Photography
A Moment in Time
Photography offers the opportunity to freeze a fleeting moment with a short exposure, or through a long exposure blur a series of moments into an impression of time passing. Both in reality elude us; one too short, the other too long.
Lighthouse and Sunlight
The american painter Edward Hopper is one of my favourite painters. His work includes a series of painting of lighthouses along the coast of Maine. I came to think of them as I visited this lighthouse earlier this summer.
And as I have pointed out before, in some way or another your work will be influenced by the sum of your experiences and what you are exposed to. All the things you take a little time to explore, things you are intrigued by, things that spark your curiosity.
“Maybe I am not very human. What I wanted to do was to paint sunlight on the side of a house.”

Like a sheet of Glass
With a fast shutter speed the waves, ripples and braking up of the thin sheet of water flowing over the edge of this fountain becomes visible. And to me it looks like a sheet of glass breaking up.

Spring Foliage
There is something light and delicate about the foliage as the leaves start to appear in the spring. For the first few days the leaves are almost transparent and have a light colour, before they grow larger and denser.
Ripples and Sunlight
One of my photographic, guilty pleasures, the way surface ripples creates patterns in shallow pools and ponds.
Iceland PODAS
It is four years ago now since I joined the PhaseOne workshop in Iceland. It was a great experience, and I learned a lot. Browsing through the images brings back fond memories.
