York, ME

27/08/2019 by hegdal

The last five days we spent at the Ocean. I have to admit I have really missed living near the ocean. We stayed at Nubble Point, which was a cozy little peninsula. One of the main sights here was the Nubble light house. Every morning there was a 20+ people that gathered around to take a shot of the sunrise here. I did a snap of the light house with my iPhone. I spent my energy photographing other parts, that […]

Road

18/03/2019 by hegdal

While still living in Norway I wondered why there are so many nature & landscape photographers in the USA that incorporate roads in their shots. After living here for 2+ years I have come to realize the big difference of the access to land in the US vs Norway. In Norway we have “Allemansretten” , while in the US the right of the landowner stands highest. Where I live you only risk getting prosecuted for trespassing. So I have ended […]

Traveling

05/09/2017 by hegdal

     So I have done it again. I have traveled. Well that happens all the time. I always have more or less the same gear in my camera bag when traveling and there has never ever been a problem with it. I travel with camera gear: Canon 1D mark IV, Canon EF 16-35mmF4L IS, Canon 50mm F1.2L, a bunch of Lee filters like big and little stopper, remote shutter release, and other cables. Else I had sun-glases, medications, bose […]

Storm is coming

05/07/2016 by hegdal

I am not really a fan of photos taken with a mobile camera. My biggest concern isn’t that it is a camera in everyones hand, but more the fact that the photos are not really that great unless they are presented at that screen or as a tiny web image. On the other hand is todays DSLR’s and mirrorless cameras totally overkill for most usage, you will never really need 20+ Megapixels for presenting a 72dpi photo in normal resolution […]

Streetphotography

30/03/2016 by hegdal

Not my best genere. I feel that if I take photos of people I invade their lives, even though the expectation of privacy should be rather slim out in the streets. As I also have a rather bulky and large camera rig I do not come off as a random tourist either, and I tend to get reactions; Some very positive and some negative. Well enough excuses. What street-photography is very useful for is to learn yourself to see interesting […]

Ballet audition

05/01/2016 by hegdal

I had the pleasure of being able to test something outside my comfort zone as a photographer in the beginning of January. My fiancé is Director & Choreographer of Libertina Dance Company and she invited me to view the audition for new ballet/contemporary dancers for a coming performance of the company. It was almost as shooting birds. Very easy to shoot shots of sitting or stretching dancers, rather difficult to get good shots of dancing. Since this then again was […]

Iceland – The Saga Island Part II

12/10/2015 by hegdal

Now I am back home from a weekend on Iceland. My first comment is that it is an amazing place on earth. The landscape is like never seen before; Very much affected of being an Volcanic Island, placed far up north with strong wind, strong currents in the ocean and a place where the weather shifts fast. There where layers of clouds with the sun behind it, there where mountains and hills, there where flat landscape as long as the […]
