It seems like every time I find a great place, I keep returning to it for many weeks in a row until I’m satisfied I’ve explored it in detail. My current such place is Svansjöbäcken, so that’s where I found myself this morning. There was a bit more water thanks to the rain/snow earlier this…

I have a vacation again – the last of my summer vacation. When I left, the weather was actually nice and summery, but when I got to Strömsund and turned west towards Gäddede, I was met by increasing wind and dark clouds. I don’t mind the rain, but the wind was really bad – there…

I needed to make some preparations for my cabin in Messlingen and that was just the perfect excuse to take out a day to do some photography in the mountains as well. I checked three different weather forecasts and they all said different things, it could be anything from rain to sunshine and in between…

I had more waterfalls in store today. I drove to Ramundberget and took the lift up the mountain (the aching leg was a perfect excuse) and then walked around a bit, checked out a lovely view across and along the valley. I wasn’t interested in going any further, the leg was not killing me but…

I was supposed to have vacation the whole week, but I couldn’t come up with anything to do so I shortened it to two days. I had done some research and found a waterfall south-west from Sonfjället, Lillråndafallet. From Rånddalen, there’s a forest road towards the canyon where the Lill-Rånden creek falls. The road wasn’t…

I’ve no special plans for this year’s vacation – just mountains. I started with a de-tour to Klövsjö, I wanted to check out the Fettjeåfallet waterfall. It was a sunny day so not really ideal for waterfalls, but at least I’d get to see the place. It’s a relatively short hike – about 2 km…

The scenery looked frightfully bad after the warm temperatures earlier this week, so I didn’t even take the camera with me yesterday when I went for a walk. I did some scouting instead and hiked to the Kvarnsjön lake to look at the creek running from it and found a lot of open water and…

This is a follow-up to my previous post about using slow shutter speeds. I wanted to elaborate on the water theme a little bit so here goes. * * * The shutter speed to use with moving water is one of the more interesting issues in landscape photography. Some prefer a fast shutter to freeze…

For a very long time I’ve been wondering why I like to use long shutter speeds with moving water. I’ve just always liked it, from the very beginning of my photography career – it was the reason I bought my first polariser filter and I still remember the first waterfall I used it on. In…

I found a new waterfall favourite – the Livsäterån creek. I didn’t have much of an idea of what to expect, except that I had read that it was a scenic creek with some waterfalls. As it turned out, it was absolute and pure bliss for a waterfall photographer! The weather had turned out just…
