Røros & Helvete Analogue Photography Workshop 2025
UNESCO World Heritage Site Røros, cloaked in its finest winter splendour, is a photographer’s dream. The old mining town, the landscape, and old industrial facilities offer exciting and varied photographic opportunities. At the river gorge Helvete, in Espedalen, you will encounter the largest glacial potholes (giant's kettles) in Northern Europe, adorned with icicles and other fascinating ice formations. During a seven-day photo workshop, you will have the opportunity to soak up what Røros and Helvete have to offer – and to develop your skills in analogue photography with a group of like-minded people. [Røros and Espedalen January 27 – February 2, 2025]
Read MoreA closer look at Vardø in Finnmark, Norway.
In 2019, 2021 and 2022 I had the opportunity to visit Vardø, which is a community at the extreme northeast of Norway.
I brought my Mamiya 6MF and Fuji GSW 680iii cameras and a bunch of Ilford black & white films for the trips.

Hvaler – an arhipelago of rock slopes and potholes
Hvaler – previously named Hvaløerne (“Whale islands”) is famous for its unique landscape. All over the islands of Hvaler you can observe how the glacier of the last ice age shaped the landscape. You can find potholes and beautiful slope rocks almost everywhere.
After four years of work, I am happy to publish some of my works from Hvaler. I have been working both with 8x10 large format camera and a 6x6 medium format camera. Images are recorded on Ilford FP4+, Ilford SFX 200 and Ilford Delta 100.
