Remarkable work,really!
Thanks. Reminds me that I’ll have to update this page soon: it’s been static for a while now.
I’d like to see more pictures of Akerselva…
Here’s a bit more of Akerselva:

The Charles Bukowski quote is great, I can not ignore your second shot. But the third and fourth in the above series are really something!
Thanks Emilio. I can at least think of a couple of good reasons not to ignore the second shot 🙂
I’m glad to hear that you like the ‘Photography as political medium / political commentary’ photo, because I didn’t get a lot of response to it when I originally posted it.

Akerselva is such a beautiful place and you’ve captured the beauty so well! Love the last photo with your shadow on the boat. Stunning! 😀
Akerselva can be very beautiful at times. The photo with my shadow on the boat is among my favorite photos from my own catalog.
Very impressive! I look forward to more, well done.
Dina
Takk Dina. Det kommer mer hele tiden 🙂
Very nice set of images.
Thanks Robyn. Just had a quick look at your blog and I’ll definitely be following you.
The 4th one is like from a fairy tale…
Thanks Miz. Akerselva is beautiful with autumn colors.
Great photos!
Thank you Jaap. I’m glad to hear that you like my works.
You’re a fantastic photographer with great sense of aesthetics and sensitivity. The addition of Charles Bukowski, Love is a Dog from Hell – perfect.
Thanks for your kind words Lucile. I love Charles Bukowski. One summer I sat down and read everything I could get my hands on that was written by him. I even named my secondary blog (artishorseshit.wordpress.com) after a quote by him: “Great art is horseshit, buy tacos”.
It’s worth it. It made quite an impression on you. Great name for the blog. Loved it.
By the way, do you happen to have an opinion or preference for a good quality compact camera which is almost giving DSLR quality?
I do race biking and make loads of photos; i need a lightweight one.
I use my iphone only.
Someone recommended canon GX7. Any ideas? Thanks.
It depends on the price range of course, but I think that several of the new mirrorless cameras (micro four third cameras) looks interesting. With the mirrorless cameras you kind of get the benefit of both worlds: they’re light weight and compact, but still flexible with changeable lenses and manual zoom.
For me an important factor to consider would be if the camera can shoot RAW files or if it only shoots JPEG. I enjoy post-processing and working on my photos after shooting, so I’d definitely choose a camera that shoots both RAW & JPEG.
Here are some interesting cameras that’s on the market now (with different price ranges and qualities):
Nikon 1 AW1
Panasonic GM1
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX7
Sony NEX-3N
Canon EOS M
Personally I would get a camera with a viewfinder, but that’s just a matter of taste and preferences.
Great pictures man, I love your style !
Thanks a lot for this wonderful compliment Robin! It lifted my spirits on a rough day!
Yes, love the images and the music!
