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…

This is it, opening of the summer waffle season! I drove to Bruksvallarna and took the toll road to Mittåkläppen. The target for the day’s hike was Lill-Axhögen. There’s a 4-wheeler road that follows the valley to the west, and this road would take me very close to the mountain. But instead of wasting time…

Here’s one funny thing. I’m not sure if I’m in love with macro the way I was for a few years ago. I’m walking around in a field of flowers and I’m… lost. I don’t know what to do with them. So here’s what I’m thinking. Maybe I’ve come to the end of the road…

I have a problem. Ever since I realised that there is no good skiing (=skiing with photo potential) to be done in Föne, I totally lost interest in it. I’m not going on walks either, unless it’s clear skies with a chance of aurora, obviously… So, I’ve become passive and lazy and I’m probably gaining…

Going fullframe meant that I might occasionally feel that 300mm is not enough as a telephoto lens (although, if I had a 1200mm lens, I would probably occasionally think it’s not enough anyway). I have a Kenko Pro 1.4x teleconverter which I hardly ever used with the 40D. It didn’t seem worthwhile to lose a…

A five day weekend. I’ll take that. We have lots of snow now and the weather has been perfect for skiing and more and more snowmobiles are out as well, so I have some trails to follow. I haven’t gotten around to getting a trail map yet so I’ve just followed whatever tracks I’ve found.…

I noticed a few days ago that I had some Eurasian tree sparrows visiting the feeder. While the bird is not uncommon, it was just very nice to see a new species come by. Naturally, my goal for today was to get a picture of one. As it turned out, getting a picture of one…

So this is it, first snow! It was still snowing when I got up, but the temperature was above freezing so it wouldn’t last for long. I ate my breakfast and watched the roe deer run back and forth in the field, it seemed like they were excited about the snow as well. They don’t…

I started my bird feeding a few weeks ago with just one small feeder to see how it goes, and I found quite quickly that I have a problem with magpies. Those birds are smart enough to figure out how to get the seeds even when they’re too big to perch on those little sticks…
