This picture is from down town Oslo. The bridge is called Nordenga bru, which connects an old part of down town Oslo, with the new area called Bjørvika. This is the area the new opera house is.

Friendly models

The Nordic World Championships in Holmenkollen Oslo Norway 2011 are over. I`ve been lucky to be a apart of this event up close, taking pictures for skiforeningen.no. It has been a great event, and a good experience for me as a photographer. These are my pick outs:

Oslo´s pride and joy, Holmekollen ski jumping hill is being rebuild for the 2011 Nordic Ski World Championship. Last week I was up there with NXC for a guided tour, and I took some pictures

These two images were taken when I was out strolling with my camera a week a go. At one minute I see this guy laying on entrance to Bislett Stadium, dead drunk or drugged. 10 minutes after I see a newly wedded couple taking pictures and having a great time outside United bakeries at Majorstua.

Fashion photography

My first fashion photography shoot. The model, Mai-Linn is a new model for Team Models here i Oslo and needed new photos to her portfolio. I used 2 strobes to create the white background and the “wrapping” around Mai-Linns face and neck, one strobe front up above and a reflector in chest height eliminating most of the shadows under her chin. Apart from a minor “hair-job”, this is more or less straight out the camera.

Neighbors

This old lady is one of many nice neighbors that I have. She waters our flower beds, and has been doing so for 35 years. She is also often seen sitting outside on one of our beaches. On my way out today, I took a picture of her ( ask asked for permission after..)

Oslo by Night

adminwp — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 22:57:13 +0000

I finally invested in a tripod, and I chose Benro C-297. I´t a carbon fiber tripod, so the weight is not that bad, and the build is very good. I also bought a Manfrotto 804RC2 pan / tilt head, but I´m not all that impressed with that. The mount on the Manfrotto is not solid enough to support my camera when I have Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS USM mounted on my camera body. It tilts a couple of degrees after the handgrip /adjustment is tightened. Anyway, I took it all out for a spin today, and these are some visual expression from my first “tripod shootout”

Heavy storms

Oslo is likely to get some really serious weather this Sunday. This is to much, even for kiters and windsurfers.
