Let’s see. Last Sunday was supposed to be sunny but it wasn’t. Then all week it has been sunny and calm, just simply gorgeous weather that I wasted in the office. And now it’s Saturday and it’s overcast and windy. I’m sure that the weather doesn’t read the calendar but this is just cruel. But…

It was a rainy and overcast day on Saturday, it didn’t clear up until right at sunset. Which gave me some nice clouds to shoot, it must be the first sunset I’ve caught since… since… apparently quite a long time. Sunday morning on the other hand was as bright as it gets in September. Maybe…

I set up my bird feeder site really early this year. It turned out to be a popular move because I’ve needed to refill the feeders every evening. All week I was wondering why the food is disappearing so fast because I knew from experience that the tits don’t eat that much… then today I…

The highest mountain in the Gävleborg county is Stora Korpimäki (or Korpmägg because the Swedes can’t spell Finnish) at 711 m. It’s a forest covered peak and up on top the forest takes on some alpine characteristics, but the point is that it’s still forest. Which means that high as the peak is, your views…

There’s nothing that can take my mind off things than photography. And I really need to take my mind off things. Too many things going wrong, I’m constantly stressed out and it’s starting to take its toll. But nothing to do about it, just wait and hope that everything will work out fine. And that’s…

I think I found a new favourite place. The same one I visited a week ago, except this time I followed the streak of marshland at the northern end of the lake to further explore the area. And now it was afternoon, which provides a more suitable light for this place than morning. It was…

It’s so typical, the weekend when I would be free to go anywhere without worrying about work calling, I don’t have anywhere to go. I was hoping for some sunshine last evening but it never happened, so the day pretty much wasted away. It was an equally dull today, except for a little bit of…

The universal truth among photographers is that the best light occurs during sunrise and sunset. And then there’s the equally true ”it depends”, but instead of explaining at length on what it depends on, I will just say that light is also a perception. Simply put, it is what we perceive it to be at…

Strange feeling. While I had this great urgency to take some pictures, at the same time I was almost unmotivated to do it. In fact, unmotivated to do pretty much anything. But I haven’t lost all of my will power yet, so at first I went for a long walk while it still was overcast,…

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…
