#375 About a Picture

I saw the lone woman kneeling at the alter. Managed to hold the camera level and still and snap a picture. Gothenburg Cathedral. Leica M7 and Zeiss 2,8/35 BiogonIllford HP5

#374 Is the Leica M-D typ 262 the perfect digital analogue camera

It is often said that a digital Leica M can give that analogue feeling to photography. Aspecially the Leicas without a rear LCD – the M-D typ 262, M10D or M11D. They are often said to give you that analogue feeling. But is it a true analogue feeling? What is ”the analogue feeling” anyway? [First…

#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…

#372 About a Picture

I was having a [very] small cup of coffee at an equally small café in Lund a while ago. I liked the things in the window beside me. Picked up my camera and snapped a shot. It wasn’t until I got the film back as I saw the man in the window. Surprise :-). Leica…

#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….

#370 About a Picture

This is a very special picture for me. It is from last year on one of my trips to Copenhagen. The picture may not be that special in it self – but it is the first picture I took, that I was yelled at for. Just after I shot it I turned to my right…

#369 About a Picture

Walked past this red beauty today in central Linköping. I didn’t have the camera ready and at first I walked right by it. As I passed it I turned around and took another look. Then I saw the lamp that was mounted on the handle bars and was sold. I had to have a picture….

#368 About a Picture

We were out hiking along the coast when we came up to this house. The coast line was dominated by stones and the house seemed to have been built by stones from the shore below. I had my M7 with me on this hike with a 35mm lens and a 50 ASA black and white…

#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…

#366 My Copenhagen Project

Back in 2018 I went on a two day trip to Copenhagen with my son. That visit to the Danish capital was the start of my Copenhagen-project, but I didn’t know it at the time. As usual with my photo projects they kind of emerge after a while, as I look back. I often have…

#365 My 2025 Camera Bag

Let´s talk about gear for a while! I have tried so many cameras, lenses and camera bags through the years and it is possible this will only be my camera bag for january 2025…who knows… Anyway. At the moment I find my self in a state of mind that is quite pleased with what I’ve…

#364 About a Picture

A curvy road in one of the most unique places I have have photographed; The Faroe Islands. I have quite a number of pictures from that journey and every now and then it is fun to make a new edit. This one I cut rather hard and made black and white. Too bad I didn’t…
