  • Song: Sunny Came Home Artist: Shawn Colvin Year: 1996 Most of the music I listen to has no relation to me lyrically. The lyrics can be about anything really, and the only thing that matters is how the song sounds. Vocals are just an instrument among others. But then there are songs which I actually love…

  • Song: No Light, No Light Artist: Florence + The Machine Year: 2011 I can’t remember how I discovered Florence + The Machine, but I remember hearing No Light, No Light for the first time. It just completely floored me. Some songs take a long time to grow (there are a lot of such songs on…

  • I just finished a big project of building a huge jigsaw puzzle of 6000 pieces and now I suddenly have a lot of time in my hands so I thought I’d take my blog to a sidetrack for a moment. I’m not creating any new pictures for various reasons so I can’t spend time on…

  • I have finally learned the art of not taking pictures. Which may sound like a strange thing to say for a person who has recently invested in a whole new camera system, but what I mean is that I no longer prioritise photography. I want to do hiking, mountainbiking and skiing – if I get…

  • I have never photographed fireworks. Which is not so surprising, really, considering that the last time I saw fireworks was before I started with photography in the first place. But, 2017 is all about experiencing things (that’s my new year’s resolution, so thus far it’s going great), so I grabbed my gear and walked over…

  • My favourite track has been prepared for weeks and I didn’t know it! I should’ve just scouted it myself instead of looking at the track status on the web, I don’t know why they don’t mark it as prepared but nevermind now, I know it’s done and it’s all good! So up to Ånnfjället I…

  • I need to get really personal for a moment and talk about something that’s been weighing heavily on my mind for a long time. And that is… well, that pretty much everything weighs heavily on my mind. I’m extremely introverted and on top that, I am also highly sensitive, and that combination does not allow me…

  • It’s done – I’ve sold my Canon 7D Mark II. The only Canon-anything I have on the shelf now are the 100/2.8 macro and 150-600mm, and I’m going to keep them. The Sony macro is almost the same size as the Canon macro so there’s no point in trading that, and then the tele of course,…

  • I’m really happy how all the training is producing results. I’m stronger, have more endurance, better balance and even my coordination has improved. A little. I fell three times today, twice before I even got in my car. In my defense, it’s very icy right now, after two days of raining. It finally froze last night, and…

  • The wind picked up with a perfect timing for the weekend. First it rained on Friday and then turned to snowfall yesterday. The snowing was good of course to cover the ice that was left behind by the rain, but I didn’t even think about going skiing yesterday, not under those conditions. But today was…
