You can find photographs and information by clicking on "PHOTOGRAPHS", or on the thumbnail photographs at the left side column.

My favourite photographs are the "Twin Towers" (New York, 2000), and "The Road" (Norway, 2000).

Technical data:

All photographs on this website are non-digital, except for the photographs that are made by students.
My architectural and nature photographs are made on 100 ISO slide film: Kodak E100G. Landscapes are mostly made on Kodak Portrait Film 400, because of the necessary grain. Portraits are also made on this film.

For the website, original slides and slide copies from prints (50 x 75 cm landscapes) were scanned and reduced to web format: they are not manipulated with software such as Photoshop.
I work with professional Nikon camera´s (F-series) and Nikon F100´s with 20, 24, 35, 50, 105 and 200 mm lenses.

Digital and non-digital images:

Since 2006 I do research concerning the quality of digital and non-digital images.
I used the following camera´s: non-digital professional Nikon, Canon 1D Mark II and Nikon D80 camera´s (normal digital Bayer grid camera´s) and the Sigma SD14 (Foveon X-3 sensor  camera with revolutionary new type of data storage).
The normal digital Bayer grid camera´s produced at least 7 types of anomalies, which I had to give a new name, because these anomalies did not have a name yet. When I am ready, the results will be published.
