Spring is in the air

Bliss

Late March and Spring is finally on its way. 21 degrees the other day and I had the luxury of wearing shorts after work 🙂 Hope this won’t ruin our summer. Been shooting a bit lately but somehow I can’t seem to find the spark in the images I take. Guess I just have to keep shooting a bit more. Maybe it is time to change the scenery a bit.

Anyway, here are a couple of shots captured the last couple of weeks. Not my best shots, but not my worst either. At least these are the ones that I kept.


Long time no see…

It has been a while since I posted anything on this blog now. Been shooting some random pics the last couple of months but not been very good at sharing the goodies i captured.

I’ll start off with a nice time-lapse I shot this afternoon as I was out walking on Bygdøy, just outside Oslo.

Have a couple more pictures that I’ll upload the next couple of days and my camera is working on a (hopefully) nice night time-lapse right now.

Thanks to all of you who have stopped by the last couple of months. I’ll be better at uploading shots from now on 🙂

And then there is city life…

I’m back in Norway after four years in Hawaii. It is a big change but I hope it will be alright. I walked around in Oslo the other day and brought my camera. Different is the only thing I have to say, not bad, just different.


Bulls Pen MMA

I had an opportunity to visit the Bulls Pen MMA club the other day. I joined them for their practice (as a spectator of course) and got some nice shots of the guys getting their butts kicked.


Tinman Hawai’i 2011

So in good spirit I woke up early Saturday morning to watch and take some pictures of the contestants participating in the 2011 Tinman Triathlon in Hawai’i. I should have participated but ehh…. next year 🙂

 


Back in the days….

I looked through some of my old photos from the early 2000’s. Found some good ones from the time I was in the Army. I remember the day I shot these. It was the first day of the year the entire sun was visible. Such a beautiful day!

I shot this about four months before the two previous ones. A beautiful autumn day.


Sunset collection

I figured I could start a little sunset collection. I’ve captured a lot of great sunset shots and would like to share some with you every now and then. Enjoy! 🙂


Beautiful people

I have had the privilege of being around a lot of beautiful people. I find it extremely easy to take amazing pictures of the people i spend most of my time with and I have so much fun doing it.


4th of July….

This post should have been all about fireworks, but I didn’t take any pictures of that 🙂

I caught a couple of people walking home after the firework show was over tho


Fireworks…

Every friday night the Hawaii Hilton hotel has a show and it ends with a nice firework display.

This is how it looks


And then we went hiking…

With nothing better to do on a saturday, some friends and I went on a lovely 6 hour hike along one of the ridges in on Oahu.

It should have been a perfect opportunity to shoot some great pictures but the weather gods were not on our side. I still managed to get a few decent shots and the result… well you’ll be the judge of that 🙂


The White Jacket

 

 

I was asked by my friend Elton to shoot his band, The White Jacket, on friday the 17th of June. They were playing at Hard rock Cafe in Honolulu. It was an awesome concert and here are some of the pictures…


Clear night

I was driving home from practice one night and saw this beautiful full moon. I took a couple of pictures and this one came out great.


Perspective

It all depends on how you look at things….


Capture the moment….

Here are some random portraits I’ve taken during the last couple of weeks.

Enjoy! 🙂
