Up Town Kids.

These are the children living on one of the highest places in the Philippines. We went to a 2 day hike in Benguet last July and along the way we met the locals living on the edge of the mountains. I talked to some of the few people living there about their way of living. They are literally hundreds of miles away from the nearest the city. They have no electricity, no smartphones or any electronic gadgets but these kids were having so much fun playing around with their very simple toy, a wood with a wheel on the other end.

Into The Woods



Did you know that the Lumia 1020 can capture infrared images? This was shot with a 720 nm IR pass filter during my trip to Southern California in July. My friend and I wanted to go to Mishe Mokwa Trail to Sandstone Peak but couldn't find the location. This shot made the journey worth it for me. Edited in Fhotoroom.

Some background on infrared photography: Infrared or IR photography harnesses light that is invisible to the human eye. Objects that emit or reflect IR light, such as living things, appear white while those that do not, such as the sky or still water, look black. You can test your camera's sensitivity to IR with a remote control. Point the control at the camera and hit some buttons. If a white or red dot appears on the camera we, you're good to go. You'll also need an IR pass filter to block visible light and allow only IR light through. Because of how many cameras process colours in IR images, they are well suited for conversion to black and white.

In September 2013 my choir from Sweden performed a short tour in Crimea, Ukraine. While in Yalta, we stayed at the enormous Intourist Hotel by the Black Sea. I was standing in the main entrance looking out over the parking lot fiddling with my camera settings when a busload of tourists arrived and the picture composed itself.

This was only a few months before the Crimean crisis and it was a strange feeling watching all the peaceful places we had visited crowded with soldiers and protestors.

I used a Lumia 800 and tweaked the contrast a bit in Iphoto on my Mac.

A quick photoshoot made on august in the Etreta's streets (France) with a Nokia 1020. I used Picsart app only.

I took this image using my Lumia 1520's Nokia Camera's Smart Mode while my partner and I were driving down a scenic byway in Wisconsin. Sadly, after cropping (didn't want to show the car dash), the picture wasn't as high resolution as I wanted. However, the movement of the scene and the motorcycle itself was captured very well. I used Adobe PhotoShop Express to adjust the contrasts and colors before applying a black and white filter.

This is a photo of an eerily desolate Bologna train station. The station is one of the busiest in Italy, and it was unusually quiet (and empty!) on this occasion. I think black and white suits the atmosphere well

Taken using my Nokia Lumia 925

"Lonely Ghost"
Shot with Nokia Camera using Nokia Panorama App. Then converted to Black & White using Photo Shop Elements leaving color outside the window. I used the Panorama app trying to get some kind of weird, unintended effect. Where the two photos combined, I got a see through ghost effect, purely accidental.

On a cloudy evening after a few branches were cut off the trees, got a clear view of this house. This picture i thought would be perfect for black and white and so edited with creative studio.

I went to Starbucks and while I was enjoying my Frappuccino, I saw in my head that I could have a pic. Pulled out my 1020 and shooted. I liked it when I B&W it

A family friend and local farmer devised a plan to honor those men and women that were fallen from the state of WI since 9/11 with a flag for each service member lost. My brother is one of those fallen. Each holiday these flags get displayed and each year, many of those flags need replacing. We get together each year to help with the replacement, mowing, and general cleanup of the area. His old truck is used to carry and mount the flags. I saw this photo opp of the old truck looking down the row of flags and snapped a color photo (later edited to B&W) with my Lumia 928. The sticker on the back of the cab adds a nice touch that speaks volumes!
