As a hobby photographer, it is mostly during the weekends that I am able to play around with my camera and my computer. During the weekdays, work and other social\u00a0responsibilities normally take up too much time to really spend some hours just clicking.<\/p>\n

I happen to live near the cost, and while enjoying a sunny -1 degrees\u00a0Celsius, I walked down to a beach called “Elleskj\u00e6r” near me.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>

The usual suspects greeted me when I got down to the beach. They were alert though and flew away when I tried to get a bit closer.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Tracked\"<\/a>

I tracked them, but as most of you know, seagulls are capable of escaping in 3 ways; walking, swimming and flying. I was prepared to engage in only one of those activities.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Print\"<\/a>

A seasoned tracker could probably tell the sex or something like that from this print. All I can tell is that it most probably was a bird that can swim. And most likely a seagull.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Row<\/a>

During the summer most boats you see are slick, big, fast motor powered boats. During the winter the "real" men are out using other means of propulsion.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Whiteout\"<\/a>

The sun got down to my height after a while, and the snow almost went totally white.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Into<\/a>

It is always nice when the sun shines trough the trees.<\/p><\/div>\n
