There’s this lake I pass every day on the way to work (and back). I always check what it looks like, and many times it looks really nice. In the morning it can be mirror calm with some mist. In the evening the small island in the middle of the lake can be glorious in…

My cabin is shaping up nicely. There are only two major jobs remaining and I have a reliable guy to do them and then it’s pretty much done, actually. There are a few minor things that I have to take care of myself, but then again, a cabin owner’s job is never done. Most of…

It was great weather on Monday evening. I was looking through the bus window towards a dark cloud behind me, and sunlight in front. An amazing sight and I knew the rainbow would be somewhere there, so I half ran home from the bus, grabbed the camera and drove out. I had to stop at…

The weather forecast said it would be sunny. Right now. I looked outside and the sky was overcast. I had a plan though and I intended to follow it, maybe it would clear out a bit later… so I drove to my spot and found out that I had nothing to do there and the…

Or, Tokina AF 16-28mm f2.8 AT-X Pro SD FX as it’s officially called (I’ll just call it ”Tokina” in the rest of the post, I’m sure you understand why…). This is the new lens in my bag, when I finally gave in and got the wideangle I had been long wanting and long dreading! Used on…

Spent the weekend at the cabin, and managed to waste most of it on putting together Ikea furniture. 8 hours on a wardrobe, and we were two people working on it! It would’ve been impossible alone. But… there was this one photo session that was worth the trip alone. Full moon rising just before sunset!…

Ever since last year when we did some driving around in Orsa Finnmark, I’ve been wanting to go back to explore the places. Last year it was late autumn and the weather was a bit iffy so I didn’t really stop anywhere, just made mental notes about the places we drove through. Well today, the…

So the exhibition is now open for public! I’d lie if I said it was a crowd magnet, but the (very) positive thing is that the few people did come also liked the pictures. Co-incidentally, the Ljusdal camera club was holding an open-air exhibition in town which was a lucky break for me, because the…

Ever since January when I agreed to put together an exhibition, I’ve been in pains to select the images to use. I decided to go with my blog name, and then tried to select the quietest pictures of the bunch to represent the style that’s closest to my heart. But now it’s all done, the…

Finally taking a closer look at my vacation pictures. Found one HDR which needed processing, did it manually because I didn’t like the result that any HDR software produced. It still needs some work but I’m undecided if it’s worth the trouble. I was waiting on Flatruet for the sunset to happen with glorious colours,…
