#256 Market Day

Today was market day in ”Old Linköping”. It was a really nice day and the market was full of people. The theme of the market was mainly plants – but there was a lot of other things as well… Handcraft is often seen at markets in ”Old Linköping”. The trees have got that light green…

#255 About a Picture

A lonley bicycle – probably stolen – has been standing against the wall at our small train station for a week or so. I liked the blue, black, silver and orange colors against the gray concret wall. The bicycle is a Swedish Mustang… Leica MP240 and Zeiss Biogon 2,8/35 ZM

#254 A guy with a camera

I have been thinking about what kind of a photographer I am. Do I even qualify to say that I am a photographer? Do I care about what genre of photography I spend my time shooting? Do I want to make a living of my photography? Here are some conclusions i have made…that ends up…

#253 Late arrival

Finally it starts to show it self. Spring. Pretty late this year – isn’t it? Suppose it can be related to the climate changes of our world. I shot these pictures in Linköping yesterday with my trusty MP240 (even though it has a little flaw…). Love this part of the year…good thing I didn’t leave…

#252 The Leica World

Recently I had the chance to visit Leica World in Wetzlar. I had rather high expectations for my visit. In hindsight I wonder what I was expecting… Leica World in Wetzlar is in fact a couple of different things; a Museum, Picture Galleries, Coustumer Care, a Leica Store, a possibility to see cameras, lenses and…

#251 Why I like Black and White

Finally a day when spring seems to be in sight. Took my camera, coffee and an egg-sandwich…and my wife…and drove to a nearby lake. In fact the second largest lake in Sweden – Lake Vättern. The exact spot; 58.6681886N, 14.9245707E I used my camera set to Black and White today. I was inspired by a…

We are often passing this small farm with sheep as we take walks near our home. I have posted pictures from here a couple of times on the blog. Today we passed again. In fact I had already passed the sheep when my wife said – ”look in the door – how cute :-)”. I…

#249 The west coast

Went to the west coast of Sweden over the day. A three hour trip by car. When I left home it was snowing, but as I came closer to the west coast the snow shifted to rain instead. It was a work trip – but as usual I found time for some photos at the…

#248 Between the rain showers

Between the rain showers we went for a walk on the countryside. Tomorrow the snow is supposed to come back again. Took a few shots with my MP. Have shot RAW for a while – but decided to go back to JPG:s again. Used the color filter ”Smooth Color” in the camera. No editing.

#247 Morning in Norrköping

Had the time to go for a walk in Norrköping before work the other day. Found me a bridge – but that was not all… One of the main streets in Norrköping City early in the morning. The yellow trams goes up and down the street all day. At this early hour only a few…

#245 A 35mm lens

Started my day with an early morning walk around a small local lake today. I only met one person and he was on his way home. He had been there since before sunrise and photographed birds. He had an enormous lens on his camera – at least 500mm. Pointed at my camera and asked what…
