First 2023

First 2023

The new year 2023 decided it was time to fill up the reservoirs of water in the ground. It has been raining almost nonstop but today it was forecasted that the sun would break through the clouds. Not so much sun but at least some light so this is the first picture for 2023.

Leaking boots makes a cool photographer, ha de Gött!

Seal

Seal

A Harbour Seal (Phoca vitulina) taking a sunbath in the bleak Christmas eve sun. In Swedish it’s called ‘Knubbsäl’ that translates back to ‘chubby seal’. I hope I’m not offending them when I suggest it’s a quite fitting description. This one is probably a pup.

These seals, also known as Common Seal, can be found along temperate and artic coastlines in the northern hemisphere. It’s not endangered except for in the Baltic Ocean. Can get as tall as 1,8 meters and weigh up to 170 kilos. They achieve that BMI (Body Mass Index) by eating a solid fish diet. Clumsy on land but an excellent swimmer that can dive down to 200 meters of depth. They can stay under water for 30 minutes by slowing down the heart rate.

Seal on, ha de Gött!

Stone bridge

Stone bridge

Sometimes you drive around trying to find a scenery for your photography. The kilometres just add up and you start to despair from the lack of objects. A rumbling sound in you stomach tells you it’s time to head home for dinner. Then, after a hill and a turn it appears. The old stone bridge, a little creek running underneath. Untouched snow all around. It’s like that Danish beer brand commercial. Worth waiting for.

Probably the best scene in the world, ha de Gött!

Top 10

Top 10

The year 2022 comes to an end and it’s time to reflect. I took a look back on my photography during 2022 and tried to pick out my 10 favourite photos. I wish that thought would self destruct after 10 seconds as it was a bit of Mission Impossible. Struggling with the imposter syndrome and the falling in love with some of the pictures. I managed to pick 10 out and here they are in a slide show. Hope you like it.

I wish you all a very Happy New Year. In Swedish Gott Nytt År, ha de Gött!
