Out and About – Street Photography

Here are a number of images of people out and about doing the mundane or the unusual that caught my interest. This “street photography” isn’t intended to be artistic, rather I hope each capture tells some sort of story. Most images include people but a few are just a strange or interesting (to me) tableaux that presented itself.

I am an amateur photography enthusiast living in Oslo, Norway. My favourite subjects tend to be landscapes and nature - but I enjoy capturing urban scenes, architecture, abstract shapes and street art as well.
