Kunstsilo – From Grain to Greatness: Capturing Kristiansand’s Cultural Beacon

Kunstsilo – From Grain to Greatness: Capturing Kristiansand’s Cultural Beacon

🖼️ New post: Golden Hour & Long Exposure at Kunstsilo, Kristiansand.

Yesterday I shared a photo and a short story on my site from an evening at Kunstsilo — Kristiansand’s beautifully transformed grain silo turned art museum.
As the sun set, the building’s bold curves and glassy reflections came alive through long exposure photography.

Inside, Kunstsilo is just as impressive — home to the world’s largest collection of Nordic modernist art, interactive exhibitions, and incredible architecture worth exploring with both eyes and lens. #kunstsilo #kristiansand #architecturephotography #goldenhourmagic #longexposure #nordicart #museumphotography #modernism #urbanlandscape #norwaybylight

Kilden – Architecture, Culture, and Golden Hour Light in Kristiansand

Kilden – Architecture, Culture, and Golden Hour Light in Kristiansand

🎭 New post: Long Exposure & Sunset Light at Kilden, Kristiansand.

Some nights ago I spent some time photographing Kilden Performing Arts Centre during golden hour — and the light did not disappoint.
The curved wooden facade, calm water, and glowing sky came together beautifully in long exposure frames.
It’s one of those rare places where architecture, art, and nature all meet — and every visit feels a bit different.

Håmmårsbukta – Light, History, and Stillness by the Fjord

Håmmårsbukta – Light, History, and Stillness by the Fjord

🌅 New post: Sunset & Stillness at Håmmårsbukta, Skatval.

Today I shared a photo and a short story from an evening at Håmmårsbukta — a quiet bay on the Skatval peninsula with a rich history and an incredible view over the Trondheimsfjord.

With the golden hour light fading and the water calm, I set up for some long exposure shots — and the results felt soft, peaceful, and full of quiet motion.

This spot was once part of WWII coastal defenses, but today it’s a beautiful, open space for walking, thinking, and photographing light as it shifts.

Bystranda – Soft Waves and Golden Light in the Heart of Kristiansand

Bystranda – Soft Waves and Golden Light in the Heart of Kristiansand

🌅 New post: Long Exposure and Golden Light at Bystranda, Kristiansand.

Just shared a few images and a short story from a golden hour session at Bystranda — Kristiansand’s urban beach.
Soft waves, glowing reflections, and that peaceful contrast between modern architecture and natural shoreline made it a perfect setting for some long exposure photography.

Sometimes the most beautiful light is right at the edge of the city.

Brekka – An Abandoned House Full of Questions and Golden Light

Brekka – An Abandoned House Full of Questions and Golden Light

🏚️ New post: Brekka – An Abandoned House with a Story Untold

I’ve driven past this old house in Grandmarka near Sparbu more times than I can count — always wondering what kind of life once filled its rooms.
This time, I stopped.

Shot a few frames during golden hour, and the light brought out every texture and crack like a whisper from the past.
Sometimes, the places we pass by are the ones that stay with us the most.

Steinvikholmen – Golden Light and Quiet History by the Fjord

📸 New on the blog: Steinvikholmen at Sunset

Just posted a short story and photo series from Steinvikholmen, a quiet historic site by the fjord in Skatval.
I visited during golden hour, and the old castle ruins lit up beautifully as the sun dipped behind the mountains. Calm water, warm light, and timeless textures — a perfect scene for landscape photography.

Solnedgang på Velvang

Solnedgang på Velvang

A new photopost on Tronder.org:

Velvang – a peaceful paradise for photography

Just 30 minutes from town, Velvang on Skatval is one of my favorite spots for photography. There’s no need to walk far – inspiring scenes are everywhere you look. The golden hour, especially in spring and autumn, brings beautiful sunsets and waves rolling in along the shoreline. With a tripod, long exposures, and both wide-angle and zoom lenses, the creative possibilities are endless.

Some call it landscape, others seascape – I just call it peaceful and fun. Bring your camera (or just your phone) and head to Velvang before sunset. You won’t regret it.
