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…

Every photographer knows that sunrise and sunset are the best time for shooting. I’m ok with sunsets, but sunrises tend to require such early wakeups that I’m having a hard time with it. But all I really need is some company to motivate me to get up and go out, and so it was that we…

Weird boat by the lake. No idea what it’s used for, there’s a saw kind of contraption in the fore with a lot of reeds and waterlily pads hanging from it. Maybe it’s for removing the plants to make open water, considering that this lake is starting to get tough on propellers. On the other…

This the first time I’ve seen the farmer harvest hay twice from ”my” field. In the previous summers he’s waited until late summer to do the harvest but now he came around already in July so he got a second harvest as well.
