I took my 365 (or what I intended to be such) during the day today so I could pack my camera, ready for tomorrow. I don’t like last minute packing, that’s just an invitation to forget things so I prefer to pack early and then in the morning I just need to doublecheck I have…
Stopped by the lake on the way to work. This is one of the many things I like about autumn, when the wisps of smoke rise from the water. The fog was moving quickly, and these lines of fog were nearly not as nice when I pointed my camera at them, than they were a…
Another morning with frost. It makes the landscape look like Mother Nature moved the saturation slider way to left!
It was frosty this morning, just like forecast. The effect in my garden was immediate and the cosmos flowers in particular had suffered. Yesterday when I came home, I was looking at the cosmos flowers and saw a lot of flowers that had just started to bloom, but they don’t tolerate subzero temperatures at all, so…
Yesterday when I came home from Loos, I made it back just before a weather front hit Föne. The wind picked up enormously and the trees were swinging like crazy and I had to check that I didn’t leave anything loose on the porch that would fly away. Today I saw that the two flower…
I had an introduction into geology today. A group of us learned about the origin of rocks, and tips and tricks in finding rocks containing interesting minerals and the excursion finished with a visit in the Loosgrufvan mine. Ironically, I never managed to visit the old mine during the seven years I lived in Loos, but now…
Another warm and sunny autumn day, it was an absolute delight to be out walking. I just wish the scenery would have been more inspiring… I miss the mountains already! But, this is where it ends I think. Cooler air coming in tomorrow so it will feel like a proper autumn. A lot of mushrooms…
So I went for a walk like usual, shot some lame pictures along the way, and the one I’m using for the 365 is the one I took when I was almost back home. As usual. Why do I bother with the walks anyway…? Oh yeah, to get to my step goal. Achieved.
The other day when I told about the new beach in Ljusdal, I couldn’t take pictures of the pier because there were people on it. No such problems today.
Here it finally is, the much talked about blurry cow! Having done panning and shaking, I used the zoom technique this time. Ideally, you would be shooting from a tripod to keep the camera steady when you rotate the zoom ring but I did this handheld. After all, the goal was to create a blurry…
