Motive - / - Roy M.'s photostream
|

I am a Norwegian Amateur Photographer, living in the Western parts of Norway. Through photography I try to express the unique beauty and customs of the country I love so much. I have been on to Flickr since October 2007 and I have got to know a lot of great people here. I am a wheelchair shooter and I photograph my next ideas as it comes to me. I like to experiment a lot. Please feel free to give your comment both positive and negative critics is allowed.
Thank you for visiting.
Please don't add me in your contact's list if you aren't interested in my photos. If you don’t have an active photostream I will block you.
All images are available as prints or any other usage. I suggest that anyone interested in buying them should drop me a line. If you intend to use any of my pictures, whether it's for monetary gain or use on your website or any other usage, PLEASE, you need to contact me first before you use any of them.

scottnj says:
"I have had the pleasure to know Roy here on Flickr for several months now. Roy has a deep appreciation for nature and his photos reflect that. I look forward everyday to seeing Roy's latest work.
My only complaint about Roy's work is that by the time I get to see his latest photo he already had 70+ comments and I have trouble finding something complimentary to say that already hasn't been said.
If you have not done so already add Roy to your contacts, you will not be sorry to see his latest photos when you open Flickr everyday.
Roy, keep up the good work my friend! :)"9th November, 2008

"For those of you who do not know Roy / Motive, let me just say
that you have been missing out on some of the most beautiful pictures on flickr!!! He has such a deep appreciation for the natural world. He shows us beauty, that perhaps, we may just walk right past without notice. It is his eye for details, finding wonderful lighting, and searching for the perfect composition, that make him a true artist.
I am so proud to call him friend...he inspires me daily. He is very
supportive and kind, and I look forward to his comments. He is proud of his country, his family, and pets...all with good reason, they are all so beautiful!!! Thank you Roy, you are a ray of sunshine in my day!!!! ;-)
Your friend,
Tracy"10th November, 2008

Mervyn Hector says:
"I cannot imagine Flickr without Roy! He contributes all the time and is very creative. Roy has a variety of masterpieces and has captured something that everyone will like. He has a fantastic eye for photography and always ready to comment on one's work with sensitivity! Roy is a true flickr buddy who by his comments encourages one all the time. His motivation inspires one to do better. He is a soul of kindness with a sense of humour and always sees the funny side of life! Roy was really the first viewer to look kindly at my earlier work and my first contact! I have therefore benefitted tremendously by his encouragement. Many kilometres may seperate us but will not seperate him as my friend!"
