Footsteps

Footsteps walking with me
Footsteps I cannot see
But every move I make
And every step I take
I know they're there with me
They walk with me all the way
Beside me day by day
Through good and bad
Through happy and sad
Those footsteps won't go away 

Eggs

A photographer is like a fish, he lays thousands of eggs

 hoping that one will grow to maturity.

I wanna trust you...

I wanna trust you but I don't know if I do, 

so I'm just gonna try.

 I'm gonna try and trust you because I believe

 that we can be extraordinary together

 rather than ordinary apart. 

Memory

You know what a camera is? A mirror with memory.

Nature

Good nature will always supply the absence of beauty;

 but beauty cannot supply the absence of good nature.

Summer feelings

White Castle

One and a half years ago I was at Lysøen.

 I photographed the beautiful castle of Ole Bull. 

This picture has always meant a lot to me without knowing why.

 Is it fate? 

Because by beautiful Lysøen lives a beautiful person

 who suddenly came into my life 

and turned it around

Stormy weather

even in stormy weather the days are beautiful with you

Red Sunset

The color of love is red

Rainbow

                          Life is like a rainbow.

                           You need both the sun and the rain to make its colors appear

I Love...

I love everything about lighthouses 

their daymark, their coastal locations 

the style of tower, the keepers  dwelling 

the way they endure the powers of nature. 

Most of all, I love their light, bright, 

seen from far sight

a sense of “safety” no matter how dark the night.

Memories

I've learned that good-byes will always hurt, pictures will never replace having been there, 

memories good and bad will bring tears,

 and words can never replace feelings.

My cloud

Out here on the ledge

I finally picked out my cloud

It's the one over there surrounded by all that air

I'm so glad we had this moment here alone

My camera

The camera is an excuse to be someplace you otherwise don't belong.

 It gives me both a point of connection and a point of separation. 

- Susan Meiselas-

The sea

Follow the river and you will find the sea

Alnes lighthouse



You can fall in love at first sight with a place as with a person

Lunar Eclipse

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

Talking to the moon

I am

Talking to the Moon

Trying to get to You

In hopes you're on

the other side

Talking to me too

Or am I a fool

who sits alone

Talking to the moon

I know you're somewhere out there

Somewhere far away

Sunset

Clouds come floating into my life,

 no longer to carry rain or usher storm,

 but to add color to my sunset sky

Norway in a Nutshell





You're my hero

Hope is always on your side

There''ll be days when it is harder to find,

You'll reach that mountain top some how

You may have to walk for miles

Cross the desert

Swim rivers wide

No matter who you are

You're my hero

When you feel like giving up

Just look how far you've come

'Cause when you take that first step

You know you've already won

You are so close you can almost

Hold it in your hands

Still waiting...

Forgive, sounds good

Forget, I'm not sure I could

They say time heals everything

But I'm still waiting

I'm through with doubt

There's nothing left for me to figure out

I've paid a price

And I'll keep paying

Spring fever

“It's spring fever....

You don't quite know what it is you DO want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!”

-Mark Twain-

This prayer

The night we met blended in with the bustle of the city

Passed between dreams and reality and disappeared like an illusion

Because the moon that day was too far and my memory was vague with your blurred figure

We looked up together at the moon

 that looked close enough to touch, didn't we?

It was so beautiful that I felt pain in my chest and was about to cry

I closed my eyes and sweared

"If this prayer come true, I need nothing, nothing else"

Everybody's changing

You say you wander your own land

But when I think about it

I don't see how you can

You're aching, you're breaking

And I can see the pain in your eyes

Says everybody's changing

And I don't know why

So little time

Try to understand that I'm

Trying to make a move just to stay in the game

But everybody's changing

And I don't feel the same



My soul

 Some days, feels my soul has left my body

Feel I’m floating high above me

Like I’m looking down upon me

Start sinking, everytime I get to thinking

It’s easier to keep on moving

Never stop to let the truth in

Sometimes I feel like it’s all been done

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one

Sometimes I wanna change everything I’ve ever done

Too tired to fight and yet too scared to run

Words

Some words are better left unspoken



My shadow

Following my footsteps home

This time I'm walking alone

Trying hard to be someone

I don't even know

I feel like a shadow

Walking behind who you think I am

Just like my shadow

Wanting to see the sun again

The Water is Wide

The water is wide I can not get over

And neither have I wings to fly

Give me a boat that will carry two

And both shall row my love and I



Content with silence

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs.

 When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.

-Ansel Adams-

Limitation.

Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation.
 Look with your understanding,
 find out what you already know,
 and you'll see the way to fly.

Harsh mistress

Close enough to touch

But careful if you try

Though she looks as warm as gold

The moon’s a harsh mistress

The moon can be so cold

-Jimmy Webb-



Bergen by night

Explore

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed

 by the things that you didn't do

 than by the ones you did do

 So throw off the bowlines

 Sail away from the safe harbor

 Catch the trade winds in your sails

Explore

 Dream

 Discover

-Mark Twain-

Afterglow

 

When I look back

I see the landscapes

That I have walked through

But it is different

All the great trees are gone

It seems there are

Remnants of them

But it is the afterglow

Inside of you

Of all those you met

Who meant something in your life

-Olav Rex-

Time

Your priorities are where you spend your time



Grief

This grief overwhelms me

It burns in my stomach

This loss is numbing me

It pierces my chest

I thought we'd be simple together

But i was sadly mistaken

 

 

Their last view together

And they were holding each other tight

by this beautful view

 He gently stroked her hair away from her face

and then he kissed her

This was their last kiss

by this beautiful view

The next day he poured her heart out

and left it on the floor

 

Hold my hand

If you just hold my hand

I promise that I'll do all I can

Cause when it gets dark and when it gets cold

We can just hold each other till we see the sunlight

Things will get better if you just hold my hand

The door

And if I told you about my dreams of you and me,

 would you walk out the door

 and leave me?

Dreams

We all have our time machines.

Some take us back, they're called memories.

 Some take us forward, they're called dreams

Mountain

Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top.

 Then you will see how low it was...



Private emotion

 

It’s a private emotion that fills me tonight

And a silence falls between us

As the shadows steal the light

And wherever you may find it

Wherever it may lead

Let your private emotion come to me

It runs both ways, open up your eyes

Can’t you see me here, how can you deny

Let your private emotion come to me

Somebody like you

And I'm letting go of all my yesterdays

I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made

Now theres just one thing I wanna do

I wanna feel the moonlight shining down on me and you

When you put your arms around me

I know theres nothing in this world I can't do

I wanna love somebody like you

I wanna love you

I swear

Self hatred grows in me like cancer

I can’t locate its whereabouts but it's feasting on its host.

Self-fulfilling prophecy

You’re the only guaranteed loyalty

In this world,

Full of violent mothers

Starving daughters

Leaving lovers.

I swear to you

 I’ll never trust again.
