  • I’m starting to get my new home in order, so I can think about other things. Like photography, of course! Since spring has arrived early this year, we drove around a little bit to find some birds that you normally can find in the fields while they wait for their nesting grounds to melt. But…

  • So I’m now officially a ”fönebo” – spent my first night in my new home! I have a good feeling about this, somehow it feels like this new home is a little bit luxurious compared to the old one, even if some things here are clearly too old and in need of replacing or fixing.…

  • Lovely late winter’s day. I spent it all inside, going through my stuff to find out what I could throw away. I found that I had boxes and boxes and boxes of… boxes. Can’t believe how many empty cardboard boxes I’ve kept over the years! When I was done with my sorting, I had my…

  • Photographing a moon crescent is to be much harder than photographing a full moon. There was an ever so thin crescent yesterday that I kept admiring from the bus window, only to see it disappear behind the clouds by the time we were in Loos. The crescent is still nice today and I admired it…

  • My wish kind of came through, it snowed at night but the decoration on the trees is still on the wrong side of pretty so I took my chances with some open water instead. Nothing special out of that, either, but at least I got to wade in the knee deep snow and get my…

  • This February has been unusually bad for photography. February is normally not a busy month, but now we’re already on the second half of it and the only pictures I have are from the zoo. It’s a combination of lack of snowfall and windy weather that spoils the scenery, there’s nothing inspirational as far as…

  • With no new snow in a long time now, the landscape is not looking very pretty. The day however was beautiful, so a visit to the zoo was just the right thing to do. I have talked about the problems I have with my 300mm f4L in zoos. With the animals so close, framing becomes…

  • It’s the coldest day of the winter so far, around -20°C. It was  -22°C when got up and the strange thing is that unless my memory totally fails me, it’s colder than it was last winter. Last winter was special in that the cold period lasted such a long time, but up here in Loos…

  • I had originally planned to ski another stretch of the snow mobile trail from Hamra, but after almost getting stuck in the snow when parking my car yesterday, I didn’t feel like trying my luck. So I took the same old trail in Loos, the one which goes over three lakes, up to Ryggskog and…

  • I wanted to find some new places, so I drove to Västersjön in Hamra today and took the snow mobile trail from there. I did part of this trail last year but now my plan was to ski to the Voxnan river, which wasn’t possible last time because the trail wasn’t used. I was hoping…
