I’ll be posting some squirrel images I took yesterday. I’m still trying to figure out if they’re any better than any other squirrels pictures I’ve taken so far. A bit sharper anyway, because there’s enough light to manage low ISOs and/or fast shutters.
I’ve been complaining about how the squirrels eat the bird food, but now I got yet another thief to reckon with – the deer have discovered the squirrel food! I’ve never caught them in the act, but there’s no question about it. The hoof prints around the perches reveal them, and the deer also lick…
I feel a bit torn. While I think that the new snow we got this week looks really beautiful, it’s also only just more snow that has to melt off before spring. But, no matter how much there is of it, the warm sun makes quick work of it. While I was taking this picture,…
After shooting spring crocuses by the roadside in Färila last spring, I decided to plant some of my own so I’d have easy access to the first flowers of the year. Said and done, in September I planted some crocus and snowdrop bulbs, hoping that my first ever effort at gardening would produce some results.…
My Yamaha Tricker, in my garage, waiting for the snow to melt (that blueish stuff you can see in the window).
Just when I thought that it was all over, we got a new snow front and lucky enough for the temperatures to keep just on the right side of freezing. So the scenery is looking fabulous right now, with beautiful fresh snow covering the landscape. As I was walking around, I didn’t mind at all…
Can’t say much about February 2008. February should normally be the best winter month, but this year it wasn’t. Just a little bit of new snow, but mostly just temperatures hovering around zero, and windy, so I didn’t even get any landscape photography done to decorate this post with a previously un-posted image – the…
Newsflash: I bought myself a motorcycle! It’s a Yamaha XG250 Tricker, like this one here. I’ll try to get around to snapping a shot of my own Tricker, even if it’s just standing in the garage waiting for spring right now… I guess you could say that this is my ultimate camera accessory. The Tricker…
Got plenty of sunshine today, but not so many squirrels. For a while I thought that they would be a complete no-show, just a reminder to me why I gave up my wildlife photographer dreams years ago. Landscapes and flowers don’t have feet! Ironically, this is the time of the year I’ve been waiting for…
It’s been a sunny week, but it figures that the clouds arrive for the weekend. We got just a little bit of sunlight yesterday morning, it’s all gone today. The good news is that now that the sun comes up a bit higher in the sky, there’s a fair amount of light even when it’s…
