Having the bird feeder in the forest is not so good for photography… really dark. Especially on a dark day like this. But it’s fun, so I sat there for a while and tried to get a picture of the crested tit, without success. The nuthatches on the other hand are easy. There are at…

It was another rainy day, but in the afternoon the sun came out against all expectations. With nothing else to shoot, I took the Mega-Tamron to the forest and stood by the feeder but didn’t get lucky. While waiting, I saw the light hit the spruce cones with the rain clouds still hanging about in…

Since the days are getting so short that there’s not much daylight left when I get home from work, I’ve been taking my camera to work to shoot the day’s 365 (as you’ve seen, the recent pictures are from Ljusdal). But today I got a curveball at work, before I could pop out to take…

Caught the leaves on camera before the wind spread them. Just seconds after taking this, the small leaf was gone.

Funny how you sometimes discover something new although it has been right in front of you for years. And years. We have this row of Swedish columnar aspen (yes, ”Swedish” is actually part of the name) outside the office and I walk past every time I go out to lunch. But not until today did…

I had been worried that the birds don’t like my feeder setup in the forest but it just apparently took some time, because now I’m seeing a lot of traffic there. I had my first photo session in full camo gear but I shouldn’t have bothered with the camo because the first bird very nearly…

As usual, when there’s nothing else to do, go to the zoo. I really had no expectations today, if I would get one nice picture then it would be a bonus. It would be a nice day out, in any case. When I got to the first wolf enclosure and saw the shutter speeds I…

This is the first time I’ve seen snow since … well, a couple of weeks ago in Iceland, actually. The time between seasons is here, the time when I normally don’t need to take out the camera for anything, except of course this year I’ve punished myself with a 365 project which mercilessly ignores my…

This thing appeared in Ljusdal city a few weeks ago. I’m still undecided as to what it is – my best guess is that it’s a bicycle rack. I’ve yet to see any bicycles in it, though.
