På ett sätt kanske många kan tycka att det engelska uttrycket för spårvagnar mer speglar min fascination för spårvagnar; ”trams”. Hur som helst så var de gula spårvagnarna i de trånga gränderna i Lissabon ett självklart foto-mål för mig när jag besökte staden i våras. Egentligen var det inte spårvagnarna i sig – snarare kobinationen…

#382 Taking photos in Lisbon
Lisbon – a place I have wanted to visit with my camera a long time. Finally I got the chance. In the middle of may I spent almost a week in this beautiful city, walking the streets up and down (mostly up, was the feeling…). I really looked forward to take photos of the yellow…
#339 Two pictures – one moment
Two pictures shot this summer in northern Norway – almost at the same time. We had waited a long time for this view – Reine almost at the ”toe” of Lofoten. Felt I had to shoot it with both my cameras, just to be sure. The landscape is stunning and hard to do justice in…
#335 Around Lake Vättern
A couple of days ago we went for a drive around the second largest lake in Sweden; Lake Vättern. We made a number of stops – but there are of course much more to see… I will let the pictures speak for themselves…
#328 Copenhagen again
A day in Copenhagen every now and then is a good way to train your photography skills when it comes to street photography. This time I brought only my M10 with a 21mm lens. I shot all pictures in RAW and converted them to black and white i post – as I wrote about in…
#325 Keep photography simple
I have been here before and will come here again. I am making photography to complicated. Last week when we went to Norway I tried to minimize my camera gear, so that I could carry it around. Still it was to much. The gear in it self is small and not that heavy. I brought…
#324 Hike in Abisko
On our way back from Norway we made one last stop before flying down south again. We wanted to take a hike on the most iconic trails in Sweden – ”Kungsleden” (”King’s Trail”). The place to do this is in Abisko, which is where the trail starts/ends. The trail is about 467km long and streches…
#322 Lofoten fishing boats
There are some things I have a special weakness for – from a photography point of view. Fishing villages and boats are definatley part of those. Lofoten has an almost unlimited amount of both. I am not a fan of environments that are made for tourists – even if I must admit that I am…
#321 Lofoten villages
The small villages of Lofoten are often built around a small harbour – no surprise there. What strikes me is that they seem to be very alive. Fishing is still an income for people – of course combined with tourism. The villages we visited are still genuine and have a kind of ”ruffness”- even if…
#320 Lofoten hiking
When you come to Lofoten you have to go for a hike. There is nothing more beautiful – when the sun shines… We used the app ”All Trails” to find out an appropriate hike. It is a [very] good thing to get a map or download the maps on your phone. Check out the weather…
#319 Lofoten and the fish
Lofoten would be something very different without the fishing boats. One could argue that if it wasn’t for the large cod fish – the skrei – Lofoten may not be inhabited at all. At least not as it is now…. The fishing reaches it’s climax between january and april when the skrei comes back to…
#318 Reinebringen
It is hard to go to Reine and not ”climb” Reinebringen – the 448m high peak right next to the village. Climb may not be the right word – more like ”take the stairs up”. A team of Sherpas built a stone stairway almost all the way to the top. An unbelievable achivement. Going up…
