Hansbakkfjæra – a hidden gem for photographers

Located on the coast of Ranheim, Hansbakkfjæra offers stunning views of the Trondheim Fjord with Grilstad Marina in the distance. The weathered remains of an old pier – possibly once used by the local paper mill – create a dramatic and historic focal point. With easy car access and parking close to the shoreline, it’s a perfect spot for capturing serene landscapes, moody skies, and the quiet beauty of the Norwegian coast.

Nidelva og gamle bybro ❤️

Nidelva og gamle bybro ❤️

After sunset, during the magical blue hour, the Nidelva and the old city bridge reveal a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow that captures both the city’s storied past and its modern pulse. Deep, cool blues and soft pastel hues paint the sky like a vast canvas, while the calm river mirrors every subtle nuance. The historic bridge, with its weathered stone and graceful arches, stands as a timeless guardian, its details softly illuminated by the diffuse glow of twilight. As the city slowly awakens with scattered warm lights along the riverbanks and narrow streets, these urban sparks create a striking contrast against the cool, blue backdrop. Every long-exposure photograph taken during this enchanting moment transforms the scene into a visual poem—a seamless fusion of history and modernity, inviting viewers to pause, reflect, and marvel at the harmonious dance between nature and human achievement.

Møllenberg’s timeworn facades and Solsiden’s old shipyard echoes unite with modern touches like the nostalgic glow from Rosenborg Bakeri. This harmonious blend of the past and the present creates a photographic symphony, where every detail tells a story of tradition and transformation in the heart of winter.
