The Rewinder
I had studied and found this place using digital maps. I could see the potential before going there but I had never seen anyone taking a photo of it this way. The big work is to be able to anticipate the editing process once I am on spot. I knew roughly where to stand to have the right angle but it was not easy to access as the place is covered with big boulders fallen from the cliff edges.
Taking a photo is something I love, but working hard beforehand to plan the photo is something I live for.
I grew up in a small town between Lyon and Switzerland, and left France in may 2011 to explore the world, and discover my passions for the great outdoors and photography.
I discovered completely diverse environments which helped me working on my photo compositions & technics , and becoming a full time outdoor guide in April 2016.
Patience and creativity is all you need.
I believe in self teaching. This huge passion pushes him everyday and night to improve and became now part of my everyday life.
The photos I capture in my portfolio are the result of thousands of hours spent outside under snowstorm, strong winds, heavy heat, freezing cold temperatures, long drives, great hikes, early mornings, late evenings, and tremendous amount of time spent waiting and facing nature without knowing what will come.
That's what keeps him in love with Landscape and Night Photography;
The No Control aspect of it.

entry description
We can find windy roads in many places in Northern Norway, but finding the right angle to photograph them can be another story. Catching this incredible aurora into the narrow valleys of Senja took me good 2 hours of waiting under -10 degrees C, in a particularly awkward position perched on a sharp rock edge.I had studied and found this place using digital maps.
