Regular reader(s) know that I have an ongoing quest to find a camera backpack that really works for me. I’ve tried with normal backpacks and customised them for carrying gear, and I’ve tried with several dedicated camera packs. My most recent camera pack is the Lowepro Flipside 400 AW which I’ve had for two years,…

This winter I found a waterfall. Obviously, it was under snow and ice at the time, but I promised myself to get there at first best opportunity in the spring and today was it. In the winter you get there following the snow mobile trail, but in the summer there are two roads that take…

One thing I’m always very careful to point out is that photography is a hobby for me and that I don’t have any intentions of making it a profitable such. So I don’t market my pictures and a few years ago when I had a photo exhibition, I decided that it’s just not worth the…

At long last, I finally thought I’d print out some pictures in poster size. It was fairly easy to select the pictures because I honestly don’t have very many pictures which I feel would look nice on a wall, I find the whole concept a little bit odd. So I went for the minimalistic flower…

Last day with the 5D MkII that I was supposed to use for wideangle photography. Ironic then that most of the time I was zooming the 24-105mm lens at full tilt and of course found it short, so if I would ever get a full frame camera I would probably need to invest in a…

When I lived in Ljusdal, I used make long trips by car in search of nice places to photograph. When I moved to Loos, the car got some rest and I found many good spots within walking distance. And a lot of more great locations are just a few kilometres further so there’s not a…

One photographer I have the deepest respect for is Guy Tal. He creates stunning landscape pictures but he is also a very insightful writer, just check out his blog. He recently wrote about photography competitions and I can only echo his thoughts. I’ve been very suspicious about any competitions for the very reason that he…
