It was a rare event – a semi-sunny morning. I walked up the Funäsdalsfjället mountain with the aim of taking some panorama images. The peak of the mountain was advertised as the best view in the Swedish mountains and I suspected some hype there, but it turned out to be grand indeed – a 360…

Another week, another mountain range. I drove to Mittåkläppen, parked the car about 1 km past Djupdalsvallen and started walking. After I noticed that the road continued in fine conditions, I was a bit bummed with myself for not driving further. I had never been there before so I didn’t know how it would look…

This is what I look forward to every autumn – wake up see the landscape covered with the first snow. Somehow I wasn’t all that happy now though to see the white stuff coming down heavy because I was not prepared at all for winter conditions. The visibility improved a little bit during my generous…

My main target for the trip was the Storulvån mountain station. It has a good reputation and it’s suitable for day hikers like me because the place is surrounded by mountains. The prices are a bit on the high side for something that’s part of the Youth Hostel chain, however let’s not forget that we’re…

Yesterday was a total washout – heavy rain and heavy winds. So I was all the more relieved to see that it was no longer raining even if it still was overcast and I could finally do a hike up a mountain – my target was Storsnasen. I could see straight away that I was…

Here it is – finally! – my ”summer” holiday. I was originally going to go to Lapland, but since I was a bit tired from work I didn’t feel like driving that far. The weather was going to be on the poor side anyway so I didn’t want to go there for nothing – done…

As the old adage goes, we work to live and not live to work. Well, the jury is still out on that. Not my choice though, but I’m sure getting tired so please excuse me if I won’t be updating the blog for a while.

Although it might not always seem like that, I’m actually quite shy. It seems like I’m always shy at the wrong place at the wrong time… but anyway, with regard to photography, the shyness rears its ugly head when I see something really nice in someone’s garden or even outside it. Say for example, I’m…

One of my all time favourite songs is Tänään tahdon laulaa by Kaija Kärkinen & Ile Kallio. For those of you who don’t speak any Finnish, the literal translation is ”Today I want to sing”. Now, I can’t actually sing to save my life. I might occasionally hum quietly when the music is playing so…

I am normally a very un-analytical person. Things just are the way they are, analysing them always makes me depressed because there’s so much I can’t change and I don’t need the headache. Put this in a small scale and I think I have figured out why I want to take the kind of photographs…
