Med et portrett av kameraet til en fotograf fra Uzbekistan, og med to på motivjakt i Bjørvika, og med en artig samtale om fotografi, geografi, løst og fast, og et bevis for at et hei og interesse skaper dialog nesten overalt, ønsker #Oslo en god morgen til alle i hele #Norge :)

Season with snow, serve under a tree I was walking through a park on my way to the bus. A frying pan was sitting in the snow next to a tree. Pan, tree, packed snow.

Street photography does this to you. You start noticing things you'd normally walk past.

His hands never left his pockets A couple show their love for each other outside Oslo Central Station on a cold February night. In a city where public affection is rare, they didn't seem to care.

She held his face close to hers. He kept his hands in his pockets:

A winter country caught off guard It snowed in Oslo. In February. You'd think that would be normal. It isn't anymore.

I didn’t notice until I got home that the autofocus had missed. Sometimes the camera gets it wrong and the image gets it right. The softness turns the scene into something closer to how the moment felt. Cold, windy, uncertain.

Apparently some of them bring furniture An older man boards an Oslo tram carrying a rocking chair and a pair of skis. It might be the most Norwegian photo I've ever taken.

I once tried shooting an entire year in black and white. It didn’t last. In February 2026, I tried again, this time limiting myself to just one month. It resulted in the most Norwegian photo I've ever shot

Snowy night in Oslo: person runs across tram tracks under streetlights, with a glowing ring above the square. The images is out of focus, but not so much that the scene is not visible.

RANGEFINDERFORUM | Photos by siverta Gallery of photos captured with Rangefinder lenses and cameras

Cool! I found my old account on Rangefinderforum from back in the mid00s. Back then I almost exclusively shot range finders and Kodak Tri-X 400. All of of these negatives were stolen when I moved to Oslo in 2010.

Color photo of a snowy city street on a clear winter day. A hooded crow perches on the edge of a small white kiosk in the foreground. People in winter coats stand nearby, and modern buildings line the street under a bright blue sky.

Color photo of a ferry approaching a dock on calm winter water. A hooded crow sits on a metal railing in the foreground. Passengers stand on the ferry’s deck, and a historic brick building and harbour structures are visible in the distance.

Black-and-white night photo of a small tree standing in snow. The trunk and bare branches are lit by flash against a dark background. A frying pan lies on the snow near the base of the tree, creating a quiet, slightly surreal scene.

Black-and-white photo inside a tram or light rail carriage. An elderly person wearing a patterned winter hat sits relaxed in a wooden rocking chair placed in the aisle, one leg crossed. Other passengers sit nearby, including a person with skis and a large backpack. The scene feels quietly surreal within an everyday public transport setting.

Color photo of several hands taping posters to a metal pole at night. The posters advertise the Oslo Street Photo Festival with images, dates, and text. The hands overlap as they smooth the paper into place, with city lights and stickers visible on the pole in the background.

Black-and-white photo taken from ground level, looking up at a modern building façade with rows of square windows. Bare tree branches stretch across the top of the frame against a bright, overexposed sky, creating a stark contrast between rigid architecture and organic lines.

High-contrast black-and-white photo of a large, leafless tree seen from below. The dark trunk rises centrally, with a dense web of twisting branches spreading outward against a bright white sky, forming an intricate, almost abstract pattern.

- Snapchats moralske frikort koster barna våre dyrt - Snapchat «lager ikke reglene», men de velger hvordan de tolker dem, skriver Hans-Petter Nygård-Hansen.

-- Vi trenger et ærlig og skikkelig oppgjør med en plattformøkonomi der barns oppmerksomhet er blitt handelsvare, og der «vi følger bare reglene» har blitt det mest brukte moralske frikortet, skriver Hans-Petter Nygård-Hansen

**ALT-tekst (norsk):**
Skjermbilde av en chat i mørk modus. Øverst vises brukerens melding: «Vibe code med meg. Skriv et program i BASIC som skriver “bananflesk” på skjermen hvert 30 sekund». Under følger et lengre svar som forklarer at det finnes mange BASIC-dialekter. Svaret inneholder to kodeblokker: én med et enkelt BASIC-program som bruker `PRINT "bananflesk"`, `SLEEP 30` og `GOTO 10`, og en annen som viser en alternativ løsning med `TIMER` og en løkke. Teksten beskriver programmet humoristisk som et «bananflesk-orakel» og avsluttes med en metafor om et livslangt drypp av bananflesk som en fruktig metronom.
