  • I can see the benefit of having a pet… someone to greet me at the door when I come home. On the other hand, it sounds like a lot of responsibility, I can’t even have flowers indoors – I gave up on that when a couple of cacti died on me. The flowers I have…

  • I had to drive to Fågelsjö today to take down my exhibition. The forecast said that the morning would be part cloudy, so I had hopes of capturing some waterfall images at Svartån, the stretch that I visited last November when it was too late in the season to get anything sensible done. And everybody…

  • Rainy today, so it’s perfect for a visit at the zoo. I now have the year pass so it doesn’t really matter if I don’t get any pictures, at least I get to walk a few kilometres which is far better than watching movies at home. When it’s raining, it means that there’s not a…

  • Now that the nights can be quite cold, there’s often mist in the morning. I saw from the weather forecast that the conditions were right and this time I wanted to capture the mist, even if it meant getting up early on a Saturday. This time of the year, the sun doesn’t rise so frightfully…

  • Since I have a long drive back home, the plan was to do a trip in the morning, have lunch and then drive off and check out a spot along the way. So I took my bike to the Mittån delta in the Messlingen lake and it was just as remembered – difficult to access…

  • Somehow I totally managed to mess up my holiday planning for the summer so that I didn’t have any chance to drive to the cabin just for the weekend, until now. It’s a 3.5 hr drive so it’s not a good idea to drive in on Saturday morning and back on Sunday evening, there would…

  • It’s almost a month from my last post. Must be the longest break I’ve ever taken and I’m not happy about it. I mean, all things considered, the blog is not important. It’s the reasons behind the silence. The last time I wrote this weird sickness that hit me. Well, it actually got worse since…

  • Earlier I said that I was feeling some fatigue towards the end of my vacation. I assumed it was because I had pushed my body to beyond what it’s capable of, but I shouldn’t have been so hard on myself – I was already fighting an infection by then. In fact, it had started about…

  • Last night when I checked the weather forecast, it said it would be part sunny with chance of showers. So I woke up with high expectations, was met with grey skies and during breakfast, rain. Ok then, showers started earlier than I anticipated. I packed my gear and drove to Rockvallen, knowing that it would…

  • I slept for 10 hours. 10 hours! The last time it happened I was jet-lagged after 32 hours without sleep, coming back from Canada. I should’ve learned from my vacation in March. I can’t push myself physically every day, I just don’t have the condition for it and at some point my body will call…
