Website re-design

Posted on June 13th, 2011

My website features a beautiful new background designed by the great designer and photographer Jesse Speer. I loved the old desert background but felt like a change, I wanted a new background featuring faces and places from my recent images and radiate life and warmth. Jesse Speer again delivered magic and I love the new background. It is a bit more busy but is much more where my photography is now. We also decided to just go with a tiny text logo with my name and let the site and my work speak for itself. Jesse calls it an anti-logo and I like it very much. Have a look at www.flemmingbojensen.com Remember to also checkout the Recent Work and Portfolio: People and Portfolio:Landscapes galleries.…

The Tale of King George Falls

Posted on May 29th, 2011

The location is the Kimberley in Western Australia after a record setting wet season.. The scene is the mighty King Georg Falls. The falls are twin 85 meter tall waterfalls with spray rising to well over 120 meters in the air. The air being pushed away by the waterfall is so severe it feels like being in a storm. Add the True North and the scene is set for True North Mark, David Bettini, and yours truly to experience and capture epicness. As Mark, Dave and I arrived at the scene in a tender boat we were challenged by mother nature to take in this spectacle of such grand proportions. This is captured from the tender boat just as we had first contact. Read…

Fuji X100 Street Photography in Copenhagen

Posted on May 23rd, 2011

Not many cameras have created the immense hype, buzz and excitement like the Fuji X100. I had my first taste using my friend Christian Fletcher’s Fuji camera a few weeks ago and instantly fell in love with it. Finally a camera that feels like shooting with a rangefinder, for years and years I have been waiting for someone to produce an affordable digital rangefinder with optical viewfinder. I am now home in Copenhagen and the lucky owner of my own Fuji X100 and wish to present some of my first images and notes on using the camera. I attempted to capture a less seen side of Copenhagen.

Forever Changing Part II

Posted on May 7th, 2011

Months ago I wrote Forever Changing, this post is a continuation. It is also inspired by my friend and Jedi brother Christian Fletcher and his great recent post about Art Photography. I recommend reading it and the comments, a great discussion about pushing ourselves and art to a new level, click here to read it. I will also feature a few of my recent images in this post. I have been on a two year inner and outer journey and myself and my photography has changed completely. I have lived outside my comfort zone for long stretches of time to push myself. I no longer have any interest in banal pretty landscapes. I love shooting people, I love shooting abstract arty landscapes, I love…

Star stuff

Posted on April 29th, 2011

“We are made of star stuff” – the late great Carl Sagan. We are indeed. The very molecules of our body are traceable to the beginning of our galaxy, we are atomically connected to the universe. Very cool is it not. Bringing me to this image: A few weeks ago I had a sleepless night. I watched Watchmen and Contact (remarkably good but book is better) and I created a planet in Photoshop, the above composite. I borrowed the Earth from NASA. I added a foreground from Death Valley, an orange dusk light and mountain from Namibia and sprinkled it with the stars from Very Large Array (where most of Contact takes place) in New Mexico and created the grossly scientifically inaccurate ‘Star Stuff’.…

Hot off the press and upcoming books

Posted on April 27th, 2011

An update of what has been happening over the past couple of weeks. I have had time to do a lot of updating on my website and have started my book project. In the midst of selecting images for my photo books I stumbled upon this image from Papua New Guinea. The boys are standing in the shade of a palm tree so in exposing for the shadows, the sunny ocean and sky is completely blown out leading to a nice effect: Here is what is either hot off the press or soon to come:

Cloud catching in the Kimberley

Posted on April 19th, 2011

Sometimes I look at the clouds and knowing the science behind the saturated air, I still must wonder like a young child: Where are they made? And how does Mother Nature make them so effortlessly beautiful? The Kimberley in Western Australia in the wet season was like a secret gathering of cloud-creator gods. Every day provided us with new artful and beautiful creations and I present a few for you fellow cloud appreciators.

Hunter River

Posted on April 4th, 2011

The morning is warm and humid. There is little wind and the sun has yet to rise. The colours are soft and gentle. A most beautiful and special feeling it is to be here. It is the mighty Hunter River of the Kimberley, Western Australia and home to one of my favourite images from our epic two weeks of True North adventure. Captured a short time after sunrise, I like the gentleness of this image. The faded colours, the ancient majestic Kimberley rocks and the soft palette of blues in the clouds. This is a single image with moderate processing and a slight texture. Featuring a soft gentle look and muted colours it won’t fare well on the internet I fear, but I like…
