It’s been a windy day but I was determined to do some flower photography today, perfect time to test my new wind box. But my first target was the marsh marigold in a spot which is surrounded by forest and thus less susceptible to the gusts, so I left the windbox in the car (it…

Another trip to Messlingen, with a mission. I’ve gotten over the disappointment from the last time, and I’ve actually made some significant process – I’ve found a reliable craftsman who can finish the cabin. Although it won’t happen until after midsummer, but I don’t have any vacation until July so that’s perfect. Today’s job was…

It’s a rainy and windy day so I decided not even bother with the big camera, even though the macro season has well and truly started. A lot of flowers are on the way up, for example the wood sorrel is blooming at its best but with the weather of course, the flowers are closed.…

I had a plan for the day: Wood anemone Lunch Check the pasque flowers Bake bread Cycling Watch ice hockey and eats lots of ice cream 1. The wood anemone in my favourite spot were stuck in about the same stage where they were last weekend. It has been a cold week, it even snowed…

After all the warm weather last weekend, I’m having a hard time figuring out what to wear now. It’s not as warm but the sun is shining, so do I need the middle layer or not? I decided to have faith in the sun and left out the middle layer and I was very nearly…

8 och 9 av 60 toppar Ösjövålen och Ösjökläppen Dagens vandring gick till Ösjöstugan och och vidare till Ösjövålen och Osjökläppen. Det är en lång vandring så jag ville göra det lite lättare genom att ta skidliften upp från Ramundberget, vilket innebar att det var lätt vandring till Ösjöstugan. Leden går upp därifrån och när…

I finally had some holidays, if three busy days can be counted as such. But they were busy in the good way so I don’t mind! My sister came for a visit and there’s really nothing I want to show her around home so we headed to the mountains. On Thursday we hiked up to…

I’ve had another day to play with the Canon 100mm f2.8L IS macro, but the pictures are few and far apart – not sure why but I’m just not coming across any subjects I like. The picture of the very pale heath spotted orchid is getting close to the closest focusing distance of the lens,…
