The last bit of Autumn

These days the leaves are falling from the trees, and the colors are changing faster than lets say 3 weeks ago when the autumn colors were in full effect. It is now mid November and Winter is making its approach. I decided I needed a few more autumn photographs, with these deep tones and rich colors. So a little trip to my local forest later got me just that. A new handful of nice autumn shots.

A new approach to my Youtube videos

I have also shot some video during this little outing. In fact, I have decided to go and make this type of video a sort of a new approach to sharing more of my photography trips. No fancy videos with music, these wild travel/vlog styled transition, catchy music. None of that.

Just way more simple and back to basic. I will simply be showing the area I am out in, mostly by static clips, (still capturing movement) and occasionally showing me at work, photographing and setting up gear and hiking through the environment. I feel there are so many of these typical youtube videos out there. These flashy and poppy videos. Not saying these are bad. I often watch these myself, and truly enjoy them.

But I want create a more calmer and slower viewing experience in my videos. More room for ambiance and sounds, small details and overall “feel” is something I am trying to express and put into these new style of videos. Here’s my first attempt. Hope you like it. I will be putting out more soon.

There's always a photo - Forest Photography

No matter how bad the conditions might seem for landscape photography, or any type of photography actually. There's always something there to capture. As long as you are willing to spend some time out there, looking for it.

Forest Photography in Autumn

Autumn is here, and it is in full effect. Vibrant colors, changing weather and the forest basically changing its coat. Shedding off what is left of the summer. And preparing for the winter. During this time of the year the forest is one of the most interesting and beautiful places to be. Every tree is competing for the prize of the most colorful and the prettiest. The wind is practicing on its cool breeze again, and the rain is finding its way down to the earth’s soil a lot more compared to the summer months.

Exactly, time to head out, and spend some time in the forest. Capture all of it. Below are a bunch of photographs I took at the end of October.

All of them were shot with my Nikon D500, my Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 S and Nikon 17-55mm F2.8

Colorful Iceland

Cold, windy, wet and raw. That’s what comes to mind when you think of Iceland. And you are right. Iceland can be a very dark, moody and “hard” place. Personally I like that a lot.
This cold and dark vibe gives a nice and moody touch to your photography. Something I like to capture, and with me tons of other photographers too. Take a look at other work on my website and Instagram for that type of work…. But okay, the title of this blog is “Colourful Iceland” so there’s a bunch of vibrant and colourful photographs in this post. Iceland can be very very colourful and bright as well. In summer when there’s a lot of daylight, and no setting sun. But also in winter, with short days and the sun rising and setting throughout the entire day. You will get some crazy good conditions and amazing light if you are lucky. Last month I was on a photography workshop with Páll Jökull, and oh boy.. we got lucky!

Take a look at these images below, popping colors, nice light. All shots were taken on my previous workshop in Iceland.
Also, Páll and myself are offering a Summer photography workshop in Northern Iceland this summer.
