Mountains are calling & I must go! Let’s wander where the Wi-Fi is weak & the trails are steep.
Adventure awaits!
Jason Roberts is a photographer who threw himself back into the art like a man escaping a burning building. No plan, no roadmap, just a camera and a hunger for something real. Oregon is his stomping ground: mountains that bleed into the sky, rivers that rage like drunk gods, and ghost towns crumbling under the weight of time. That’s where his lens points, not at the polished, the staged, or the safe, but at the raw nerve of the world.
Roberts walked away from photography once, swallowed by the static of daily life, but he came back swinging. The camera became his weapon and salvation, a way to wrestle order from chaos and bring back proof that the wild is still out there kicking. Every shot is a field report: lightning storms stitched over the Three Sisters, deer skulls strung up in hunting camps, forests whispering secrets in the dark.
Through Nerdy Viking Photography, Roberts keeps driving down back roads, chasing storms, and crawling into the forgotten corners of the Pacific Northwest. His work is part survival note, part love letter, part battle cry. A reminder that beauty isn’t gentle, it’s feral, and you have to step off the map to find it.

HMM Day 28 – The Descent
I have been married for about twelve years and one thing my wife do is often times watch television in separate rooms. We just like watching different things and that is quite alright. It is always a good thing when two people can live together and still be able to enjoy their own shit. But… Read more

HMM Day 29 – Alien
By the time the groovy seventies came rolling through, I would say most alien horror films were always kind of tame. Silver Age horror tapped into the fear of extra terrestrial life and gave us some good films like 1951’s The Thing From Another World and then The Blob. Those movies aren’t all too scary… Read more
