With the snow as it is, I’m depressed even by the thought of shooting landscape at home. But with the new camera, I have to find something meaningful to shoot and thus we drove to Hornslandet today. There’s snow, but not at the water’s edge and the water is open as well, so it sure…

We have plenty of snow (as seen in the first picture) but it doesn’t help, the landscape is hopeless for any meaningful photography. I prefer my winter trees covered with snow, but the hard wind and above freezing temperatures have done their work and the snow cover in the forests in particular is in a really…

Tested the Sigma 70-200/2.8 today and was disappointed to see that it’s no better than it was before. It’s weird that the autofocus problem with the camera only affected wideangles because you’d expect that whatever focus problems you have, they would be multiplied with longer focal lengths. But the Sigma is exactly the same as…

Got my Canon 7D MkII from service this week, and it seems like the problem is gone! The attached note says that they adjusted autofocus on both the camera and the lens (Canon 15-85mm) but it appears that no other adjustments were made. I’m not entirely sold on that because if the problem had only been…

I think it’s safe to say it’s winter. It’s been snowing two days straight so we finally have a nice snow cover, much better than it ever was last winter. I checked out a new route today and it was heavy going with the fresh snow, and it didn’t even help to follow the snow…

We have enough snow for skiing at home, but I wanted a real winter landscape and I was sure I would find it in Harsa, so I drove there in the morning. I was right, the trees were covered in snow and there was at least twice much snow on the ground as in Ljusdal. The…

Fabulous aurora tonight again, visible despite the light of the full moon. I wish I’d been at a better spot but as it so often happens, I was in a hurry so all I could do was to shoot from field close to home. In fact, I had all but given up and was actually…

Can you believe it, this is the last picture of my ”365 pictures” project! Yes, I made it! Well, 365 minus 1… there is that unfortunate case of a memory card format before downloading the pictures to computer. But since I took a picture that day, my conscience is clear. 🙂 So what did I…

During the many years I’ve spent at the company, we have had a lot of people come and go. Most are forgotten, but some become legend. Like this one guy who once had to spell out a word to a customer on the phone. ”A as in monkey”, he said. The customer replied, somewhat perplexed,…

Snow is on the way. So are mild temperatures and rain after that – we’ll see if there’s any snow left when 2015 dawns. 3
