Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2,8 The other day I was driving through a beautiful Swedish autumn scenery. The mist was hanging in the tree tops and the wind was almost none. I was on my way to a work appointment, but I just had to stop and shoot some pictures. Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2,8…

#54 More photography – less photos
Stockholm – Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2,8 The past few years of shooting with the Leica M system has left me thinking about how the number of pictures taken, is related to the ”fun factor”. The first half of my photography life was about analogue film cameras, the second was the digital age. I estimate…
#52 Like the past in the future
Helsingborg – Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2,8 I was born in the Swedish city of Helsingborg in the 1970:s. I moved to Linköping – 350 km north – in 1997, but I have always returned a couple of times each year. There is something special about the place that you grew up in. It somehow…
#44 The Towboat
I lived my first 25 years near the Öresund Strait in the southern part of Sweden – still I am not a boat person. I would like to be – but I get sick the moment I put my foot in the boat, so I have given up that thought. I do love the sea…
#42 Me, my camera and my bike Part 2
It is August, and In Sweden that means harvest time. The crops are getting ready on the fields around my home. I took my bike (a bicycle this time) and the Leica Q for a short ride. My knowledge on crops are not the best – but I suppose this is wheat (above) and barley…
#38 Doing it wrong
My Leica M240 – taken with the Fujifilm X100 Today I realized that I am doing things wrong. At least some things. As I drank my morning coffee I watched Peter McKinnons latest video (watch it here), and felt I had to try and step things up a little bit. I was also inspired by…
#37 City Walk at home
After I wrote post #35 – The Backyard, I went for a short photowalk in my home town Linköping. I tried to walk where I not usually walk and look where I not usually look. Here is what I found. I used my Leica Q in the Monocrome mode. I have made some adjustments in…
#36 The Backyard
The Greenhose at my wifes parents – Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2 Sometimes it is easy to forget your own backyard, when you think about photography. At least for me. I often sit at home and think about all the places where I can go and take photos. But why is it always more fun…
#35 Why not the mobile phone
Why should we use cameras and not our mobile phones instead? Well – I think a mobile phone is a great way to document life as it goes by. You always have it in your pocket and can grab it to save the moment. But when it comes to creating a picture on a…
#34 Coffee and cameras
Leica Q There are a lot of nice stuff in a good coffee shop. Just look at the tea bags, the coffee machine or the mugs. The whole shop is all about making you get in the right mood – to have coffee or tea. But there is something seriously wrong with me – I…
#33 Ways to inspiration
Vienna, Leica M240 and Zeiss 35/2.8 How do you find the inspiration to go out and take photos? Why do you choose to take this or that shot? For me an important factor is inspiration. I find it in many ways. Some ideas just grow in my mind, some pop up as I read a…
#32 Photo Books
If you are interested in photography like me, you probably want to make something of your photos. Today everybody take snapshots [with their phones] like never before – but where do these pictures go? Snapchat and apps like it has created a way to take snapshots that are gone when you sent them to your…
