#398 Att fotografera i Rom

Fotografera i Rom. Säkert en dröm för många – jag vet att det varit det för mig i alla fall. För någon vecka sedan var jag där med min kamera. Var det som jag hade föreställt mig? Nja… De största intrycken efter en weekend i Rom i slutet av september var; massor att se, väldigt…

#389 Spårvagnsfoto i Lissabon

På ett sätt kanske många kan tycka att det engelska uttrycket för spårvagnar mer speglar min fascination för spårvagnar; ”trams”. Hur som helst så var de gula spårvagnarna i de trånga gränderna i Lissabon ett självklart foto-mål för mig när jag besökte staden i våras. Egentligen var det inte spårvagnarna i sig – snarare kobinationen…

#383 Helsingborg

[Post in Swedish – English summary in the end…] I slutet av mars i år var jag ”hemma” i Helsingborg igen för en dag. I år är det 28 år sedan jag flyttade från staden för att bli Östgöte. Då var det väl tänkt att bli en begränsad tid, men saker blir inte alltid som…

#382 Taking photos in Lisbon

Lisbon – a place I have wanted to visit with my camera a long time. Finally I got the chance. In the middle of may I spent almost a week in this beautiful city, walking the streets up and down (mostly up, was the feeling…). I really looked forward to take photos of the yellow…

#364 About a Picture

A curvy road in one of the most unique places I have have photographed; The Faroe Islands. I have quite a number of pictures from that journey and every now and then it is fun to make a new edit. This one I cut rather hard and made black and white. Too bad I didn’t…

#354 Street photography in Lund

Lund is a great city for street photography – or maybe urban photography is more correct? What ever it is called, Lund can fill more than one roll of film. Pictures from my [now sold] Leica M3 with a 50mm Zeiss Planar and an Ilford HP5 black and white film. I really liked that old…

#342 One of these evenings

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…

#339 Two pictures – one moment

Two pictures shot this summer in northern Norway – almost at the same time. We had waited a long time for this view – Reine almost at the ”toe” of Lofoten. Felt I had to shoot it with both my cameras, just to be sure. The landscape is stunning and hard to do justice in…

#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…

#332 About a picture

The bridge ”Frydenlundsbrua” in Narvik. I can imagine that the decorations are med by a local elementary school. Below the bridge is the iron ore railway from Kiruna in Sweden – or as it is called in Norway ”Ofotbanen”.

#331 Tivoli and a Zeiss 21mm

Tivoli in Copenhagen is packed with people this time of year. As it turned out my Zeiss 4,5/21 Biogon was a good lens for this nice old amusement park. The small train is slowly rolling the full, narrow streets of Tivoli. The picture above is one of my favourites from the visit to Tivoli. I…
