I started my bird feeding a few weeks ago with just one small feeder to see how it goes, and I found quite quickly that I have a problem with magpies. Those birds are smart enough to figure out how to get the seeds even when they’re too big to perch on those little sticks…

I very nearly didn’t bother to take out the camera today, but in the evening when I saw that the sun was still shining, I finally bothered to lift my butt off the couch. The sun sets so early these days… it’s more and more obvious now that we’re heading for the dark season. I…

The Ljusdal camera club did an excursion to the Hamra national park today. I was kinda in a desperate need to get there so when we started talking about an excursion, I made sure to paint a glorious picture of the park so I could persuade the other members that my idea was the best……

It’s officially the last day of the season – Djupdalsvallen closes today. It’s my favourite waffle place so naturally I had to have a waffle there and celebrate (or commiserate) the last day of my holiday; I will leave in the morning tomorrow so there will be no more hiking then. When I got to…

I had no idea what to do today. There is one subject matter I have not touched all week and that’s waterfalls and I did kind of think of shooting at a brook nearby, but the day was too sunny for that (can’t complain though). So I spent the morning taking care of some odds…

After a couple of rainy and snowy days, the weather is turning. Today will be sunny so I drove to Måns-Erstjärnen, which is one of my favourite places. But I’ve never walked all the way around it and today was the day to do it. Twice, as it turned out. Anyway, when I arrived at…

While I’ve been on holiday, Canon released a new SLR and it’s the fullframe 6D as rumoured. So that’s it then – it’s my new camera! Just as well that I didn’t get the Tokina 16-28mm and Canon 24-105mm lenses sold, because now I will need them. Those investments I made in the Tokina 11-16mm…

The weather forecast said that it would be raining today but not very much so I decided to hike locally and took off to the Svartmorgraven ravine. When I got up on Flatruet, I found that the clouds were very low and the visibility was in fact quite poor. For a moment I was wondering…

The morning was rainy so I took it easy (lazy) at the cabin. The weather forecast said that it would clear up in the afternoon and sure enough it did, so I took off to Kappruskaftet. It’s fast becoming a favourite place for me and I was looking forward to exploring it in the evening…

Today’s hike is one of the ”guldtur” hikes in Funäsfjällen. The description says it’s 19 km and I’m not sure how long it will take me – it all depends on how many photo opportunities there are on the way! Just to make sure I could take it as slow as needed, I drove to…
