I went skiing yesterday, and paid the price today. My muscles are aching… too fast, too soon. So I was not in the mood to ski today, but I wanted to do something fun anyway, and ended up walking up to Kariknallen. It’s pretty icy up there, so walking was actually easier than skiing. The snow…

It’s been very quiet here lately. Since my blog posts are almost always related to pictures I’ve been taking, then you can guess that no blog posts means no pictures. The reason for the downtime can be described in one word – weather. December 2015 is the warmest in record in many places, I don’t know if…

Another day, another snowfall, another walk. I’m really enjoying this. 🙂 Gotta go skiing next weekend!

We almost lost the winter yesterday when it got really warm and it even started raining. But before all the snow was gone, the temperature dipped below freezing at night and it started snowing and I reckon that all the snow that melted yesterday, snowed back down today. Which works great for me! Since it’s…

I’ve been laying low after the intensive week in Scotland. The trip gave me a reason to start seriously thinking about my photography, what do I want from it and where am I going with it? It has a lot to do with expectation levels and without going into details at the moment, I decided…

The last day! It’s surprising how calm the weather is again, so we started with some lakeside shooting. But then, inevitably, it started raining again so after a few frames I packed the camera again. The rain wasn’t all bad though, and it was coming and going, so after breakfast we drove to a place which…

The weather wasn’t good enough to bother for a morning shoot, so we had a sleep-in and ate breakfast at the hotel, then started driving towards Glencoe. By the time we reached it, it was raining – pouring. And windy. We drove to Glen Etive and the others seemed to be inspired to shoot despite the…

We did a morning hike to a valley with several waterfalls. The hike up was a bit harder than I expected, and the result less rewarding… it’s not the fault of the place, it really has potential, it’s just that the light wasn’t anything to cheer about. But finally I found a waterfall I was…

We had a surprise in store for us today! We were going to take a boat trip to a loch which is otherwise inaccessible, unless you’re prepared to hike through rough terrain (and a lot of mud). We drove to Elgol again but instead of going back to the hotel after the morning shoot, we…

This time we had a late morning, we ate breakfast before heading out. The first stop was at the Old Man of Storr, which is a huge column (like a hoodoo) surrounded by other columns and cliff formations. Clouds were still low, and the Old Man was hidden much of the time. We waited patiently…
