When I moved to Föne in March and made my first trips towards the river, I was wondering about the ice on dry ground. I saw it both by the river and also along the small creek that runs through Föne. Last week when I took the small bridge over the creek, the water level…

One of the questions I had in my mind about going full frame is what will happen at the telephoto end. My 300mm lens will now be just that – 300mm. The way I figured it, it’s not a bad thing. Obviously we always want more reach, but the 1.6 crop factor is replaced by…

I wrote about the Canon 6D in September. I pre-ordered it as soon as it was possible and it has been a long wait to finally get my hands on the camera… but it finally arrived on Wednesday! Then it seems like it was an equally long wait for the weekend so I can actually…

Just like last Sunday, it was sunny today. But there is one major difference to the landscape – now it’s white! And not just a little bit. It snowed non-stop on Friday and Saturday and the result is a generous snow cover that has truly transformed the scenery. If I may complain, then it’s that…

I did something I haven’t done in a very long time – I went exploring. I found some spots on the map that were worth checking out, but one by one they failed to produce anything of any major interest. I found one photogenic spot but it would’ve required a cloud in front of the…

November. Almost every year, it’s the photographic low point and this year is no exception. It’s hard to get less inspired than I am right now, so I’m really hoping for some miracles in the next few weeks… firstly, that the snow would finally arrive, and secondly, that my new camera will arrive. The only…

It’s November. No pictures, no updates. Just waiting for the snow to transform the landscape. All I’ve achieved is to move the bird feeder setup so it’s now close to the small porch at the back of my house. I can spread the camo net across the porch and sit behind it, which seems to…

I noticed a few days ago that I had some Eurasian tree sparrows visiting the feeder. While the bird is not uncommon, it was just very nice to see a new species come by. Naturally, my goal for today was to get a picture of one. As it turned out, getting a picture of one…

So this is it, first snow! It was still snowing when I got up, but the temperature was above freezing so it wouldn’t last for long. I ate my breakfast and watched the roe deer run back and forth in the field, it seemed like they were excited about the snow as well. They don’t…

A visit to Järvzoo today. Weather was good for photography, overcast, a little bit too dark in some of the forested enclosures but that’s always the case. Better than contrasty sunlight anyway. Took a load of pictures and I realised, even as I was shooting, that I’m not really creating anything special. Same old animals,…
