  • Just as predicted, it rained today. I managed to do two walls when the rain forced me inside for an involuntary 4-hour break. It is a bit risky to paint when the fresh paint could be rained on, but I had made a cold calculation that there’s not enough wind to push the rain on…

  • ”There will be time for a hike”, I said. Ha. Ha. Ha. Either I was enormously optimistic or enormously naive, because I found out that painting windows is a full time job. I spent 11 hours on them today, and by the time I was finished, it was almost 9pm and I was starving. Going on…

    So I’m at the cabin now! When I got to Messlingen, the day was as dark as it was yesterday but there was not much wind so I fancied my chances at the lake, I needed to get my 365. Two observations, firstly, there’s not much snow left. I’ve seen more snow on the mountain…

  • It was a very dark day. Murky clouds all around, but not very much rain and actually not too cold either. But it will get sunnier and warmer tomorrow and I will be off to the cabin!

  • The past few days the field has been yellow with dandelions. I’ve been waiting for the peak bloom to shoot the field for my 365, and today was the day. Slight problem though – when I came home I found that the darn flowers are over bloom! I should’ve known. With flowers, there’s no tomorrow…

  • Having just survived the Square Month, I’ll keep things interesting and declare June the Panorama Month. Vertical or horizontal doesn’t matter, as long as it’s narrower or shorter than 2:3. As demonstrated by the two pictures today. I hope this will be a bigger challenge than May though, because now that I look back at…

  • So happy to see this little guy! It was actually quite exciting today, at first I saw two roe deer run across the field. A moment later, one of the roe deer came back to the field and as it turned out, it was a mommy roe deer picking up its kid. So that scene earlier,…

  • The cows are out on pasture! This farmer I have across the valley, he seems to wait quite long every year until he lets his cattle go out on the field. Elsewhere I’ve seen cows for some weeks now. I like cows. I may be living in a small village and surrounded by forests and…

  • Love the colour of the leaves in the spring, the birches are just radiating their bright greens. Now if only I could find some nice ways of shooting them… but it seems like I’m more interested in getting my garden in shape than taking pictures at the moment. Drove to Bollnäs today to get another…
