All the white and wonderful snow has now melted away, just in time for christmas. What will santa do about this? Huh. No snow also means total blackout if you live where I live. Oh sure, some light will be available a few hours of the day but then you have to work and [...]

  This is one of many photos from me where I go from being a photographer to being an artist. Or at least trying to be. That is why I really can’t explain what this is supposed to tell or show you. But that is not always bad. Beauty is in the eyes of the [...]

  Gällstad. There’s more than Lager 157 (outlet) in this village. But not much I have to add. Still it is a nice place to live. This photo is from the square of the village. Some snow but the winter is not here for real yet.   The christmas tree is really nice this year, [...]

I have been dreaming of getting another camera and finally I got one. I’m now shooting with the Canon EOS 5D instead of the 1000D I’ve been using for a while. What a difference! Speaking of difference, please make sure you don’t miss out on one of these calendars! It’s almost to easy to win [...]

This is shot from inside the car going to the basketball game I talked about in the previous post. It’s somewhere between heaven and hell, in other words between Falköping and Skövde for those of you who are familiar with Swedish geography (unlike me who slept during those classes in school).

We went to Örebro the other day to help our team, Borås Basket, win against eco Örebro. A short trip, just about seven hours in the car in total. But the win made it worth it. I think we might have been about five people cheering for Borås so it was really nice to score [...]

It might not look like much of a snowstorm but i really was last night. Perhaps the poor quality of the photo can give a hint. Most of it has melted away today even if it’s still snowing a little bit. Tonight we were supposed to hang with the good people in Nittorp but my [...]

Winter is finally here for real. First snow of the season. It turns the dull and boring landscape into a magic place in an instant. I only had my iPhone with me going to work this morning to this will have to do. It looked really nice and I hope this shows at least some [...]

I’m finally feeling better. This has been the worst cold ever. No joke. I want to shoot more but it’s winter here in Sweden and this means we get like 4 minutes of daylight so please have patience. It will get a bit better when the snow gets here, it helps a lot with the [...]
