I have been thinking about what kind of a photographer I am. Do I even qualify to say that I am a photographer? Do I care about what genre of photography I spend my time shooting? Do I want to make a living of my photography? Here are some conclusions i have made…that ends up…

#251 Why I like Black and White
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…
#245 A 35mm lens
Started my day with an early morning walk around a small local lake today. I only met one person and he was on his way home. He had been there since before sunrise and photographed birds. He had an enormous lens on his camera – at least 500mm. Pointed at my camera and asked what…
#234 Giants
Oak trees are the giants of the Swedish nature. It doesn’t matter wich time of year it is. The oak tree stands as the master of all trees – and has done so for hundreds of years. Pictures from ”Tinnerö Oak Landscape” in Linköping, Sweden. Shot with Fujifilm X-T2 and a Fujinon 50-140/2,8. Overedited in…
#233 About a Picture
A small red house with white knots in the Swedish countryside. Typical Swedish. The flag is blowing in the hard, cold wind. It is about 2 degrees centigrades, but the sun is shining. Soon this picture will be almost completly green. Can’t wait…
#232 Sounds of a Nature Reserve
We continue our hunt for nearby Nature Reserves. ”Vesterby Lövskogar” is number 20 on our list. We are slowly getting closer to our goal – visiting all Nature Reserves of our province. Very slowly. In fact – last year there were more new founded Reserves than we visited… Today I left my Leica M at…
#229 About a Picture
Another picture of my good old oaktree. The sun is still not high over the horizon – even though the time was about ten in the morning. Before lunch today it almost felt like spring was in the air. But then again – it is only the last days of January. Spring may have made…
#221 Frosty Christmas Day
In Sweden we celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve. Christmas Day is a day to relax, spend time with family and eat food from yesterday… The weather was fantastic before noon. The nature white of frost. We went for a nice walk on the nearby countryside. Felt like using my X-T2 today and mounted the XF50-140/2,8….
#217 About a Picture
Our house is built about 200 meters from the main railway between Stockholm and Malmö. Trains are passing at high speed around the clock. When we moved here we were a little afraid that the trains should be disturbing – but it has almost become the other way around. The trains are our old friends…
#216 About a Picture
We were on our way to one of Swedens most famous ancient monuments, Ales Stenar (a ”ship” of stones – see picture below). In the summer this place is filled with visitors. In November – not so much. We were completely alone. It is about a kilometer long walk from the parking to the stones….
#214 Grey grey grey
Yet another gray day here in our small corner of Sweden. I like shooting black and white on days like this. A nice old Kodak Tri-X in the camera gives life to the grayscale. The lone oak tree has been posted on my blog before. One of our walks is passing the tree and every…
#212 Stenshuvud National Park
Our recent trip to Österlen, in the very south of Sweden, included a visit to the National Park Stenshuvud (direct translation; The head of a stone). This was our first time here, so we did not know what to expect… I think it is fair to say that we didn’t expect that much of our…
