I have vacation next week. I had planned to photograph flowers and ride my motorbike. All things considered, maybe I’ll go skiing instead. We had 15 cm of snow in the morning. It’s still snowing. Coincidentally, it’s 3 years ago to the date when we last had snow in May. The difference is that back…

I went skiing again. Just couldn’t resist the trails which are in pretty good shape at the moment with what the recent snowfall. Glide was great, too good in fact – wasted a lot of momentum slipping sideways. And my feet are not hurting – much. I just wish I could put the same kind…

I feel a bit torn. While I think that the new snow we got this week looks really beautiful, it’s also only just more snow that has to melt off before spring. But, no matter how much there is of it, the warm sun makes quick work of it. While I was taking this picture,…

This is it – the day I have been waiting for! My requirements for shooting the full moon are very specific. I’m not interested in the moon for the sake of itself, I mean when you’ve seen one moon frame-filler, you’ve seen them all. What can you say? ”Nice composition”? Nope, that just doesn’t do…

Sleep deprivation, some bad decisions, poor timing and boring weather resulted in zero pictures yesterday. I was hoping for better today, and I guess it was… at least I slept better. It was one of those days which start with some disappointments but end up just fine. I tried to catch the moonset, but it…

It’s time for all play no work! I have booked myself for a long weekend in Messlingen, long being four days. The reason I chose this weekend is that it’s full moon on Tuesday and ever since a botched attempt to shoot the full moon on Flatruet three years ago, I’ve been obsessed to get…

I’m finally starting to tell my squirrels apart. Now that I have them pegged down, it’s actually quite easy to recognise them. ”Blackie” is the biggest of the bunch, and darker than the other two. ”Reddie” and ”Stubby” (or ”Stubby-tail”) are otherwise much the same, but easy to separate thanks to Stubby’s tail – looks…

If I thought that yesterday was wonderful, then today was even better! More snow and less wind. When I set off, the trails were completely snowed over in some places as the snow mobiles hadn’t been around yet. The snow wasn’t too deep though to spoil skiing, so I enjoyed every second I spent out…

Very light snowfall today, but all the more wind. A wonderful winter’s day, in other words. It was also a bit dark today, so there was very little contrast. A few times I nearly tripped on the snow drifts because it was just simply impossible to see where the wind had piled up the snow.…

I just had to go and get myself a pair of new skis (and boots). There’s a new type of ski out, they are much shorter and slightly wider than my old skis. Apparently, they provide for more maneuverability and balance than ”normal” skis and they are also easier if you want to ski skating-style.…
