This time it is an image that never became popular on Panoramio. But it fits nicely together with my first upload on Ipernity. Only this is a view of the newer part of Tromsø center. The library on the left and the cinema/town hall on the right. Also the hdr editing technique is comparable to my first upload. Lonely Man Photoagraphy © All Rights Reserved.

I could not resist. After the warm welcome at Ipernity I'll like to treat you with a colourful image. It is one of my favorite spots close to Tromsø. This time not in blue but in orange shades.The picture is taken from a bit higher elevation. In the fall one can often observe red and orange colours in the evening.

I never heard about it before, Perhaps not strange as a newcomer to Ipernity. HFF seems to mean Happy Fence Friday. Last Spring I found myself a fence and it almost did not make it through the winter... Anyway, HFF wishes and please can some one enlighten me!

A northern Norwegian impression of autumn. Next; winter around the corner. This is the same place as my previous upload. The fence posts are still standing, But the function is a question mark. In this image the atmosphere is the main element. This in contrast to the previous image were the composition and lines are most important. In other words same place but another view.

This must be my last autumn mood upload for this year. And I'll keep it simple with only colour and silhouettes. We move a fjord to the north and a little higher up. At this particular time of the year the sun is only peeping over the mountain for a couple of minutes. Lonely Man Photography © All Rights Reserved. Made it to EXPLORE frontpage.

I've been thinking about what would be appropriate to upload. The last days of terror in Europe and the Middle East were all over the news. A midnight sun impression seems to be a good choice. Now we can warm up a litle before the winter truly starts. This was one of the few nights in july that the mosquitoes were abundant. So a tripod and setting a timer was necessary. Then I had to run and tried to lure the mosquitoes away from the camera. Even then the spot healing brush tool was used extensively afterwards. Lonely Man Photography © All Rights Reserved.

Back to my 'roots'. This is one of my earlier uploads to Panoramio. I was just beginning with this photosite and I was trying out hdr editing as well. Alright, I know it is not a great photo-technical result. But it gives an impression of the magnificent nature of northern Norway. Lonely Man Photography © All Rights Reserved. Made it to EXPLORE.

Time to upload an image with an architectural content again. Lots of pictures are taken of this landmark. I felt that a little high key / hdr editing was fitting. The Oslo Opera House has been a tourist magnet since it was opened in 2008. One can walk any where on the roof and enjoy great views. It is the home of The Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, and the national opera theatre in Norway. The building is situated near central Oslo, at the head of the Oslofjord. The angled exterior surfaces of the building are covered with Italian marble and white granite and make it appear to rise from the water. It is the largest cultural building constructed in Norway since Nidarosdomen was completed circa 1300.

Now it is celebration time with a sour aftertaste. Today I reached 1,5 million views on Panoramio http://www.panoramio.com/user/6685358 . Because of all the problems with Google and their treatment of Panoramio and its users I had my last upload a couple of months ago. For that reason I publish my last PA upload here on Ipernity. It is a panoramic view of the land/sea-scape at the top point of Grense Jakobselv https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grense_Jakobselv looking east at the Norwegian-Russian border. You see Russia in the far end of this picture. The image contains 4 HDR edited photographs (a total of 12 pictures). This picture is part of a little panorama project I had this summer.

This is not the first place that comes to mind when thinking about street art. But in july 2012, Vardø hosted the world's northern most street art festival, curated by the artist Pøbel - KOMAFEST -. The purpose was to conceptualize the depopuation of northern Norway. Now three years later I tried to capture this art. At least most of the work. Some were already painted over and others I just did not find.

Sometimes light pollution is unavoidable. But it is not said that one can not get a decent image. The northern light is not the main object anymore. But it is playing a role in the ambiance of the image. To give the streetlights a role in the image I used a small aperture so that they become nice stars. This means that the ISO value and exposure time must be higher and longer. The settings of the image above: ISO 800 30'' F/11 - ISO 3200 30'' F/22 - ISO 1600 30'' F/22. It is a 3 exposure hdr edit. I wish you all good light in the new year. Lonely Man Photography © All Rights Reserved. Made it to EXPLORE frontpage.
