Surprisingly, it wasn’t raining this morning. I didn’t care, I just simply wasn’t inspired to photograph anything or look for flowers, just wanted to go home. As usual when I make a hasty exit from Funäsdalen, I took the scenic route via Sörvattnet and Lofsdalen. I have been eyeing the old pine roots on one stretch of the road for a long time and shook myself out of the slump to finally photograph them. Even as I was walking around and framing the roots in different compositions, I was thinking about using the Orton technique on the images and even – gulp – converting them to B&W since the subject itself is very greyscale. I don’t think it’s all bad, but I can’t decide whether I prefer it to the colour version or not. I am so rooted in colour photography…
