I had quite a day yesterday. In the morning I had the pleasure of having the squirrel as company and was quite happy about the resulting pictures, and then in the afternoon we did a skiing trip in Lofsdalen and in the evening I shot the perigee moon rising over the Hovärken mountain. I can’t…

Since I have nothing else to post, I thought I would share a couple of a squirrel pictures caught the other day. It was a pleasant surprise that this time the squirrel didn’t run off when I opened the window, so I got a number of a frames and some of them quite nice, too.…

It’s spring, there’s no doubt about that. Warm during the day and cold during the night, and the trails are covered with crushed ice rather than soft snow. I went skiing yesterday and the glide was fabulous – unfortunately it was as good sideways and backwards as it was forward. So I took the snowshoes…

Don’t worry, these are probably the last bird pictures I’ll post in a while. The season is getting so late that the light just never seems to be right. Yes, that’s what I said! Here’s why. Shortly after sunrise my bird feeder is lit by the warm light. Now that would normally be a good…

I decided to try to get some flight shots of the birds. I have occasionally gotten a lucky shot of a bird with wings spread, so I figured I should be able to get one deliberately. Put the camera to continuous shooting and fire off a series, something’s gotta work, right? Wrong. After 297 frames…

When you drive to Lillhärdal from Loos, you have to go north to Sveg first. I’ve often looked at the map and wondered if it would be possible to choose a more straight route, but that straight route means taking some awfully small roads. The proof is in the pudding… We tested it yesterday. After…

I realised that I could’ve done better with yesterday’s images. The nuthatch could be cropped differently to make use of the full width of the image and get rid of some of the excess on top. And while I was processing it, I decided to add some more canvas for good measure so now there’s…

Windy today, so no fog. But overcast in the morning, so I photographed the birds, what else? Yesterday when I got some nice pictures of the more elusive birds, I started thinking that maybe I’ve exhausted the opportunities at my bird feeder. But never underestimate the birds. Instead of shooting the birds on the perch,…

The weather was just perfect for bird photography. It was foggy, but it was the light autumn fog that allowed the sunlight to break through a little bit because somewhere above the fog there were blue skies. Which means, I can use a lower ISO for the birds while the background will be distraction free.…

Let’s see. Last Sunday was supposed to be sunny but it wasn’t. Then all week it has been sunny and calm, just simply gorgeous weather that I wasted in the office. And now it’s Saturday and it’s overcast and windy. I’m sure that the weather doesn’t read the calendar but this is just cruel. But…
