It snowed a lot yesterday and last night, but it’s also been quite windy so the trees look a bit boring. But otherwise, it looks a lot like winter and we drove to Orsa Björnpark so see the animals in the fresh snow. In theory, a great idea – we even had perfect light for zoo…
Fabulous aurora tonight again, visible despite the light of the full moon. I wish I’d been at a better spot but as it so often happens, I was in a hurry so all I could do was to shoot from field close to home. In fact, I had all but given up and was actually…
Time for my annual look back at the monthly highlights during the past year! 2014 is of course the year of my ”365 pictures” project, but it wasn’t much of a success and I can say straight away that none of the pictures in this year’s selection is directly from this project. I was very…
Can you believe it, this is the last picture of my ”365 pictures” project! Yes, I made it! Well, 365 minus 1… there is that unfortunate case of a memory card format before downloading the pictures to computer. But since I took a picture that day, my conscience is clear. 🙂 So what did I…
During the many years I’ve spent at the company, we have had a lot of people come and go. Most are forgotten, but some become legend. Like this one guy who once had to spell out a word to a customer on the phone. ”A as in monkey”, he said. The customer replied, somewhat perplexed,…
Snow is on the way. So are mild temperatures and rain after that – we’ll see if there’s any snow left when 2015 dawns. 3
It was very cold, -20°C, so I didn’t feel like going for a walk. I just strolled down the field to check the animal tracks because a few days ago I saw a wild boar run across the field (99% sure it was a wild boar, I saw it only for a second but it was…
With so many days off during the Christmas period, I needed to do something else than long walks around home. I was curious to see Njupeskär in the winter, that’s a nice day trip and I got a fellow photographer to go with me so we set off in the early hours in order to…
After all the talk about the focusing problems with the Tokina, I actually forgot to test it. I was driving around, just waiting for something better to come up, but it didn’t. But at least I found a nice road that I should inspect closer in the summer. 6
It’s one of these pictures again. I’m struggling with the Tokina wideangle, I just think it behaves very erratically. The first time I had the Tokina lens (with the 40D), I had no problems with whatsoever, that’s why I liked it so much. But now… at first I thought that there’s something wrong with the…
