Northern Norway 2011 Photo Gallery by Roy Birger Nilsen at pbase.com

Northern Norway 2011

A gallery from our too short vacation in the north this summer.
The vacation was cut short by the tragic events in Utøya outside Oslo where we lost
a family member by the hand of the insane killer that killed so many children there.
These pictures are taken after we knew he was there and missing,but before he was found. His
name was Kevin and he only lived to be 15 years old.These images are maybe my attempt to
find beauty in a world that seemed so ugly at the time.
For me to separate my photography from my life is impossible,it is what I do.

Nydelig galleri og et perfekt tilbakeblikk på en sommer som inneholdt så mye av naturens skjønnhet og samtidig så mye menneskelig kulde og ondskap.
