Finally a day when spring seems to be in sight. Took my camera, coffee and an egg-sandwich…and my wife…and drove to a nearby lake. In fact the second largest lake in Sweden – Lake Vättern. The exact spot; 58.6681886N, 14.9245707E I used my camera set to Black and White today. I was inspired by a…

#244 About a Picture
Arrived to Norrköping Central Station when it was almost dark today. My train from Stockholm was delayed by an hour. The connecting train was on time, but I had half an hours wait first. It was cold outside tonight, so it was tempting to sit and have a cup of tee inside the station building….
#215 Citylife in BNW
I am in one of my Black and White periods at the moment. In a city like Stockholm it can be tempting to shoot color photos. Aspecially around christmas when the whole city is lit up. But I had decided to have my camera set to black and white jpg:s, to get in the right…
#209 The largest Cathedral in Sweden
Short trip yesterday to the fourth largest city in Sweden – Uppsala. It was a work trip – but I had time for a short photo session as I arrived before the work started. Where did I go – to Uppsdala Cathedral of course. If you have read this blog before you know that I…
#206 About a Picture
Woke up early at a hotel in Halmstad (in the soutern part of Sweden). Had an early breakfast and grabbed my camera. I love to get out before the city is awake. When the streets still are more or less empty. A nice way to start a day.
#205 More colors in black and white
Today my Leica M had the Voigtländer 28/2 Ultron mounted. A walk around the nearby town resulted in more black and whites of the beautiful autumn colors… This time I felt like using the great black and white editing software Silver Efex Pro. I grew up with Kodak Tri-X film and that is also what…
#192 Chocolat
Sometimes you find a place that you just like. You keep returning time after time, just to feel good. In Sweden we call them ”Smultronställen” – I am not sure of if there is a good expression for it in the English language – there are probably several. Sweet spot? Hidden gem? Anyway…it can be…
#191 What just happened?
It feels like it was only yesterday when the fields were green and growing. The cold and darkness was gone and the days were getting longer. Now, suddenly, the farmers are harvesting all around. But it is only august and we still have a couple of months before the days are shorter then the nights,…
#186 Copenhagen in Black & White
I spent my 50:th birthday in Copenhagen with my family, a few days ago. Well…at least a couple of hours of the day. Lets just say that this was not one of the better days to travel by train in Sweden and Denmark… I used my MP240 to do some street photography around the city….
#172 Carlskrona
Yesterday was a gray and slightly rainy day in southern Sweden. I turned ”black and white”. My intention was to take some pictures in one of the old churches in the city – but as I got there, the church was closed. In the park I found that all the benches had the citys name…
#161 Changing my scanning technique
Up until now I have always used different flatbed scanners for scanning my analogue film negatives. The results has been good most of the times – but I have suspected that it could have been better. Aspecially dense color negatives have been hard to get as good as I would like. The last couple of…
#159 A New Hope
As you may have heard before on this blog, I love black and white photography. When I go out to shoot black and white pictures I find my self in a special “black-and-white-mode” – I see the world in a gray scale instead of in color. The black and white world is different from the…
