  • 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…

  • While I’ve been on holiday, Canon released a new SLR and it’s the fullframe 6D as rumoured. So that’s it then – it’s my new camera! Just as well that I didn’t get the Tokina 16-28mm and Canon 24-105mm lenses sold, because now I will need them. Those investments I made in the Tokina 11-16mm…

  • The weather forecast said that it would be raining today but not very much so I decided to hike locally and took off to the Svartmorgraven ravine. When I got up on Flatruet, I found that the clouds were very low and the visibility was in fact quite poor. For a moment I was wondering…
