I love planning but only a fraction of anything I plan ever becomes a reality. This weekend was one of those rare occasions of action, but even now the plan would never have left the drawing board had I not had a friend to come along. We were determined that even the bad weather wasn’t…

It’s time for another mountain break! Late winter’s days don’t get any better than this, so the perfect place to start is Sånfjället which was one of the inspirations behind my decision to buy skis. The snowshoe tour last year was memorable and I had no doubts that a skiing trip on the same mountain…

Here’s a dilemma: It’s a beautiful winter day with sunshine. The full moon will rise in the afternoon. You have big blisters on your feet and can’t wear ski boots. Options: Snowshoe hike up to Funäsdalsberget for 360 degree views of the mountains. Problem: The moonrise isn’t until the afternoon so it will be a…

Another week, another mountain range. I drove to Mittåkläppen, parked the car about 1 km past Djupdalsvallen and started walking.

One of my biggest failings as a photographer is that I don’t have a distinguishable style. I have a common nominator in many of my images, for example in my flower images I try to shoot the flower with extremely blurred background so that the only recognisable element is just the flower. But that is…

3 av 60 toppar i Funäsfjällen Jag blev riktigt biten av fjällvandring tidigare i år när jag besökte Funäsfjällen i juni. Då var det klart att jag skulle göra ett nytt besök när höstfärgerna infinner sig. På den tiden var det dock inte självklart att jag skulle åka till Funäsfjällen varje gång, så jag började…

1 av 60 toppar i Funäsfjällen Hamrafjället var min första 60 toppar topp, fast på den tiden visste jag ingenting 60 toppar. Jag var alldeles ny i fjällvandring överhuvudtaget, hittills hade jag nöjt mig med att fota nära bilen men jag insåg fort att om jag vill nå bra fotoställen, då måste jag gå. Efter…
