I did another attempt at night sky photography but there were some clouds that ruined the show. It didn’t really stop me shooting though, because there was a way to use the clouds to my advantage. No aurora, but the clouds kind of create the same effect! The bright light is from Föne. The spot…

It appears that the weather hasn’t been so nice in the lowlands either. There was a lot of snow when I got home, but now the temperatures are up again and the snow is disappearing fast. It helps that it’s been windy… now that’s a familiar tune… But now that I had a vacation day…

My heart sank when I got up. The wind was really bad, even worse than yesterday. I couldn’t breath into the wind and the wind meter at the station indicated median winds of 13-17 m/s. That’s no joke! We really didn’t feel like repeating yesterday’s experience, even if this time it would be a shorter…

We had been looking at the weather forecast with some concerns because it looked like it wouldn’t get nice at all this week. Our original plan was to ski from Gåsen to Sylarna and then back to Helags, but with the atrocious weather, there was no point in going to Sylarna. For one thing, there…

The day dawned considerably better than yesterday ended, so we could continue our expedition. There was still some wind, but no snowfall and the sun was almost breaking out on some occasions. It was only 15 km to the Gåsen mountain cabin so it felt like an easy match after the heavy winds on Saturday…

As I said, we really didn’t have the weather with us. After a relatively calm day, the wind picked up last night and it started snowing, so we were firmly stuck in the Vålåstugan mountain cabin. It was an easy decision to stay though, we figured that we needed to rest after two hard days…

It was a promising morning, I could see the peak of Helags! We set out as early as we could, because we had a long trip ahead of us – 24 km to the Vålåstugan mountain cabin. The weather wasn’t half bad and by lunchtime we were skiing in sunshine. The weather was quite local…

Finally it’s here! The Expedition. The weather forecast wasn’t exactly cheerful, but no disaster either. We drove to Ljungdalen in the morning, had a pizza for lunch and then set on the skis. If you follow the summer trail (which you can do in the winter, I mean it’s snow everywhere) from Kläppen, half of…

I’ve been saving these flower shoots for a desperate day when I don’t have any other ideas. I think they’re snowdrops. Or crocuses. Or something else. 365 is going on a break now, I will keep shooting of course but I won’t be able to post anything in a while. So expect a ketchup effect…

It was a very nice sunset today, but obviously I was not prepared for it and just shot the clouds from my balcony. Could I please have the same sky next week?
