  • I was lost in Iceland every time we were shooting by the sea, but I think it encouraged rather than disheartened me to keep at it. So today I drove to Hornslandet, which was a good choice in that it’s easier to deal with the monotones with the graphic forms that the rocks and cliffs provide,…

  • After the brief display of light yesterday, we are now back to the dull and grey weather that we’ve learned to know and (not) love in November. Although having said that, it’s not too bad for monochrome (as if there was any colour left in this world anyway). I should work more with patterns and…

  • Is it… could it be… maybe it is… light?

  • One nice thing about this 365 project is that it gives me a reminder of what the weather was like through the year. So take this November for example, I can check my pictures and say that there has been two days so far with any sunshine. Two. And I was really surprised to see…

  • The grey weather continues. Clouds are hanging low like a lid over the landscape.

  • No snow in sight, and the vegetation is looking sadder by the day.

  • Switched to another new lens, Sigma 70-200/2.8 OS. I had a particular subject in mind today, but when I got close to it, I saw some geese. Since I now had 200mm (x1.6) at my disposal, I took out the camera to see if I could make anything out of the geese but then I noticed these mallards…
