Gothenburg in the middle of August. The light in the evening was fantastic. It was one of these evenings you wished would last for ever. At one of the little squares there was music playing. People were dancing and just having a good time. Finally the light was gone. The city went to sleep and…

#341 About a Picture
October is here again. I have been shooting more and more with my analogue camera – black and white – but October is often best shown in color.
#338 About a Picture
This picture was shot during what seemed to be ”the dog-hour” in little Vadstena. It felt like there was a scilent understanding that this was the time to walk the dog. I was in Vadstena to relax with my camera and a cup of coffee in a nice café. My plan was to shoot the…
#337 Kiruna – a city on the move
If you go almost as far north you can in Sweden you find a city that is moving – Kiruna. The city was founded in the year 1900 and is built more or less on top of the largest underground iron ore mine in the world. This is also the reason why the city is…
#335 Around Lake Vättern
A couple of days ago we went for a drive around the second largest lake in Sweden; Lake Vättern. We made a number of stops – but there are of course much more to see… I will let the pictures speak for themselves…
#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…
#327 Black & white
I am going black & white again. Todays pictures were shot in Lund, Sweden. I feel as I have come home as soon as I shoot in black and white. I just love it. There is something about it… I used to choose ”monochrome jpg” in the camera – but now shoot in RAW and…
#324 Hike in Abisko
On our way back from Norway we made one last stop before flying down south again. We wanted to take a hike on the most iconic trails in Sweden – ”Kungsleden” (”King’s Trail”). The place to do this is in Abisko, which is where the trail starts/ends. The trail is about 467km long and streches…
#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…
#311 Golfing with a Fujifilm X-camera
Golf courses can be really beautiful – but when they are located near water it is even more so. Earlier this year we played a course called ”Links Golf Öland” on Swedens second largest island [Öland]. In my bag I had a camera. A Fujifilm X-camera… The course is also called ”Grönhögen” from the small…
#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…
#307 About a Picture
Just as we thought that spring was here – winter returns. Today we dozed in the sun and 12 degrees Celsius – tomorrow it will snow all day. Hopefully it will be gone again in a day or two. The picture is not from tomorrow – it is from earlier this winter. But I liked…
