On the first day in 2013 the weather was calm and quiet. The photo was captured  after sunset in the hour between daylight and darkness. Happy new year!

Barren awaiting – seascape from Kristiansund

On one of the last days of October after sunset I found this scene. Where the waves pound the bedrock all year nothing grows. I guess this scene looked the same hundred years ago, and will look the same hundred years from now.

Seascape – December ebb

 The sun is low on the horizon in December, and the days are short. Just 5 hours of daylight this time of the year. The light is golden if the sky is clear, almost like a sunset the entire day. This seascape is taken at low tide on a calm and cold day in December. The red colors in the foreground makes a nice contrast to the deep blue colors in the ocean and in the sky.

Late winter landscapes

It’s time to rest for the threes that didn’t survive the winter storms.

Winter Landscape Photography

It’s still winter in Norway, but this winter has been mild on the west coast. Many small streams are not frozen, giving fine photo opportunities for winter landscape photos.

Landscape Photographers – What is nature and landscape art photos?

What is landscape and nature art photos? What is the difference between a photo and an art  photo? It’s hard to answer those questions because people have very different taste and opinions about art,  and what is and isn’t art. My answer is: If you like a photo, if it touches some emotion in you, if you would like to hang it on a wall in your home, then it is art.
I don’t know which of my landscape photos people will like or not like when I create them. But I do know that people see things in my photos that I never thought of when I was out with my camera. I think that great landscape photographers  have found a way to capture the beauty of the nature with a camera and a way to present that beauty to others. If a landscape photo is  art photo depends a lot of the photographers skills and affection for the nature.

Norway – the landscape photographers dream?

 

The winter is long and the days are short, but we live for the memory- and promise of spring again. This landscape photo was captured April 1. – 2007. The location is Våtedalen (The Wet Valley) in Sunnfjord. In the winter time avalanches can strike across the valley and the main road. A few years ago a bus was blown off the road by the pressure wave generated by an avalanche.
