It's been quite some time since my last post. The main reason is the fact that there's hardly been any time for photography or any kind of recreational activities this spring and summer. Still, I've managed to get my hands on a new camera. I am still learning... The new camera has a wide range of possibilities, and I've realized that I'm only beginning to understand photography... Not only the practical use of the camera as a tool, which is a task in itself. The real challenge is to see or anticipate and then capture the moments at the right time, and merge that little feat with technical skill that will produce a quality photo.

Finding interesting angles and captivating motives demand some concentration and awareness, but sometimes they are in abundance. My two summer hikes this year, to Aurlandsdalen and Jotunheimen respectively, provided many opportunities. So many in fact, and in such an overwhelming way, that it was allmost impossible to decide on how to frame the photo! There was just too much spectacularity to put in it!

These hikes has been a welcome breakaway from an intensely hectic year. Now, winter awaits... And with that, hopefully more escapes...
