It has been some long and exiting days in Holmenkollen. Here are some fresh photos that I have taken the last two days. Tomorrow awaits a 14-hour day in Holmenkollen. Time to sleep. If you want to check out behind the scenes-photos of the team of Scanpix-photographers, go to bloggpix.
Day two for me in Holmenkollen. Here is a selection of photos I took to day when Norway's Petter Northug won a gold medal in the 30km cross country skiing for men. In the showcase is some photos that newspapers seldom publish, but I think is interesting.
After a week of being news picture editor at Scanpix, I was sent up to Holmenkollen in Oslo to cover the World Ski Championship with other photographers from Scanpix. It's cool to be a part of a team where everybody have dedicated tasks. At the finish line I stood with a 400 f/2.8 and a ethernet-cable connected directly to my camera for live publishing. Cool stuff. Here are some of my photos from Holmenkollen covered in fog. The remote was set up be me and a colleague and fired by the guy standing closest to the finish line.
After 18 days on the road I have come back to Oslo to finish up the project. 15 interviews have been recorded and I have five to go. Akershus, Hedmark, Østfold, Oslo and Svalbard is left on the list before I can start with the edit.
