  • I’m not a bird photographer even if I occasionally take pictures of birds. So it’s very rare that I go out specifically with the intention of photographing birds, but today it happened. Mostly because there’s nothing else on offer at the moment… it’s getting greener but it’s not green enough yet. Anyway, when the aim…

  • On Saturday I referred to a possible front-focus issue with the Tamron SP 150-600/5-6.3 Di VC USD megazoom on my Canon 6D. I did some testing and found out that the focus problem is consistent when using the small focus points, whereas the central point is spot on. I even compared the results to the…

  • My idea for today’s picture was to show that Fönesjön is now free of ice. I take a note of it every year, and during these three springs I’ve lived in Föne, this is obviously the earliest the ice has disappeared. I parked my car at the bus stop which provides a view over the…

  • When I got out of the office, I saw some dark and ominous clouds. Sure enough, the hails hit me on the way home and I was happy to be sitting in my warm car as I looked at the people walking and cycling and looking pretty miserable. By the time I got to Föne,…

  • In the morning I saw some movement in the garden, it was the roe deer making their way down to the field. I grabbed the camera and sneaked on the balcony and waited for them to pass by, too bad I still had the wideangle attached to the 6D so I had to settle with…

  • It appears that the weather hasn’t been so nice in the lowlands either. There was a lot of snow when I got home, but now the temperatures are up again and the snow is disappearing fast. It helps that it’s been windy… now that’s a familiar tune… But now that I had a vacation day…

  • It was really beautiful in the mountains today. The wind had quieted down and the forest was covered in snow, I hated it that I had to go back home. I made a short skiing trip to get a few landscape shots, my left foot not allowing me to go very far. And anyway, I…

  • I continued with sightseeing today, but this time with some members from the camera club. It was actually a mini-tour, we visited five different spots. It didn’t start out too well when we got to the first spot – it was supposed to be a fine view, but honestly, it was marginally better than what…

  • So, no more bird shooting for me. Last night I got startled just when I was about to fall asleep, by a mouse inside the walls. Last winter I had big problems with the mice, thankfully they never got in the flat but they did chew up the network cable that goes through a hole…

  • Lately I’ve been reading a lot of about introversion and extroversion. There’s no question that I’m an introvert, and I’ve learned to understand a lot of things about myself the more I’ve read about the subject. One thing that is strongly related to (but not necessarily a part of) introversion is something which is called…
