Jostein,
Amazing landscapes.
One of my favorites is Snowscooter for the scale it shows.
The sailboat dwarfed by the cliffs is magnificent as well.
Who was the shooter carrying both rifle and camera?
Regards,  Bob S.

Wow, great gallery.
Such detail.

I liked the snowmobile's and the green ice and the shot of the snow
covered door handle, to name just a few

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[Jack Davis]

Striking array of shots recording a pleasing trek in a stunning landscape.
Especially enjoyed: #5, 10, 14, 17, 21, 29, 33, 38 and 51.

#10 made me smile when I noticed the 'plywood' dog. ;)

#21 made me gasp, but was subdued somewhat when I noticed the uncooperative 
last reindeer. :)

Thanks for the treat!

Jack

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[Ann Sanfedele]

Jostein! wow!
These should be a book...  

In context of the entire essay, the one that I had a trouble seeing 
(literally) is the least intersting, although I could
see it in this presentation... did you lighten it a bit?  Did you show 
it first because you doubted it yourself and wanted feedback?

Or was it the first one you worked on...

There are so many here that are stand-outs  -
If someone said we are curating a show and Joestein can only submit 10 
or 15 photos  from this lot, I think I'd pick these...
but not in any order of preference... just in order of appearance  in 
your portfolio


1, 4, 7,12,14,16,19,21,24,29, 31!! , 33,38,40,43!!,49  




Ok thats 16...   such gorgeous stuff!

So when are you going to work for National Geographic or something???  I 
know, it wouldn't be fun if it was an assignment.

To bad you didn't spot one of the camels.

Besides this, it looks like you made good use of the photographic
opportunities.
I can see another slide show coming over the vannskille.

STUNNING.

Faves:

11, 12, 19 (fabulous!), 23, 29 (love that schooner), 33, 38, 40 (wishing
wider!), 53.

Just beautiful - all of them. You should be proud.

According to this page



built in Germany originally, re-fitted in Nederland as a 2 masted
schooner and seems to be berthed in the ice for 3/4 months a year and
used by Nutty Norwegians and others as a base for further exploration on
skidoos.

Nice boat!

Some truly excellent shots here. Among my favorites are the skis at the door, 
the street at night, the distant town at night, and many more. Well done!

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[AlunFoto]

Even when being there, it's easy to be fooled by the dimensions. Every
feature is further away and every ascent steeper than you expect. :-(

The rifle gal was our guide for the trip. She turned out to be quite a
personality. Enough merits already to deserve a NatGeo article all of
her own. I asked her if she had any big projects this year. She
shrugged and told me she had to work as guide for a couple of years to
save up for the next big one. This year her only plans were to cross
Greenland by ski, along the old Nansen route. She didn't like to talk
much about her personal projects, but I discovered her previous
achievement was to circumnavigate the islands of South Georgia by
kayak in a group of four, last November. :-)

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[AlunFoto]

Glad you like it, Ann! :-)
The night shot of the mine on the hillside may have been altered, I'm
not sure. I did the editing on the laptop, and tweaked it back and
forth after posting the PESO. This publishing was done from my desktop
PC, after transferring the whole bundle of shots from the laptop. I
quickly lose track of my versioning with those operations.

To be on assignment to do shoot stuff like that wouldn't bother me
much. But I don't think I'll be working for NatGeo anytime soon, Ann.
:-(

Met a Dutch photographer on assignment up there, btw. He was
commissioned by a travel agency.

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[AlunFoto]

The boat is a schooner that they anchor in Tempelfjorden each winter
and let it freeze in. It is then used for accommodation in an
"adventure travel" concept. Guests are picked up in Longyearbyen by
dog sled, and are entertained with excursions. The trip to
Longyearbyen takes about two hours on a nice day by snowmobile, I
think, so it's probably about the double by dog sled.

The last of the three images has a seal resting on the ice between me
and the boat. The seals carve breathing holes in the ice from
underneath, and come up to rest. That's where the polar bear hunts
them, btw.

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

Thanks Toine,
I think the sailboat has Dutch owners. The manager who came out to
chat with us also spoke with a heavy dutch accent. The boat has its
own website in Dutch too:

Thanks Tim. Not sure about the slide show. The material isn't big
enough to weave a proper story for that kind of presentation, I think.

Other parties saw the bears in that area on the same day, even. A
mother with a year-old cub. We didn't have the luck, though. :-(

Btw, snowmobiles are required to have top speed faster than a bear can run. :-)

The camera is working very well indeed. I'm considering to sell off
more of my K-mount stuff, but have to work the big dee through a
spring season first, to decide what I will let go.

my only regret is that I didn't stockpile 645 lenses a year ago. Could
have got a nice profit from selling them now.

well, as the old advice has it, you don't have to run faster than the bear,
you have to run faster than the person next to you.

That's a good idea, but all you really need is to make sure some other

Thanks Paul,

I'm working on taking shots like the skis at the door. Shooting just
landscapes all the time is my default state of mind.

Please forgive my sorry humor, Jostein.(?) If I remember, there is a blocky

Those images are simply stunning!  I especially like the ones with the

In #18, is that a person or a statue?

On the other hand, a bear will try much harder to get a 645D from you

Fantastic stuff Jostein.

Suppose you just have to carry on taking great photos when you've got
a 645D stuck to your face...

Particularly love the schooner one with the mountains recessing into
the background. Brilliant.

Absolutely stunning!

The night time shots are great and those featuring the ship (eg. 29, 32)
have that early 'polar expedition' feel - like some of Frank Hurley's
photos on the Shackleton expedition.

But my absolute favourite has to be 19.  The combination of diffused
light and shadow is simply superb.

An amazing gallery, then night shots especially.  The one with the
three light poles is sublime.

Thanks, Dan! The guy on the stone pillar is indeed a person. His
girlfriend was standing next to me, so I asked her if she thought he
would mind having his picture taken. She said he wouldn't mind, and as
I lifted the camera, she called out to him to strike a pose.

Thanks Chris...

Could have left the camera there for hours if I didn't have to
breathe. One exhale however careful with the camera close was enough
to fog the viewfinder over.

Amazing set of images, sir. And you're as tall as ever, judging from 
that group photo...


The only tiniest nitpick is that I would like to see English translation 
of the titles that are not names of the places...

Normally I'm not one to hicjack, or even derail, a good pun thread, but 
Brian made me remember something... There was this guy on one of the 
Svalbard outings who had a dark filter permanently attached to his lens, no 
matter the weather. And yes, he did refer to it as a "polar filter"...
