Installing and testing the system for next week’s exhibition. Opening Saturday, 22 August at 12:00. A great day spent solving problems, building spaces, and working alongside Axel Rios.

As this year and the magic of its journey come to a close, I want to wish you a warm season shaped by memories and care for one another. In moments that ask us to part, I hope we keep choosing to stay human, together. Safe travels, home. #photography

Connecting the image with a short series on what it takes to keep old dreams alive, tracing the ripples of how policy decisions shape everyday life—for the many, and for the few.

With the town’s budget due next week, this scan from the project reflects a scar in local lore: a space once intended to be a public swimming pool, now facing uncertain times. #photography

I keep wondering how the choice of full or partial bleed can shape tension within a body of work. I still struggle with this approach, feeling the need to respect the edges that images create. I would love to hear how others approach this. #photography

The slight off‑centre placement in the last post changed how the image settled in the space. Small movements can alter how a picture breathes, reminding me that flow is shaped by where an image begins and ends. Experimenting how far we can push our own boundaries while letting the work remain open.

After last week’s post on duality, I’ve been drawn to how layout choices can carry a quiet pull. Working with partial bleeds, I find myself resisting the urge to lock the edit into structure, while still keeping the image held in place. The edges can guide the reading, shifting the weight on a page.

#Photography reminds me that a slight change in where we stand can reveal a new angle on the same tension. Two frames may hold different truths, yet still converge around what binds the space, a tension that belongs both to the protagonist, and author.

Standing before a fence, I think about the duality of man. Two surfaces differ, yet both draw the eye toward the space between them. The greys shift, and what once felt solid begins to soften at the edges. #photography

I thought it would be fun to try something different. Instead of single posts, I’ll share a short series from one film roll. It’s an interesting exercise, trying to edit a narrative of tension within the limits of 36 frames. I’m searching to connects valleys and peaks within those boundaries.

Thank you for the kindness. It’s a different mindset, searching for the tension in color.

Flakse: a Norwegian word for the gentle flutter of wings, a brief movement that disturbs still air. It is how space shifts, how light adjusts, how small moments can carry the weight of our times. Within frames, we try to hold these quiet shifts, shaping how we see. #photography

Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed. The shipyard changed and the frame shifted. And still, something carries forward, over the water. I wonder, will this space find a new rhythm, and another way to bridge the gap.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 25/10/2025

Perhaps this challenge is part of what keeps the process alive. Reflecting on new perspectives disturbs old habits, inviting another way of seeing what was always there. In these crossings, between direction and form, the narrative quietly continues.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 25/10/2025

For years, I have worked almost entirely in the vertical. It has shaped how I see and informs a narrative. Turning the frame sideways feels like unlearning a language. The tension shifts, and balance begins to ask a different why.

Poetry isn’t an island, it is the bridge. Poetry isn’t a ship, it is the lifeboat. Poetry isn’t swimming. Poetry is water. - Kamand Kojouri It reminds me that the work is not only about structure but connection. A bridge, like a frame, invites passage of the heart.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 25/10/2025

While editing, I’ve been curious about how the shapes of bridges inform silent transitions. They carry our weight and connections, yet always steadfast and grounded. Maybe a frame can act in the same way, bridging the past with the present.

Reflecting on this corner, to challenge the fixed. The road bends toward the cruise port and the old shipyard, now a staging ground for oil and gas platforms. Once, ships were built here. The landscape has changed, but the rhythm remains. It is where the town meets the deep dark coldness of the sea.

The tension of the moment sits closer to the surface, raising the question of whether proximity sharpens truth or distance clarifies it. In both cases, time becomes the quiet unifier, binding the act of capture with the act of reflection.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 17/10/2025

For seven years I kept a one‑year pause between photographing and developing. It began as an exercise in patience, a way to see with clearer eyes. That rhythm has shifted within our exploratory course at Oxford Brooks, where the process now unfolds within shorter phases.

«What makes photography a strange invention is that its primary raw materials are light and time.» — John Berger. This thought has stayed with me as I’ve worked to understand how time itself edits, removing what once felt urgent and revealing the core of what remains.

Working through contact sheets makes time visible. Each frame carries not only light but also the experience between capture and return. Editing becomes a part of listening to the delay, where distance settles into memory and attention enhances what remains. #photography

To both walk and look again is not to repeat. It is to listen more closely, attuned to the project, and to see how the anchor continues to shape understanding of the world we live in and the passage of our time within it.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 10/10/2025

Dorothea Lange once asked Ralph Gibson, “What is your point of departure?” That question stayed with him. The anchor sharpens this departure, steadying fragments of discovery into dialogue.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 10/10/2025

Searching for reflections and layers, folding time into the surface of the image. What was once only an observation becomes a question of memory, of how distance, light, and change alter meaning with each return.

Trond @trondfroestad.com · 10/10/2025

These early images hold the weight of beginnings. They recall the first walks, without an anchor, when seeing was uncertain and each pause offered a new way to understand both space and self.
