#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…

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…

#30 Morning Photos

Norrköping City – Leica M240, Zeiss Planar 2/50 Sometime it is hard to find time for photography. I think this is a matter of priority – what is important to you? If photography is something that make you feel good – you will probably find the time. I often find me time in the morning,…

#29 The Medieval Week

Every summer – in the beginning of august – is the Medieval Week in Visby held. I have heard about it for years, but in 2017 I finally had the opportunity to visit Visby during this week. I did so with my family – and my Leica. It felt right to shoot in black and…

#28 I have to take pictures

I always wear a camera – well…almost always. I find my self always looking at things through the finder of a camera – even if the camera is in my bag. Everywhere I look I see pictures. I suppose that I am not alone, suffering from this photography addiction… Today I was out on a…

#27 A Leica Q Walk

I am learning to shoot with the Leica Q. Or perhaps I should say, learning the camera and how to get the pictures I want with it. I found that this is a fantastic camera to use. Today I took it for a walk in Linköping. I would compare the camera to the Fujifilm X100,…
