It is shot in glaring sunlight, but it still looks dark and eery. This photos hangs in our living room, printed on aluminium at 2.5x1 meters. This is stitched together from three exposures, shot with a tilt & shift lense. I memory serves me correctly, it was the 24mm Canon Tilt&Shift.

The Elf. This was shot in November. It was cold. Just before the first bits of snow hit the ground, but Tina took one for the team and posed without complaining. I was using a special Tilt&Shift lens, which requires a bit of fiddling, and only has manual focus, so posing and shoot took longer than a normal. This particular photos has an exposure of 3 seconds.

In 2004 I went for a trip to Shetland all alone for a few days. I stayed in different places, either hotels, or rented apartments every night and drove all over the largest islands that make up this wonderful place .It was the first time I drove on the left side of the road, which lead to a couple of interesting situations in the traffic. This dirt road, outlined by the brick walls that criss cross the entire island, was one of the best landscape shots I got on the first day of my trip. I like the way the road seems to disappear almost into the clouds. This is shot with a very wide 16mm lens which always exaggerates perspective, at f/22 for maximum depth of field. At the time I had the Canon EOS 10D, which was my first full frame digital camera.
