Photoshoot in a closed mill
Website – html and css
2. Semester at Noroff have started some time ago now and we have until now this semester worked with basics of website building and coding. At first we went through the basics of html and then gradually also more and more use of css and how these two works together. I think i was rather lucky in this, since i knew most of the basics before this, but i did learn a few tricks that have made the coding job easier fro me.

The Trail goes to Cyprus, Agia Napa.
Hi, I am back after a while on holyday, and also some days without connection to the www, some problems at the internet provider’s side, really annoying. We had a really nice trip going from 13 degrees Celsius and landed at night in around 30 degrees Celsius. I will try to give a little recap of the vacation here.
Already on the first night we went to a pub down the street from the hotel, the next day we decided we wanted to check out the pool, and had a really good time just relaxing at one of the hotels 3 pools. For diner we went to the hotel restaurant (not the best choice but we needed to start somewhere)… we had mousak (more…)
Getting Closer
There is only 2 weeks until I will have picked the most suited artist for the position as the illustrator for my series. Then I will go on holyday, when I get back the work with the series will start and at some point it will be released on a not yet set website.
Only 4 weeks until I will start my life as a student at Noroff in Kristiansand, looking forward to this, and looking even more forward to reaching some of my goals. The first is the illustrated series.
Today I bring this color work, this was not my plan with this, I was thinking of doing some texture and masking for this, but ended up with a color work.
Time Lost
The time we have lost can never be regained, however we can remember that time and learn from it, so we don’t loose more time in the same manner. We should always use the time that we have in the best possible way if we shall ever be able to reach any of the goals in life.
Todays picture were shot at a veteran car show in Kristiansand last year, very little work done with it in terms of PS.
Vacation planned and planetickets ordered, going to Cyprus – Ayia Napa the 14th August.
The Scary Volvo V70
I have not had time to write as much here as I would have liked the last days, so I will do a recap of the last days most interesting events. I have for the last days done an odd job one hour trip by car away from here at Evje. On Wednesday this week I had an expensive experience that I deserved for sure. I was kinda tired and a little hungry and wanted to get home as soon as possible, so I stepped on the speed to get home earlier, I normally don’t speed much over the speed limits. When I was 15 minutes away from home, at the end of the 70 km/h limits were the 50-60s start there was this annoying burgundy Volvo V70 driving a little too close to me, so I speeded even more to get a little gap between me and the Volvo, but it came back after a little while each time I did this. I entered the 60 limit and after the first corner in the 50s that comes right after, down the hill after Høyetun the Volvo was back again, then it came to me; “I have screwed up, haven’t I?” Right after I thought this the blue strobes went on and I had to stop. “Could I see your driver’s license please, we measured you too 88,55 km/h over 2 kilometers in the 70 limit zone.” So much for wanting to get home a little earlier, the cost came to a fine of 3600 NOK and 1 penalty point on the license (If you get 8 points over 3 years you lose the license for 6 months). My first Fine ever since I got my license 8 years ago. The thing is that I was planning on giving myself a new lens for my camera for that money, something I would need to forget.
I have on my way home the other days been looking for nice photo opportunities, and yesterday the lighting made a sight that I drive past each day look really good, it’s the ruins of a long forgotten bridge. (One two of the wooden poles still standing) I got more good pictures that day, but I will only show one of them here, the rest is possible to see at my DeviantArt site: LINK
I have also received more works from potential artists for the Illustrated story, I am looking forward to the time were the story will be realized.
Festival: Quart
The Quart Festival went bankrupt in 2008, it was bought and then it was revived in 2009 by the new owners. I am the Editor and a journalist for a small cutural web-mag. so i went to the festival to take pictures and write articles. The picture i present here from the festival is probably not the best, but it is to demonstrate how close you get to the artists as an press-photographer.
Black Eyed Peas had probably one of the most spectacular shows under the festival and was also the second most visited with around 11 to 12 thousand. (Slash and friends had 18 000)
The Quart will probably have a huge minus this year but it is the new owners first year and will probably need 3-4 festivals done before they will be able to make an festival without major problems.
More pictures from the festival can be found here: Clicky (Norwegian site btw)
