lights over greenland, lights in Vancouver


I found magic dust. The biggest treat this past months was seeing the Northern Lights for nearly 2 hours from my window flying over Greenland on the way back to Vancouver. You know those moments that you just turn into a child again and it is all so incredibly perfect just for your eyes to record. It was incredible, more than incredible I am now addicted and would like to go and experience this again. All of the shapes and colors were spectacular.

Back in Vancouver almost the next morning I saw this trough my window at home. No those are no aliens kidnapping the sea bus as I called this image and for the hundreds of people that asked me no there is no photoshop involved. The light is reflecting from the building at the back, going trough the cloud and falling on the water. The bus was just happening to be passing.
So in less than 24 hours I saw lots of incredible light.

Ros and Lee's wedding

British weddings are one of my most favorite things and this one was the last one from our group of friends weddings. Ros and Lee are two of the most amazing, intelligent and well traveled people I know. They are the type of people that you will receive several times a year post cards from the most fascinating places of the world. Their honeymoon was of course not a 5 star resort on the Caribbean but India and Nepal.
We has amazing time, lots of crazy photos and the most importantly for once in the year all of our UK friends in the same spot :)


so many magic things


I thought a lot how to start this entry. A good storyteller always thinks a lot before starting or maybe this is my lame excuse that I forgot about the fun parts of my life one of which is my blog. I will tell you the story of me becoming 30. I was in London with my camera in a sunny day of course there were clouds, the British clouds I love so much. I felt so extremely peaceful walking and taking photographs.. I am happy that after so many years my 30 start with the same passion, the same desire for life, the same love towards images. I am older , I am wiser but I will always have this little line in my head:

I will always look at the stars. I have been repeating recently that there are no impossible things, there is magic, there is so much to live for. You just have to believe in it. So on my birthday I tried to find this little magic moments and record them and had the biggest smile on my face.
