ragnar fredrik photos

In the process of reviewing older photos, I discovered that my holiday trip to Thailand in 2012 had not been included in my 'Travel' collection. I have now posted the pictures that I mean deserved to see 'the light'. Neither the technical equipment nor my own eye for compositions and locations was probably not the best at that time. Fun to see that something has evolved on older days too 🙂

The whole album can be seen when navigating to; Travel -> Thailand

I prosessen med å gjennomgå eldre bilder oppdaget jeg at min feriereise til Thailand i 2012 ikke var kommet med i samlingen 'Travel'.. Jeg har nå lagt opp de bildene jeg syntes fortjente å komme frem i lyset. Hverken det tekniske utstyret eller eget øyet for komposisjoner og ståsteder var nok ikke det beste den gang. Morsomt å se at man har utviklet seg noe også på eldre dager 🙂

Hele albumet kan sees ved å navigere til; Travel -> Thailand

As mentioned before, I look over 'old' pictures occasionally .. and these 2 from Borregaard were shot on a cold winter day in 2012. It is especially the smoke and the fantastic sunset I think I got presented better now - after a review in PS (without exaggerating!) - It was a special light that night!

Som før nevnt ser jeg over 'gamle' bilder innimellom.. og disse 2 fra Borregaard ble skutt en kald vinterdag i 2012. Det er særlig røyken og den fantastiske solnedgangen jeg synes jeg fikk presentert på en bedre måte nå -etter en gjennomgang i PS (uten å overdrive!) -det VAR et spesielt lys den kvelden!

Again, I experienced that motifs may appear in the immediate vicinity of where you live. These photos are from a couple of short bike rides in Fredrikstad at the end of May 2020.

Igjen erfarte jeg faktisk at det kan dukke opp motiver i umiddelbar nærhet hvor man bor. Disse fotoene er fra ett par små sykkelturer i Fredrikstad i slutten av mai 2020.

April 12 2020 I decided on a small photo tour to Halden. After all, it's no more than approx. 30 mins to drive and I had not been in that city for quite a while. I stumbled into a very interesting district with old houses and some decay - VERY decayed! And I like such!
I also stopped at the railroad and shot a small fun industrial plant.
Here's a selection - but more photos from the little tour will be posted in the albums eventually.

April 12 2020 bestemte jeg meg for en liten foto-tur til Halden. Tross alt er det ikke mer enn ca. 30 min å kjøre og jeg hadde ikke vært i den byen på en god stund. Jeg dumpet borti en svært interessant bydel med gamle hus og en del forfall -VELDIG forfallent mye av det! Og slikt liker jeg!
Stoppet også ved jernbanen og fikk med et lite artig industrianlegg.
Her er et utvalg -men flere bilder fra den lille turen vil legges ut i albumene etterhvert.

Sometimes you may want to take a closer look at older photos. Then you might find that there has previously been a tricky or poor job of processing - or that with a little processing -a previously unattractive picture becomes quite ok anyway!

Here I have a collection from 2011 that I think benefited from a round in Photoshop. They are of course released in their respective albums - but I thought it was ok to show them together here as well.

Noen ganger kan det være lurt å ta en grundigere kikk på eldre bilder. Da finner man kanskje ut at det tidligere har vært gjort en snodig eller dårlig jobb med bearbeiding -eller at MED litt bearbeiding blir et tidligere uinteressant bilde ganske så bra likevel!

Her har jeg en samling fra 2011 som jeg fant at hadde godt av en runde i Photoshop. De er selvsagt lagt ut i sine respektive album -men greit å vise dem samlet her også.

2 old gents in Crete

Wrecks from Crete - For some reason I earlier split this image in 2 and added a strange light effect.. Now it's more like it -I think.

Seut Mech. - Old -now demolished shipyard

FMV - Abandoned shipyard

A couple of bird-photos I came to enjoy -anyway! The love-birds are specially cute )

In the middle of April I decided a quick trip Sarpsborg again - via Greåker. And!; there were some brand new industrial 'towers' along the Greåker road!

In Sarpsborg there was a short stop at Borregaard (added photos May 09) -before I went on to Halden .. but I will come back to that..

Industry - Sarpsborg

Midt i april bestemte jeg meg for en snartur til Sarpsborg igjen - via Greåker. Jammen dukket det opp noen helt nye industri-'tårn' langs Greåker-veien!

I Sarpsborg ble det en kort stans ved Borregaard (bilder lagt til 09. mai) -før jeg fant frem til Halden.. men alt det kommer jeg tilbake til..

My latest photos are from a new walk to the idyllic Isegran at Kråkerøy near Fredrikstad. Interesting to follow the project; Cathedral of Hope.

Since I was a child, I remember the old dairy in Fredrikstad. Now it's gone for good. But in 2016 I managed to perpetuate the ruins and decay before it disappeared into history .. Not too many pictures but here they are collected. (They also exist in different albums). The last ones are from 2020 - only some walls are left...

Fra jeg var liten husker jeg godt det gamle meieriet i Fredrikstad. Nå er det borte for godt. Men i 2016 rakk jeg hvert fall å forevige ruinene og forfallet før det forsvant inn i historien.. Ikke så mange bilder ble det men her er de samlet. (De finnes også i forskjellige album). De siste er fra 2020 -bare noen vegger står igjen...

Behind the house we see the abandoned dairy and it's chimney

I had a post talking about this rather new hobby of mine -doing digital drawing or paintings from original photos. First of all -I like -mostly -the results I achieve -but also it's fun to do -and actually photos that are not really that good as photos -might look real nice anyway after such a process! ) Some examples here -for the album:

Uploaded some new today here: ALBUMS/PHOTOS -> Miscellaneous photos -> digital paintings and drawings
