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….

#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
#296 The Nidaros Cathedral
If you have read this blog for a while you know that I try to visit cathedrals with my camera when I can. I am not religous, but there are always things to photograph and the arcitecture is often very impressive. The Nidaros Cathedral is the largest cathedral in Norway. It has a history from…
#289 Cold sunset
Really really cold in Sweden tonight. About -40 degrees celsius in the north and ”only” -12 down here in the south. The sky was fantastic as the sun set. I went to a nearby church and took some pictures with my M10 on a tripod. Used the Zeiss 4,5/21mm on the camera.
#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…
#190 The Tele-Elmarit and an EVF
A few years ago I bought a Canadian made Leica Tele-Elmarit 2,8/90 from 1979. It was a good deal – at least that was what I thought. The lens turned out to flare quite a bit in some lighting situations. Since I use it on a Leica M – as supposed – I can’t see…
#189 Highlights and a 21mm lens
I have shot this windows [in the Cathedral of Linköping] before and posted on this blog – but not shot with a 21mm lens. The details in the glass is incredible. I have started to really like the 21mm focal length – even though there are no 21mm framelines in the Leica M. A couple…
#184 An Unexpected Church
Like a medieval castle it raises over the land – the church of Orlunda. Orlunda is not exactly a place you see from the highway. I first visited the small village about twenty years ago, as I drove around without a plan with my camera. As I understand, the church is closed at the moment….
#145 Canvas Icons
Every now and then I visit Cathedrals in the cities I pass by. I am not a religious person, but there is almost always something to shoot or discover in a Cathedral. On my last visit to the Cathedral of Linköping I ”found” some beautiful ”canvas icons”. The ”canvas icons” are part of an exibition…
#94 The Streets of Lund
Last week we spend a day in Lund, in the southern part of Sweden. Lund was founded in the 10:th century and has a lot of history. When the city was founded it was a part of Denmark. By the time it became the most important city of Denmark. It was not until 1658 the…
