Akkurat i dag skal en blog artikkel fra meg handle om noe annet enn naturfoto. Den skal handle om menneskelige relasjoner,\u00a0om respekt, likeverd\u00a0og\u00a0aksept. Det er skeive dager i Oslo denne uka, for de som ikke aner hva skeive dager er, s\u00e5 er det en tilstelning for homofile, lesbiske, bifile og transpersoner. Det begynte med \u00e5pningen av Pride house i litteraturhuset sist l\u00f8rdag, konserter og i morgen er det \u00e5pning av Pride Park i spikersuppa. Her er det mye show, konserter, diskusjoner, forelesninger. I kveld gikk hagekonserten til Aksept senteret av stabelen. S\u00e5 mye som 1200 mennesker m\u00f8tte opp i hagen til Aksept. Vi ble servert en flott aften med mange gode ut\u00f8vere. Oslo Fagotkor og Anita Skorgan sto h\u00f8yt p\u00e5 lista av mine favoritter.<\/p>\n

Aksept er senteret for HIV positive, her har de et fristed hvor ford\u00f8mmelse ikke finnes.<\/p>\n

En mann fortalte om familien sin som ikke lenger ville ha ham hos seg julaften, for de var redde for \u00e5 bli smittet. Han fortalte om hvor forferdelig s\u00e5rt det var \u00e5 bli utst\u00f8tt av sin egen familie, utst\u00f8tt av mor, utst\u00f8tt av far. Og dette skjer i Norge i 2012. I \u00e5r har han v\u00e6rt tidlig ute med \u00f8nskelisten, og den handlet om at han \u00f8nsket at hans foreldre kunne klare \u00e5 akseptere ham slik han var, selv om han var homofil og hadde v\u00e6rt s\u00e5 uheldig \u00e5 f\u00e5 hiv. Jeg lar meg ber\u00f8re av slike historier.<\/p>\n

Generelt er det fremdeles vanskelig \u00e5 v\u00e6re annerledes i det norske samfunnet, selv om vi har kommet veldig langt p\u00e5 vei. Det er fremdeles vanskelig for noen foreldre \u00e5 akseptere at deres s\u00f8nn eller datter kommer hjem og forteller at de er homofile eller lesbiske. Det er fremdeles t\u00f8ft \u00e5 komme ut av skapet. Det handler om aksept, det handler om \u00e5 bli akseptert av sine egne.\u00a0Hadde foreldre ant hvor mye f\u00f8lelsesmessig smerte de p\u00e5f\u00f8rer sitt barn ved ikke \u00e5 akseptere ham eller henne som den personen barnet er, hadde de kanskje forst\u00e5tt og akseptert. Dessverre er det ikke alle som skj\u00f8nner eller vil innse det.\u00a0Det \u00e5 ikke bli akseptert av sine egne foreldre for den man er, \u00a0st\u00e5r for meg som noe av det verste som kan skje en person. Det g\u00e5r p\u00e5 selvf\u00f8lelsen og selvtilliten l\u00f8s. Kanskje derfor er det fremdeles m\u00f8rketall p\u00e5 selvmordsfronten blant unge, jeg bare lurer, undrer over at en\u00a0seksuell legning\u00a0som for noen er veldig naturlig ikke skal bli akseptert.<\/p>\n

S\u00e5 dere som har en s\u00f8nn eller datter som er litt annerledes, eller kanskje du er venn med en som er litt annerledes, eller kanskje du bare vet om noen som er litt annerledes, aksepter dem, tilbring litt tid sammen, kanskje har mennesket dypere skatter enn du aner. Og kanskje livet ditt blir rikere. Hvem vet?<\/p>\n

Her er noen bilder fra \u00e5rets hagekonsert:<\/p>\n

Through my lens, I seek more than just images. I seek presence. I believe photography is not only about what we see, but how we see \u2014 how we meet the world with open eyes and a quiet mind. For me, photography is a way of listening. A form of mindfulness. A practice of stillness and wonder. I\u2019m also a globetrotter at heart. I love traveling and discovering new places with my camera \u2013 from quiet corners of nature to vibrant city streets. My blog reflects this love for exploring, with stories and photographs gathered along the way. Each journey deepens my appreciation for light, texture, and the way places speak if we take the time to listen. I photograph with both DSLR and iPhone, always guided by what moves me rather than by gear or trends. I created this space to share moments that speak, not shout. Images that invite you to pause. To feel. To breathe. Whether you\u2019re a fellow photographer or someone simply seeking calm in a noisy world, I hope you\u2019ll find something here that resonates. When I\u2019m not behind the camera, I write about mindful photography, run a Norwegian photo community called Se Utover, and create courses that combine creativity, presence, and personal growth.
