Betania is a small fishing village on the western

Betania is a small fishing village on the western coast of Madagascar, where life revolves around the ocean. Every morning, fishermen head out to sea in their traditional wooden canoes, while the village comes alive with the daily activities of families waiting along the shore. These images are a small glimpse into the daily life of Betania, where the ocean is not just a beautiful backdrop, but an essential part of the community’s livelihood, culture, and identity.

If you’ve known me for a while, you probably know that I’ve been photographing churches since my time living in Sweden many years ago. Over the years, I’ve built a collection of church interior images from around the world. I’ve brought together a selection of these images in this portfolio eBook.

Aerial image of Yilki wild horses in Cappadocia, Turkiye. Yilki wild horses have been domesticated for over a millennium in the Anatolia region, also known as Asia Minor, which constitutes a significant portion of contemporary Turkiye. Taming wild horses for agricultural and transportation purposes has been a necessity since ancient times in Turkey. Remarkably, this tradition still endures today among Turkish villagers, albeit primarily for tourism purposes.

Black and white photography is not something I usu

Black and white photography is not something I usually do, but this dramatic mountain landscape in the Dolomites, Italy, photographed yesterday, seemed like the perfect subject for a monochrome image. Known as the “Pale Mountains,” the Dolomites were once submerged beneath the ancient Tethys Sea around 250 million years ago, where tropical marine environments helped form these magnificent rock formations. Today, they are famous for the enrosadira phenomenon, when the peaks glow pink and orange at sunrise and sunset. Yet, sometimes removing the colors reveals an entirely different beauty, highlighting the dramatic textures, contrasts, and timeless character of these ancient mountains.

Verreaux’s sifaka, native to Madagascar, is amon

Verreaux’s sifaka, native to Madagascar, is among many animal species that utilize body odors and secretions to communicate with conspecifics by rubbing against objects in their environment, a behavior known as scent-marking. This behavior serves various functions such as territorial demarcation, resource ownership, mate attraction, non-combative conflict resolution, and self-promotion. While scent-marking is commonly associated with carnivores, it is also observed in numerous other mammals including felids, monkeys, bears, wolves, and marmots.

The aerial view of Hanksville’s badlands look almost extraterrestrial, but their story reaches deep into Earth’s past. This region of Utah is rich in Jurassic-age rocks and dinosaur fossils, with important fossil sites found in the surrounding desert. Millions of years of erosion have carved the soft sedimentary layers into these intricate ridges, channels and valleys. Flying above them reveals a landscape that feels both prehistoric and otherworldly, a glimpse into the terrain of Utah’s famous dinosaur country.

Mount Otertind in Arctic Norway is known as “The

Mount Otertind in Arctic Norway is known as “The Matterhorn of the Arctic,” famous for its dramatic double-pyramid silhouette reminiscent of Switzerland’s Matterhorn. Although the mountain had appeared in paintings and photographs since the 1800s, its first recorded ascent did not take place until 1911, when German climbers Kurd Endell and Wilhelm Martin reached the summit.

Reindeer at Kujala Reindeer Farm in Finland. The farm dates back to 1860, with reindeer herding passed down through generations of the Kujala family for more than 160 years. Reindeer are an iconic part of life in northern Finland. The country is home to around 200,000 reindeer, the vast majority of which live in the northern reindeer-herding region. Most are semi-domesticated, they belong to herders but spend much of the year roaming and grazing freely across forests and fells.

From the sky, Iceland’s glacial rivers look less

From the sky, Iceland’s glacial rivers look less like a landscape and more like an abstract painting. Their remarkable colors come from crushed rock. As glaciers move, they grind the bedrock beneath them into extremely fine sediment known as glacial flour. Meltwater carries these tiny particles downstream, creating striking shades of milky blue, gray, turquoise, yellow, and brown, depending on the minerals, sediment concentration, and light. No paint, no canvas. Just ice, water, minerals, and time, with Earth as the artist.

The Tsaatan people, nomadic reindeer herders livin

The Tsaatan people, nomadic reindeer herders living deep in the taiga of northern Mongolia, have a way of life closely intertwined with their reindeer herds. Reindeer are trained for riding from around the age of two. At first, they are ridden mainly by children, as young reindeer are not yet strong enough to carry an adult. By the age of three, they are generally strong enough for adults to ride as well. During seasonal migrations, male reindeer can carry loads of around 40 kg, while females typically carry up to 30 kg. Remarkably adapted to the harsh northern climate, reindeer thrive in cold weather and move easily through deep snow. Using their broad hooves, they dig through the snow to uncover lichen and other vegetation hidden beneath the surface.
