Svalbard in black & white. Dramatic landscapes from arctic environment.

I got further in going through my Svalbard photos from last summer. I finally got going with my intentions of post processing and turning some of the photos into black & white, grayscale tone.
More of these photos in my Behance projects Svalbard in Greyscale pt.1, pt.2 and pt.3. There's some samples on my Facebook page here.

Winter in Finland.

First of all, Happy New Year of 2011! It's been a really snowy winter all over the world and it's been even snowing in places you rarely get a chance to see this white beauty.

This post includes shots taken in Finland during winter time. At this time of the year you don't get to see sunlight that much, but when the light is up and the ground is white, it just gets beautiful. I just created a new project to Behance Network with the same name as this post so you can go and see more winter photos in here.

First blog post. Here we go. Best of the year 2010.

I've had my portfolio site up for about a year now and now I've decided to start running a photoblog as well. I've generally gotten a bit more active online in terms of photography since I recently set up my Facebook photography page.

I've been thinking what would be the best way to start a photoblog and I'm going with this: My favourite photos from this year, 2010. You could tell there's been some highlight trips for me this year, such as visiting Svalbard and Venice as well as getting a change to photoshoot wild bears from a hide in Northern Finland. I might be putting out some older shots later in the following posts or even doing a similar favourite collection for the year 2009. We'll see what will follow.

Anyway, here’s a collection of my favorite images from this year in no particular order.
