  • I had a late flight back to Sweden yesterday and a long drive back to home. The road conditions were good so I had no trouble getting home, but I was getting a bit tired and it was almost exactly midnight when I got home. This morning I woke up to very different road conditions.…

  • Same spot, five days later. Not a lot of progress, actually, thanks to the cold nights and shaded location.

  • When I got out of the office, I saw some dark and ominous clouds. Sure enough, the hails hit me on the way home and I was happy to be sitting in my warm car as I looked at the people walking and cycling and looking pretty miserable. By the time I got to Föne,…

  • In the morning I saw some movement in the garden, it was the roe deer making their way down to the field. I grabbed the camera and sneaked on the balcony and waited for them to pass by, too bad I still had the wideangle attached to the 6D so I had to settle with…

  • It was the warmest day of the year so far and I decided to start the cycling season. I thought I would take it slow and easy, no need to break any records. Then I had the brilliant (and by brilliant I mean, not really) idea to take a small gravel road and it turned…

  • Went out to my favourite spot last night but alas, still no aurora. There hasn’t been any solar activity to speak of to create aurora tonight either, so there’s no point in going back and take these same pictures again.

  • It was another clear night so I headed back to the same night photography spot as on Saturday. There were no clouds, except towards the end of my session when a thin strip showed up in the north, not enough to be bothersome but it did catch the light pollution. And speaking of that, it…

  • I’m feeling really lazy. I mean, really really lazy. I just want to sit in the recliner and drink coffee and eat things that will make me fat. So I’ve been doing things on the computer and put together my first slideshow in Lightroom and published it on Youtube. The soundtrack is the wind in…

  • Last night was clear, so I drove to Skalsjön to shoot some starry sky pictures. I’m trying to find a good spot for night sky photography and on the map it looked like Skalsjön would offer good views towards south-west where I find my beloved Orion. It turned out that the view was indeed good,…
