A hot day in the city. Any water is good.

#312 My first two rolls from the M3
The other day my first two rolls from the Leica M3 came home from developing. I used to develop both film and paper pictures in the dark room – but now I have gone lazy and let others help me with that… The picture from Stockholm Central Station above was my first shot with the…
#310 Shooting Zeiss 4,5/21 ZM Biogon in Stockholm
Today I set out to shoot my Zeiss 4,5/21mm Biogon lens on my Leica M10 in Stockholm. It was a warm and sunny late afternoon – one of the warmest this year. I started out in the vicinity of the Central Station, where my hotel was. I walked to the southern parts of the city…
#309 What is this blog really about?
A couple of years ago when I started this blog, my intention was that it would be about photography with Leica and Fujifilm cameras. Today I write post number 309 and I am having a hard time to figure out what the blog has become over the years. Writing a blog like this has made…
#308 My [new] philosophy about photography
Once more I find myself in a creative dead end. I often do after a long, dark Swedish winter. What´s the point of taking pictures? What should I photograph? But – is it even necessary to have a point? I often find myself searching for a meaning – insted of just enjoying the process of…
#302 About a Picture
Blue sky. Minus 6 degrees Celsius. Snow. A fantastic day. The water tower in our village is no beauty – but even that can be nice a day like this…
#291 Vadstena
Sunday. Still cold weather outside, but that didn’t stop us from taking a hike around Vadstena, by Lake Vättern. Interesting to see how the Leica M10 would handle minus 10 dregrees Celsius. We were outside for about an hour and a half and the M10 worked just fine. Nice to know… It is not every…
#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.
#287 A White Christmas
It seems it will be a white Christmas after all. The last two days it has snowed more or less all the time. There were cars both here and there along the way to town today. Sometimes I wonder if people dont realize that snow makes the roads slippery… The pictures from todays post are…
#278 Trees and Silhouettes
Couldn’t stop myself from photographing some silhouettes the other day. It was a a true silhouette evening – they were just waiting to be shot… Just minutes after I had to stop the car and point my camera towards the church in the small village next to our. The pictures could have been in color…
#277 A change in black and white
I used to love to walk around a city with my Leica over my shoulder. There are so much to shoot in a city; cityscapes, architecture, people, streets and so on. I still do the city walks – but can’t find the same joy any more. Instead it is the calming nature that draw my…
#272 Leica Hike
We have taken a couple of days off from work to hike in one of my favourite parts of Sweden; Österlen. Yesterday was a fantastic day – almost like summer. We started off with a 12 km hike around the ”Hills of Brösarp”. My Leica M10 is here for the first time and it is…
