The moon is a fascinating subject to photograph. While most images are either of the moon directly or as a part in a landscape image, here I have a different approach: Long time exposures of the moon, usually between 30 to 60 minutes. Due to the movement of the moon the results are these moon trails.
In combination with the landscape and buildings or other objects this can result in fascinating compositions.
When high season is over, many places go into a kind of hibernation until next season. This series is about these places: The diving platform at a local lake in freezing temperatures, the boat harbour in winter or other places of interest.

Shapes and forms, structures and patterns - that is the essence of these images. From architecture to to great landscapes - less colour can be more.
Not confined by reality, possibilities are endless.
Whether it is northern Norway, the neighbour town in Russia or Japan: Colour is an essential element in these images.
Colour can create a magic, moody or even gloomy atmosphere. Although not every image is taken in the north, living here made me more aware of light and colour.
Because sometimes great landscapes just need a bit more space
From fall to spring, the aurora can be seen in northern Scandinavia. Here are some images from my aurora hunting trips.
