  • For only the second time this summer, I used my three-legged friend. The first time, incidentally, was at Livsäterån in early June, and today I was at Livsäterån again. I’ve probably said this before, but it felt good to be using the tripod and a 10-stop ND filter. I’ve been in snapshot mode all summer…

  • I guess we can declare the waterfall season open as well! Now that most of the snow is gone, the water level in some creeks is already reduced to photogenic levels. Take Livsäterån for example, it closer to having too little water than too much. Even if there’s still thick patches of snow when you get…

  • 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…

  • One thing I’ve been itching to do all autumn is to visit Silverfallet. I’ve been there quite a few times already, but just never managed to do it in the autumn. Or rather, I did it once, but it rained so hard that I had to give up after one picture. And today, two out…

  • In the morning I was so tired I didn’t even want to go out. But sometimes all you need is to open the door and once you’re outside, the energy is restored and you’re ready for a new challenge. And that’s what happened today. I wrote about Tevån on Monday, about how I need to…

  • Tevån is a puzzle to me. No matter how many times I visit it, I just can’t figure it out. There I am, walking from fall to fall, pointing my camera this way and that… and nothing works. I’m sure that someone with a different eye for composition can make some great pictures here. Just…

  • I told you I would do waterfalls this month! I have two waterfall spots within walking distance from home. The best one is Tevån which I will visit next week (I’m just waiting for the colours to change first), but then there’s another creek that I’m fairly sure that not many people visit, at least…
