Norwind Storm at Work

Out in the North Sea, the Norwind Storm is a familiar sight—steady, purposeful, and always where the work is. These iPhone images capture the vessel alongside the offshore substation, with the wind turbines fading into the haze and the low sun throwing golden light across the water.

From the deck or framed against the open horizon, the Storm stands as a reminder of the constant effort behind the offshore wind industry. The scale of the operation is immense, yet moments like these bring out its quiet beauty.

Vessel Operations Offshore

Out in the North Sea, the Norwind Storm support vessel takes position beneath the setting sun, a steady presence against the rolling water. These iPhone images capture both the vessel itself and its role within the offshore wind environment — working alongside turbine structures and platforms.

The offshore environment always provides striking contrasts, especially when captured in black and white. This series adds to my Wind Industry collection, alongside wider work across Industrial and Places photography.

Fog creeping in.

Hello, here are some images of the fog slowly creeping in, over the windfarm.

The fog approaches like a soft whisper, gradually swallowing the horizon. The wind turbines, once clear and imposing, begin to fade into the mist, their outlines becoming ghostly silhouettes

The Edda Brint, SOV (service operations vessel) adjacent to our substation.

Housing 60 persons, the 60 PAX will be made up with the ships crew and technicians who are servicing the turbines.

The Wind Cat CTV (crew transfer vessel) This vessel is our daily transport to and from shore.

As the fog thickens, the turbines seem to float in mid-air, their blades slicing through the mist with a gentle, rhythmic motion. This ethereal scene creates a stark contrast between the solid structures and the ephemeral fog.
