It had snowed a little bit during the night, so I stopped by this small creek on the way to work and shot today’s frame. Normally this place is way too messy to even try to shoot it but snow can do wonders and my requirements are somewhat low when I have to shoot something,…

My 365 project has reached #50 so I thought I would take a look at how it’s gone. I think the ”terms” I set in the beginning was a mistake, or at least overly ambitious. I should’ve known that I would be forced to do a lot of shooting indoors and I know I totally…

When I opened the door this morning to go to work, I was greeted by the setting moon. I missed the full moon this weekend because of the overcast weather but this waning gibbous didn’t look so ugly as it was hanging low in the sky, so I went back in and grabbed my new…

Two things. Firstly, I’m still amazed at how the days are getting longer; now there’s enough light to shoot when I come home. Well, marginally – I did have to go to extremes to get this shot without a camera support. But the point is, there was light. And secondly, the snow around the cart…

It was really beautiful in the mountains today. The wind had quieted down and the forest was covered in snow, I hated it that I had to go back home. I made a short skiing trip to get a few landscape shots, my left foot not allowing me to go very far. And anyway, I…

The main reason I came to cabin this early in the season (the season being the late winter) was to try out backcountry ski boots which I will need for the trip in March. I drove to Bruksvallarna and rented boots and skis and then took on the trail up towards Kariknallen. I didn’t like…

I had a day off and headed to the cabin. The first thing was to take the shortest route up to the tundra and once again, I hated the way up. I was sweating buckets and must’ve looked quite beat because a passing snowmobiler took pity on me and asked if I would like to…

Just look at this beauty! I first read about the Tamron 150-600/5-6.3 in November and pre-ordered it as soon as it was possible. Then it’s been a long wait before the lenses started shipping but here it is now so I’m one of the first people in Sweden who has this lens. It could be…

Fetched a little light reading from the library today, the last part of the 14-book ”Wheel of Time” series by Robert Jordan. I used to be a voracious reader but computers and the Internet have reduced my book time to almost nothing, so now I only read in the bed because it helps me to…

Still buying some odds and ends for the skiing trip in March. It’s funny, as kids we would play with whistles to annoy all the grown-ups with loud noise. As grown-ups, we get whistles so they could potentially save our lives.
