About this Piece: In November, as Polar Night approaches, the lighting in the far North of Norway is a photographer’s dream- an almost constant sunrise and sunset during the day, as the sun hangs low in the sky. During a recent trip, I elected to spend a day exploring Kvaløya island, near Tromsø. Whilst walking along the coastline admiring the peace and calm of my immediate surroundings, I spotted some snow-covered rocks poking out of the water. I decided these would be a prime candidate for some long exposure shots. After taking the shots, I noticed the back-and-forth motion of the ice floating on the surface of the fjord created a visual effect of a flow of water, despite there being no actual water movement of that kind in the vicinity.
Artist Statement: I’m a 34 year old hobby photographer from the United Kingdom. I discovered photography around 12 years ago, after being inspired by a photograph uploaded by a friend. Since then, I’ve been constantly striving to teach myself new photographic skills and improve my artwork with every click of the camera shutter.
