Øystein Lunde Ingvaldsen - My friend Øystein is a brilliant photographer, musician and teacher. He is much sought after by TV-stations, and latest he told me that National Geographic had called him. We can't wait to hear how that plays out. Øystein lives in what msut be described as one of the most beautiful places in The Entire World: Bø (Boe) in Vesteraalen. That paired with Øysteins talent for capturing the nature out there through a camera lens makes for some breathtaking photos.


BryanEL (Musician/Composer)- My friend, and must I say, Musical Genius. Visit his homepage and do him a big favor, buy his records. You won't regret it! They have inspired me all the way through making this blog!

Elizabeth Elming (Singer/Songwriter) - My friend, Elizabeth Elming has got a voice that makes your heart reverberate! Visit her homepage and listen to her voice! Rich, sensual and crystal clear with a warmth that totally blows you away! You'll never think about the term "singing" the same way again, after having heard Elizabeth - "The Golden Voice of Canada". Enjoy!

Améthyste Lyne Langdeau-Spardel Améthyste sings like an angel - or at least like I imagine an angel would sing - had I ever met one.
She's got a fabulous voice that just must have been created back in time with a very generous pinch of divine inspiration and talent sprinkled over her vocal cords, enabling her sending the very essence of her through her songs to all of  us around the globe!

Améthyste has released 3 albums on iTunes.

Kjetil Karlsen (Photographic Artist) -My friend Kjetil is a true master of Photography. Just as much as they are paint strokes and moods of the extrovert world they are also journeys to the introvert universe - question marks in time and space. Kjetil writes "A sensing photo artist. I regard myself as a photographer that conveys feelings. It is the feelings we humans posses - bad or good"
 
Jack Lihaug (Photographic Artist) - My friend Jack lives in Bø i Vesterålen (Boe in Vesteraalen). It is a really beautiful part of Norway (my favorite by far!) And beautiful scenery paired with Jack's magic touch with the camera, produces some amazing and fantastic results. Please click on Jack's name to go to his Facebook Timeline and enjoy the fantastic photos he presents regularly!
