Field notes in photographs

Landscapes and cities,
held for a moment.

I photograph places at the point where weather, light, and landscape turn a familiar view into something fleeting. This is a growing collection from the Baltic coast, European cities, Atlantic islands, forests, and the Arctic night.

Iceland's West: From Snæfellsnes to Reykjavík

A journey along the shores of Snæfellsnes toward Reykjavík, taking in volcanic beaches, the cliffs and harbour of Arnarstapi, Búðir’s black church, seals resting at low tide, the lighthouses of Akranes, and quiet riverside greenery in the capital.

Iceland, West Iceland

Iceland's West: From Bólstaðarhlíð to Snæfellsnes

A journey from rushing canyon waterfalls to the coastal landscapes of Snæfellsnes, taking in an orange lighthouse, sheltered harbours, Kirkjufell, grazing horses, volcanic plains, and a red-roofed church above purple lupines.

Iceland, North Iceland

Iceland's North: From Mývatn to Bólstaðarhlíð

A midsummer journey across North Iceland, beginning among Krafla's steaming volcanic fields and Mývatn's craters, continuing past Goðafoss and rain-washed grazing country, and ending at Vatnsskarð and the broad valleys of Skagafjörður.

Iceland, North Iceland

Iceland's Sunny North: From Mjóifjörður to Mývatn

A midsummer drive across eastern and northern Iceland, moving from the secluded waters of Mjóifjörður through Seyðisfjörður and the austere highlands to Dettifoss, the Tjörnes coast, and the steaming earth of Hverir near Mývatn.

Iceland, East Iceland

Iceland's East: From Djúpivogur to Mjóifjörður

An East Iceland journey from Djúpivogur through Berufjörður and the coastal fjords to remote Mjóifjörður, following turquoise rivers, basalt mountains, sheep pastures, lighthouses, snowy passes, and isolated fishing settlements.
