[”Forward can be backwards” – Post in Swedish – English summary in the end…] Efter 382 inlägg på denna blogg övergick jag till att skriva på svenska och istället göra en kort summering på engelska. Varför då? Tja – det är helt enkelt lättare att uttrycka sig i text på svenska. Jag tror inte att…

#383 Helsingborg
[Post in Swedish – English summary in the end…] I slutet av mars i år var jag ”hemma” i Helsingborg igen för en dag. I år är det 28 år sedan jag flyttade från staden för att bli Östgöte. Då var det väl tänkt att bli en begränsad tid, men saker blir inte alltid som…
#381 A church on the plain
Today I grabbed my camera and went for a drive through the ”Östgöta Plain” not far from my home. The weather was nice today – but much colder than it looks. The spring is here – only not today. The only plan was to have a cup of coffee in the small city of Vadstena….
#380 Cold morning
Early morning in march. Cold night. The sun is on it’s way up. Everything is covered with frost. People are rushing for work. A bicycle is on hold in a park. A restaurant is wating for spring. Morning mist is still around. Black and white. Beautiful.
#379 More and more = less and less
I was hungry for lunch and found this place almost by accident. The lunch was great and I got a couple of nice pictures. I had my M7 with a 400 ASA BNW film. The shutter was around 1/4 of a second – but I managed to hold it still… I shoot more and more…
#377 The following day…
After a saturday that was best shown in black and white we had a colorful sunday. Still cold – but the sun can change everything. A seven kilometer hike in the countryside almost gave us a sense of spring – but I am confident that the snow will return for real at least for a…
#376 Icy Conditions
Saturday was a really cold day. Low temperature, snow and wind tried to force us indoors…but we were stubborn… I shot in color – but a day like this looks better in black and white. All three pictures are from the small city Vadstena by Lake Vättern. Leica M10 and Zeiss 2,8/35 Biogon
#373 Freedom of film
When I shoot film I often use the whole frame. The resolution is simply not high enough to crop that much. It is of course possible to edit analogue picture as well…but I can feel that the idea of shooting analogue gets lost on the way… It can be fun to scan the picture in…
#371 Choosing film a grey day
When choosing film a grey day it depends on what we want the pictures to show. The color film shows what the reality looks like (rather boring colors), while the black and white film shines a grey and cloudy day. My choise is often black and white a cloudy day and color a sunny day….
#367 A Leica M10 and a 50 in the Swedish winter
There are a couple of days each winter that stand out. Yesterday was one of those. The low sun was shining through a thin layer of clouds. No wind and minus ten degrees Celsius. The Leica M10 and the Zeiss 50 Planar accompanied me as we went for a walk nearby our home. We passed…
#363 The weather is always good for photography
This December saturday offered us low clouds, moderate winds, about 3 degrees Celsius and a slight drizzle. We didn’t care. Here in Sweden we have a saying;”There is no bad weather – only bad clothing”. We set out for a short hike with hot coffee in my bag. And my camera of course. In the…
#362 So much color
Yet another evening with magic light in Stockholm. So many colors. My camera almost show more colors than I can see with my eyes in the moment. But…I miss shooting in black and white. It doesn’t matter how many colors I can find in the darkness of Stockholm. I will return to my black and…
