Why I’ve been so quiet this last week
As some of you have noticed is that I've been rather quiet on my sosial media accounts this last week with regards to posting images as I've been lately, and there is a reason for it.

RIP STUDIO TOFFA PHOTOGRAPHY 2011-2021
Don’t worry, I’m not dead, dying or terminal ill (at least as I know). So for those of you who were worried about that, rest assured I’m fine. No, what’s dead is the moniker of Studio Toffa Photography (STP).

Fjøløy can be a place of tranquill relax, but also a place of high wind and roar. This image shows one of those sides. Nikon D800, Nikon AF 28mm f2.8D, Formatt Hitech ND…
