Månad: oktober 2014


  • There are some huge willow trees by the lake close to the office. They’re no good for autumn colours like the aspen were yesterday, but the bark has interesting detail regardless of season.

  • Funny how you sometimes discover something new although it has been right in front of you for years. And years. We have this row of Swedish columnar aspen (yes, ”Swedish” is actually part of the name) outside the office and I walk past every time I go out to lunch. But not until today did…

  • I had been worried that the birds don’t like my feeder setup in the forest but it just apparently took some time, because now I’m seeing a lot of traffic there. I had my first photo session in full camo gear but I shouldn’t have bothered with the camo because the first bird very nearly…

Or actually, strictly speaking, this is not a flood yet. It just a high water level, but not high enough to cause any trouble. Yet. It didn’t rain today…

  • Doesn’t it just make you so excited about the prospects for weekend photography?

  • It has been raining all day. In fact, it has been raining ever since I got back from Iceland, apart from yesterday. I drove past Laforsen yesterday and the floodgates were wide open, we are getting close to flooding. Every time I thought that I would go out for a walk, it seemed like the rain…
