April In Norway

Over the next month until mid-may I have the honor of helping Floris Smeets run a photography tour focusing on caputring pictures of Black Grouse and Capercaillie. I expect this will be one of the biggest months ever for my artistic development and hopefully give me new ways of seeing the world.
