About the Image(s)



Last Sunday, I visited my favourite area on the coast west of Bergen. We had stormy weather for several days before that, but it was unsafe to go there then. After about an hour, a new storm with heavy clouds came from the west. I managed to capture a few frames before the wind and hail came over us, and we had no other choice than to evacuate. Even though I was wet and exhausted after the 45-minute walk back to the car, it was a great experience.

To enhance the drama, I decided to convert to black and white. I liked the seagull, which gave more atmosphere to the scene. All postprocessing is done in Lightroom and consists mainly of straightening the horizon and minor dodge and burn.
