Welcome back to the regular old mix of subjects. Today I spotted a spotted woodpecker in the backyard. I even managed to get the long lens (still not long enough though) in time to grab a couple of shots. I am on the final stretch with the beyond tellerrand images. 200 images left in the final selection. The goal is to get that number down to around 150 to make them more digestible. I find this to be a good amount that is not overwhelming while still substantial, if that makes sense. I really enjoy this process of culling and sequencing.

Take Time To Sit By Little Streams (119/365)

Take time to sit by little streams and simply watch. It’s good for the soul.

I sat here for over an hour, just observing—the sun on my face, the birds and insects moving about, the water flowing, one little trout holding steady in the current. It was glorious.

A couple of random impressions from beyond tellerrand. I love putting these together. (The firetruck is not in there by mistake btw, there was a fire alarm at the hotel at 6 in the morning and everybody had to leave their rooms
) I am still in the process of going through all of the images to create the final gallery. Stay tuned! Also, I wanted to say, I am very grateful for the kind words I received over the last couple of days regarding the photos (in person and online) – it is very much appreciated! And one other thing: It feels a little surreal when people come up to me and tell me they follow the blog every day. đŸ€Ż (One of these days I'll add some temporary tracking to get at least a basic idea of how many of you there are.) Oh, and as requested, this post contains not one but two mirror selfies!

Out and About – Frosty Items

Here are some black and white images of frost and ice crystals taken on two different days last year. In November, we walked around a part of Fornebu, just outside of Oslo, and enjoyed the crystals growing on various items — and in December, I shot a bit of frosty nature around our garden. I always love when ice crystals grow on those frosty, humid mornings. It’s the “good” kind of ice.

More wood with ice crystals-a-growing Ice crystals growing even on some random plastic jug left about A frosty spiky seed pod Little islands of baby crystals trying to grow on the lid of our compost bin Four-leaf and frosty Cold, curled leaves Frost on our thujas too Long, long grass at Fornebu Shorter, thick grass in our garden Fancy crystals growing on the frozen surface of a water dish in the garden #Abstract #AbstractPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Frost #Frozen #Ice #IceCrystals #Norway #Photoblog #Photography #winter

Flowers of the Sun (118/365)

We had so much fun with our guests. Lots of good late-night talks, food, hiking, and photography. I’m behind in processing pictures, but hopefully I will get caught up soon. I’ll do a random photo dump in the Stray Pixel section within a day or two.

Another beyond tellerrand is in the books. I had a great time – as always. Thanks for having me, Marc! Speakers above: AndrĂ© Michelle, Kimya Gandhi, Bramus Van Damme, James White and Lauren Celenza. It is hard to describe the feeling I have whenever I am on my way home. I guess hopeful comes to mind (not that I feel hopeless generally, but there is definitely a lot of positive energy in the room at btconf). I definitely feel inspired and ready to get back to work, especially on my own projects like picu or this photo blog. Anyway – the full gallery with many more images will be available later this week. Subscribe via RSS and you know exactly when! 😊
