First day out with the new camera, exciting! And what’s even better, it was snowing in the morning and I just kept looking outside to see when it would be light enough to go for a walk, eager to get out. The first photo opportunity wasn’t very far away, I can see this view from…

Ljusnan is freezing surprisingly fast. Well at least I’m surprised… it’s only been a few days with freezing temperatures but already there’s only a narrow strip of open water left, with quite a fast flow. The slabs of ice on the shore never completely melted away during the thaw but the river was most definitely…

The never-ending November has ended! We now have freezing temperatures and even a little bit of snow, and when I did my walk today I had blue skies above me and sunshine on my face. I was so happy! Obviously this is not nearly enough snow to be January and it looks more like the…

It’s been snowing all day, which is needed because the warm weather and storm winds really took heavy on the snow cover we had. We still need a lot more snow to cover up all the debris that the storm left on the ground, I saw sticks and broken off branches sticking out everywhere in…

So we finally got some snow! Earlier in the week it looked like there wouldn’t be any snow at all so I had made some plans to check a few more spots along the river. When it started snowing, I thought those spots would be even nicer with some open water surrounded by snow. Until…

We’re not doing any half measures here. After having complained that we have no snow in sight, the big storm that is ravaging Europe right now did reach out to us and dumped such a pile of snow overnight that I’m firmly stuck at home this morning. This is actually the first time it has…

Seems like it’s been an extremely windy autumn with some big storms doing damage, although luckily this region has been spared from the worst. But even so, with the winds we had today it was a bit tough to do half of my walk against the wind… I had to brace myself against the heaviest…
