Snow and R-A-I-N

As I am preparing for the upcoming workshop "Project R-A-I-N: Vancouver"  I would like to share with you some imagery taken during challenging weather conditions. I think this is the first time ever when all workshop participants are actually looking forward to R-A-I-N and/or S-N-O-W! 🙂 Enjoy!     2018 © OLI Publishing Inc. All [...]

December 11, 2016February 1, 2017by Olafphoto24 Comments on Vancouver’s Winter Wonderland (Part 1)

For those of you who took my last blog post literarily – unfortunately I do not drive an Aston Martin! Keep in mind I am a photographer. As many of you know, for the last year I have been working on a project called R-A-I-N. The objective of this endeavour was to document visuals of [...]

“Strong & Free” with the XF 50-140mm F2.8 OIS

When I leave home for an event or for street shooting I often take my Fuji X-Pro2 and one lens. It’s usually the XF 35mm F1.4 (50mm in FF). However, this time I decided to grab a lens that goes into my bag only when we hit the road – that is, the XF 50-140m [...]

Fifty Shades (and Colours) of Palouse

The problem is that at this time of year the hills and valleys in the Palouse put on an amazing display of greens and browns, enough to excite even the most demanding colour photographer.

Manipulated Landscape – Part 2

Named after the bituminous sands, Bitumount is a place where the story of the Oil Sands really began. Between 1925 and 1958, experiments separating oil from sand were performed and led to the birth of the technology used today. The Great Canadian Oil Sands started the first large-scale mining operations in 1967. However, due to [...]

Manipulated Landscape – Part 1

This land stretches 54,826 square miles, an area larger than England. Structures such as the toxic tailing lakes are some of the largest human-made structures in the world – so large that they can be seen from space.

A Photographic State of Mind

A Photographic State of Mind

I don’t know whether it’s the time of the year or a malfunction in my cycle of seeing but I notice that the January/February period often carries me into a slightly different state of photographic mind. I tend to hold my camera less and explore more with my mind. This is the time when I [...]
