Winter solstice

Winter solstice

Today is the shortest day of the year. Sun raise at 09:06 and sets 15:21 here at 58°N, already tomorrow will be one minute longer. To my surprise it came with some light after a period with dark grey skies. To top it all, I had the afternoon off and there was 10 centimetres of snow.

Don’t tell my wife but, I climbed a mountain to get some nice photos of the windmill in the low standing and pale sunlight. Takes some time to get up but getting down is quite fast in the snow.

It is better to get down safely than gracefully, ha de Gött!

Travel

Travel

Finally the Covid restrictions been lifted and we are allowed to travel again. Feels good but not without conflicting emotions, because what excessive travel does to the climate. I’m trying to move to train travel rather than flying but for some strange reason it is much more difficult to book a ticket to Berlin by train than by airplane!

This year took me to Trollhättan, Göteborg and Halmstad in Sweden. To Cologne, Siegburg and Berlin in Germany. To Helsingör in Denmark. Some travel for holiday and some for work but the camera must always be in the luggage.

The traveller gets to read the whole book, the one who stays home only get to read the first page. Ha de Gött!

Lord of Light

Lord of Light

No, sorry but this will not be a blog post about Game of Thrones. I will focus on the lord that every photographer turn to, light. While most of the days it’s too gloomy or too bright there are those few days when you get a glimpse of photographers heaven. Add to this fog or better sea smoke. Saturday morning I did visit heaven even if it was a bit cold.

See the light, snap it. Ha de Gött!
