It is not how it looked in the viewfinder but it is how I wanted it to look in the end. The process of creating photographs is one with endless possibilities between the accurate recordings and significant transformations through camera settings and post processing steps. There is no "right" way to do all this and all options are available – at least for the open minded. So we choose the shutter speed, set the aperture, widen the angle or zoom in, highlight some elements, darken others, sharpen somethings, blur others, saturate and de-saturate, blend and hide,... all which change and transform the raw photo into something interesting for the eye – at times even visual art. Here I tried to create a piece of work that resembled the reality but also transcended into new visual dimensions which could not be seen by the human eye on location – merely in my mind. The long exposure and various post processing steps made this possible. The raw material was captured on Havskåren, a tiny island in the Oslofjord by the Nøtterøy archipelago. I posted this because I liked how the composition turned out. I also love the colors – muted yet warm and inviting. Earth colors. I hope you enjoy this work as much as I enjoyed creating it.

This photo is taken on the magnificent stone beaches of Jæren on the southwest coast of Norway. The coast here changes between rock and sand and just a few meters to the left of this location you will find the finest sand beach.

This is captured on a small island in the Norwegian archipelago. The ice age shaped this landscape when the land was covered by glaciers. My work on flickr

This is another photo taken at the magnificent stone beaches of Jæren on the southwest coast of Norway.

Larvikite occurs only in the Oslo-rift. It originally crystallised at a depth of 3 to 4 km below the earth’s surface. The rock is typically pale or dark grey in colour and is composed mainly of feldspar. The characteristic blue sheen seen in reflected light, is caused by slight difference in composition and layering of the feldspar crystals. Larvikite is an exclusive building stone used all over the world. In London the ground floor of Harrods is laid with larvikite also used as a facing stone on numerous other buildings. The rock on this island was carved by the heavy glaciers during the ice age and created a magnificent landscape. You will find many of my seascape captures from this place. This is a photo very similar to one I posted last year. As you might discover I have used a different processing this time and that together with the slightly different angle and composition made me post this view again. I can not quite make up my mind which version I like most but I believe I like the composition better on this one.

Another part of the magnificent coastal scenery of Esperance in the far south east of Western Australia. Located on the edge of the mighty Southern Ocean in the Recherche Archipelago, Esperance is the principal holiday town for the Goldfields and also for those residents of Perth who don’t mind the 750 kms drive. These days, however, more and more people fly down (an hour and a half) and rent a car on arrival. / Many world travellers who include Esperance on their itinerary say without hesitation that the beaches here are by far the best they have seen anywhere and who am I to argue with that! / This photo was taken from the car park at Observatory Point, about 8 kms out of town, and we are looking west along the seemingly endless line of beaches that stretches into infinity.

Summer night on the west coast of Sweden. Only some slight contrast and brightness changes made.

Another long exposure from a stone beach along the west coast of the Oslofjord. This fabulous black stone is for some reason almost flat in contrast to all the other round shaped rocks on the beach.

Another trip to Havskaaren. It takes about 20 minutes with a fast boat to reach this location in the local archipelago. It is one of my favorite locations for photographing seascapes. It was a fairly friendly autumn evening but the sea was quite rough and the waves almost to big to enter the island. But, for good seascapes you have to try harder and we did. My companion got wet by a large wave right after entering the shore and little later we had both wet feet after getting too close to those dangerously beautiful waves. This was one of the last photos I shot. It was getting dangerously dark and we had to get back to the mainland when I spotted this small stream of ocean water flowing in from the waves in the back. Shortly after this shot we were on our way back supported by the full moon light.

It takes about 20 minutes with a fast boat to reach this last island of the local archipelago. It is one of my favorite locations for photographing. This is the view of the ocean from the south most tip. It was the first evening with some real summer weather for a while. The sea was quite warm but still unsettled after recent days of wind. Actually we had a clear sky just until the sunset. At that time low clouds started to appear on the horizon – to my photographic pleasure of course. I took a lot of pictures this evening (as I usually do here) so it was hard to pick one to start with. But, in the end I liked this one a lot. I hope you enjoy it too. My work on flickr

How on earth this beach came by it’s name I honestly don’t know. Perhaps it CAN get rough. Perhaps it WAS rough the day it was discovered and named! Being on the Southern Ocean and exposed to the strong swells that roll in from the Antarctic that is a likely scenario but we have been here 3 or 4 times and on each occasion “Peaceful Bay” would have been a far more appropriate name! The location is on the shores of Cape Le Grande National Park some 50 kms east of Esperance in the far south east of Western Australia, some 750 kms by road from Perth. I have to say that being here is nothing short of idyllic! Peter

This evening was quiet yet still there were some lazy swells rolling into the beach creating opportunities for some nice semi-long exposure shots. The sky featured some wonderful clouds positioned in various altitudes and painted in different colors as the sun moved lower. Luckily the ocean was still allowing the sky to reflect nicely on the surface. The stones on the beach have all sorts of colors from the various places the glacier picked them up before dumping them here when it started melting some thousands of years ago. Thanks to vandrende who showed me this wonderful beach.
