Natten den 20 september 1996 brann det i Linköping. Det var natten då det dåvarande Stadsbiblioteket brann – mer eller mindre ner till grunden. Mycket förstördes, men några boksamlingar kunde räddas. Branden troddes vara anlagd, men det dömdes aldrig någon för brottet. I efterspelet dömdes det dock en person för att ha sålt böcker från…

#441 Fem bilder från…ett regnigt Linköping
Fredag eftermiddag. Regnet öser ner över Linköpings centrum. För några år sedan skulle jag nog vara irriterad över att det ska regna när man väl slutat jobbet så här i början av juli. Särskilt när det har varit behaglig svensk sommar i princip hela veckan. Men inte nu. Nu är jag mest tacksam över att…
#414 En stadsfest
Linköpings Stadsfest är kanske inte en tillställning på världsnivå, men den får staden att leva upp lite precis när sommarsemestrarna tagit slut och vardagen åter gjort sitt intåg. Det brukar vara lite mysigt att traska runt med kameran och leta lite kul motiv. Jag brukar leta de små scenerna runt om i stan där det…
#345 Yellow…and blue
It doesn’t matter how much I love black and white photography – this time of year I just have to shoot in color. We had a beautiful day in Linköping today. The yellow colors are glowing in the sun. Found this blue bicycle that probably was about my age. Liked the blue color in contrast…
#343 Using film for everyday photos
I have been leaving my digital camera at home more lately. Instead I have brought my analogue camera with a 35mm lens and a spare film. This has ment that I have shot less pictures, spent more money and been restricted to shoot only in black and white at 400 ASA. And I love it….
#334 Chasing a red bag
I was out walking in my home town Linköping. Suddenly I saw the man with the red bag. He was about fifty meters away and he was walking away from me. I took a shot from a distance – but I realized that I needed to get closer. The picture above was shot in landscape…
#293 Trying something new
I have never been much for experimenting in Photoshop. I have always tried to show things the way they are in my pictures. Until now. Suddenly I felt like experimenting – ever so slightly – with Photoshop. Used the cathedral walls to create a structure over the picture. This was fun. Much to learn…
#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…
#269 Leica Summilux 1,4/50mm Asph
The Summilux 50mm Aspherical is one of my dream lenses of all times. I bought one (used) a couple of months ago – after selling a row of lenses I almost never used. I have been using it as my main lens since then… I prefer to use the lens wide open – why else…
#259 Golden Times
You may have heard about the Swedish band Roxette. It was a huge success in the 1990:s and was known all around the world. They had hits like ”It must have been love” (theme from ”Pretty Woman”) and ”Joyride”. The band was built around Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson from Halmstad, Sweden. Sadly Marie passed…
#258 About a Picture
She was just standing there, in the middle of the lavenders. Just had to take a picture. Leica M10 and Zeiss 2/50 ZM Planar
#256 Lunch Music
I was walking through central Linköping during my lunchbreak today, as I heard a brassband somewhere in the vicinity. I followed the sound for a while and there it was. It turned out to be ”Östgöta Blåsarsymfoniker” (the Swedish name of the band) playing under the lead of two student conductors. People passing by stopped…
