Once again, I found myself at Svartån. But this time it was morning and I had a chance to shoot the creek upstream. Streaming water is always better when viewing it upstreams, except at the moment of course there’s not a lot of water left in the creek. I’ll take the beautiful morning sun and red cliffs instead!
From Svartån, I drove the freshly paved road from Rullbo to Fågelsjö. It was a real joy, they’ve been working on this for the past two years and there were times when I avoided the road because it was so hard on the car to drive. But no such problems now, getting to Fågelsjö has never been this fast!
There’s a couple of places I’ve been looking on the map for a while now, and today was a perfect opportunity to check them in real life. The first one was even better than I expected – I’ll be definitely coming back here, there are lots of photo opportunities but my timing wasn’t the best possible. But I got some keepers anyway, which is all the better because the second spot turned out to be inaccessible – the road was closed.
The biggest disappointment of the day was that I didn’t bring a thermos and some cakes with me. I can’t imagine a better place to enjoy a cup of coffee than those warm rocks on the shores of the Fågelsjö lake… next time I’ll have more than just the camera in the bag!
