I went skiing again. Just couldn’t resist the trails which are in pretty good shape at the moment with what the recent snowfall. Glide was great, too good in fact – wasted a lot of momentum slipping sideways. And my feet are not hurting – much. I just wish I could put the same kind…

Do you think it will melt before midsummer? There’s about 15-20 cm snow on the roof, and it’s still snowing…

It’s starting to feel like Christmas already. The world was white in the morning, and the stuff kept falling all day. The sun sets around 8pm so there was enough light left to take some pictures, which felt a bit weird. Normally in the winter I can only hope that the snow won’t drop off…

The flower photography season is now open – even if these are just buds! But I just couldn’t wait any longer, the snow is dirty and weather is boring but the spring crocus buds are absolutely beautiful. Every day when I come home from work, I pause by the flowers and just look at them,…

It was a fairly good March, actually – maybe not as sunny as you’d expect, but just a decent winter month. Even got a cold spell in the second half, but now in the last few days it seems like spring is coming with a vengeance and the snow is visibly disappearing. The first sign…

This is peak time of the year for auroral activity. It was a clear night and the aurora forecast confirmed the high activity, so I packed the camera and set out to the closest spot with an open view towards north. I finally got some half decent pictures of the northern lights! I tried it…

That’s the kind of a day it was.

I’ve mentioned a few times that I gave up on wildlife photography early on in my photography career. Most of the animal photography I’ve done since then is in zoos – not counting the occasional squirrel, of course! When I lived in Ljusdal, I used to visit Järvzoo quite often. Since I moved to Loos,…

I had a near miss with the squirrels today. (Whether it’s a relief or a disappointment, depends on how fed up of squirrels you are…) But I think the work is now starting to pay off; the images are definitely getting better. While I’m learning squirrel behaviour, the squirrels are learning a few tricks of…
