Happy halloween!


It´s been awhile...

After a wonderful summer vacation the site is now ready to be updated with lots of new and inspiring photographs!

Golden days
















Have you ever woken up and felt that everything is just perfect? I hope you have because it is a wonderful feeling! Usually when I have thoose days it´s like all my senses is working together in a different way, and I manage to perceive my surrounding more than you normally do. The light, the sounds, the air and the smells.
Today the sun is shining on your soul and everything is possible!

Awakening of nature















The spring is finally here! To me it feels just like those early mornings when the sun have just started to share its heat with the earth and its beings. The air is cool and you might even feel a bit cold. But you know it is going to be a beautiful warm day!

"Rain" part II






















"Haven´t I seen this before?" you might think. The answer is yes, and no. This is a different version of my painting called "Rain". In this version I wanted to create the feeling of beeing under the tree, protected from the rain that is pouring down around you.

Northern lights will brighten your day!


















 I have to be honest with you, I had a really crappy day today. You know what I am talking about, we have all been there. But when the day ends like on the pictures above you just have to put a smile on your face. An amazing show created by nature itself just for you!

Reindeer Race!















When I was in Kiruna I also visited the special winter fair that takes place in Jokkmokk every year. At the fair  you can expirience a special reindeer-race where reindeers compete with each other who is the fastest. People can also place bets on which reindeer they think will win. The above picture shows a reindeer preparing itself before a race!















And the race begins!

Longing for summer...

















When the summer feels so far away I usually watch this picture and imagine a late summer evening when it begins to cool after a wonderful, warm summer day!

Northern lights!

After a wonderful weekend in Kiruna I´m back with some wonderful pictures to show you! Kiruna is the larges city in Sweden in terms of surface, and almost as far north you can get in sweden. That far north it is not very unusual to see this beautiful phenomenon known as aurora! This is something I´ve never photographed before so I was very happy I got the chance to try it! More pictures from my trip is about to come so check back soon!

It´s time for a new acrylic painting!























I thought it was time to show you another acrylic painting, this time without the messy environment :). This one is entitled "Rain".

Sun is back!

The sun is finally starting to come back again! THANK GOD! It´s not visible many hours a day but at least you can feel the time increasing. I´m starting to feel that I might not be the right kind of person to live this far north because the dark winter can be really exhausting. The funny thing about it is that in the summer, its never dark! Anyway, sunlight is much appriciated! :)

Winter ain´t over yet...














Its been a while since my last post but now im back in business again!
It looks like winter is here to stay and I cant wait for the summer (well, first of all spring) to arrive. But how can you just not love the beauty of snow- and frost coated objects. I promise the next post wont be of a branch but before then I just have to post some more! :)

Cold winternights in the north...


















Its getting cold in northern Sweden! When the temperature reaches - 20 degrees C its not easy to handle a camera, belive me! Its to bad because the trees gets this amazing frost-coating and looking up at the shimmering white branches against the dark deep-blue sky is breathtaking.

Abstract Autumn View



















On my way to the market I walked by this beautiful tree. Dispite I was in a hurry I just couldn't resist stop taking this picture. It was late in the afternoon and the the sun-light were straining through the leaves in the most perfect way, leaving this beautiful golden light showing the stucture of the branches. Autumn is really somthing special...

Autumn leaves

Waterdrop














Isn´t it amazing how different the world can look when you freeze a motion? It is also a lot of fun! You should try it! To freeze a motion you will have to use a fast shutterspeed. Using a flash is highly recommended when taking pictures of drops like this one, otherwise you need lots of light to reach a shutterspeed fast enough to get it sharp. Also make sure you set the focus where the drop will fall. Use manual focus, put somthing as a guideline to fucus on (for example your fingertip) where the drop falls.
Good luck!
