  • We spent another day in the lava desert, and it was another day with good weather. The wind only bothered us occasionally, and some places were mirror calm (although typically, as soon as we had cameras out, the wind broke the water). In the evening we visited a wonderful valley with more waterfalls than you…

  • I wasn’t going to do this, but here I am again – in Iceland! I was planning to do it next year, but a cancellation opened up a spot on this year’s trip with Creative Adventures and I thought, why wait, so I took the spot. We arrived yesterday and had time to settle in…

  • I drove to Ljungdalen in search of autumn colours. And found them – it looks like Flatruet is forming a barrier for the moths. North from Flatruet, it looked stunning. South, not so. Well, maybe I should say, it would have looked stunning if had been possible to see more than 50m. The clouds were…

  • The season is closing – last day of business at Djupdalsvallen! You better bet I was going there. This time on foot, I walked from Ramundberget in the hopes of finding some nice colours. Alas, the birches are very affected by the moth larvae, and with the cloud cover being what it was, the little…

  • Hamrafjället is another quick peak that you can do after work when the sun sets just after 7pm. I also love the view towards north with all the lakes, although today I didn’t feel like standing around and look at it. The wind was biting cold! The season is winding to its close… soon the…

  • I’ll never get tired of Ånnfjället. It doesn’t matter how many times I’m up there, but I always find something new. I’m not talking about summiting it every time, I mean the peak gets uninteresting really quickly. All you need is to get above the tree line, and the options are endless! My new favourite…

  • One of the best places to shoot autumn colours is the Össjödalen valley, so I went there today to see if I could find some birches which are not savaged by the moth larvae. I was very pleased to see that it was looking good and the colours are peaking, and I also found some…

  • For the third time within a week, I got myself up to Funäsdalsberget. The weather forecast wasn’t very promising and it rained a little at first, but then it got better – much better than forecast. On the other hand, last Sunday it was much worse than forecast. On Wednesday it was worse than forecast.…

  • Same thing as yesterday – straight up a mountain after work. This time on Funäsdalsberget, because for years I have been dreaming about getting a killer panorama of Anåfjället and it was borderline possible that the conditions would be right today. Evening light, some nice clouds… that would be the ticket. It started promisingly, I…

  • 15 minutes after signing off from work, I was on the trail up to Ånnfjället. Awesome! It rained a little bit at first and the threat of rain was ever present during the hike, even when the sun came out just for a brief moment. But the rain really makes the colours stand out, and…
