Finally getting out again
Finally, after a long period of no photography, I managed to get out again.
A night in the mountains. Part 2/2, Sunrise
If you haven't read Part 1, please go ahead and do so here. When I packed up and left the location of my sunset shoot, I had this idea that I might get the chance to do some star photography during the darkest hours of the night. But as the night progressed and I was…Les mer A night in the mountains. Part 2/2, Sunrise
A summer night in the mountains. Part 1/2, Sunset
This summer I had a few days to my self at our cabin in Valdres, Norway. One day I decided to drive to Valdresflya, which is a mountain area just outside Jotunheimen National Park. I wanted to spend the night there, so I could get both the sunset and the following sunrise. I also wanted…Les mer A summer night in the mountains. Part 1/2, Sunset
Darktable preferences, part 2
In part 1 of the preferences videos I went through the GUI options tab of the preferences dialog in darktable. If you haven’t watched it, I recommend you take a look here.

The Sound of Silence
Our hectic lives are filled with so much sound. Noise of all kinds, from traffic, from planes passing low overhead, the neighbour's lawn mower. People talking, be it work mates, family or friends. Overly enthusiastic kids on the bus or that businessman who just has to let everyone listen to his very important phone call…Les mer The Sound of Silence
