This is the famous Flam of Norway. It was a bit of a cold spell in June but really it was ok. there were not a lot of people around so we pretty much had the very famous flam train to ourselves which was REALLY cool. And when we got to the fiord, it was I bit rainy and cold, but all the better for these dramatic photos and super fantastic scenery. if you can get to the west of Norway, I highly recommend!

Saw these planks crossing sections of the river while on the train and had to walk 2 miles back to walk on them myself. || shot on Kodak TMax 100, 2002, scanned on Nikon Coolscan 4000.

Taken while aboard a ship during the "Norway in a Nutshell" tour. Black and white film was perfect for this moment showing the true contrast of the cliffs versus the sky. Shot on Kodak Tmax 100 with a Canon A2E in 2002.

Steep valley sides and moody clouds made this paddle an overwhelming experience. Gudvangen is one of the most beautiful places in Norway!

During a trip to Norway we visited Nærøyfjord, a narrow branch of the large Sognefjord. Facing away from the fjord I looked up to see these waterfalls of the cliffs surrounding the valley. The overcast, the misty waterfalls and rugged terrain gave way to this mystic feeling of a land where vikings used to rule long ago.

During a trip to Flåm, Norway we travelled to Nærøyfjord. The surrounding valley showed these beautiful and mystic waterfalls pouring down the mountains.

This is a photo of me standing and overlooking a fjord in Norway. We saw this on our way to the famous Trolltunga (Troll’s Tongue).

We left at 4am to get this place to ourselves, and it sure was worth it! It’s a 13km hike to reach this spot, but those 13km are the most beautiful kilometers you will ever walk. This is about as dangerous as it looks; it’s 100’s of metres off the ground - It would hurt. This might well be the most beautiful place in the world.

Hiking to Trolltunga through thick fog in the morning felt like a whole different world. Especially once we realized on the return trip, once the fog had cleared, that we were hiking right next to a massive expanse that proved to be quite the view itself. The fjords of Norway are not to be missed by anyone looking to see what nature has to offer.

After a 12 hour hike in Trolltounge, passing heavy rain and snow, the sky started to clear a bit. So I took off with my Drone, and it was spectacular.

Legend says that Norwegian lakes were made for skipping stones. Also true is that Ringedalsvatnet on a calm summers day is the perfect location to beat your stone skipping high-score.

We were on a shoot for a snowboard travel movie in Folgefonna, Norway. It was mid June. The terrain is usually quite flat in that area so it was hard to find good natural terrain to shoot. Nonetheless riders like Toni Kerkelä never seem to get stressed in these situations and always find a spot that works. Snowboarding is about being out there and making the most out of it no matter with which circumstances you have to battle.

I was on my way to go skiing at Geilo, which is a 2 hour drive from our cabin. I left before the sun was up, but as I was driving, I suddenly noticed how the morning sun beautifully highlighted one of the mountains nearby. I immediately pulled over and snapped this photo with my phone. This photo really makes me think back to that day, and brings back the feeling of being excited for the first day skiing for the season.

Driving around with my family in the Norwegian highlands. Took my drone up for some flying when we came to this dam, the water coming down from the Hardangervidda is crisp and clear.
