Today it was snow and the sun graced us with its presence today so I took a drive into the deep forests and found this beautiful spot. I’m not sure but, the tracks in the snow could have been wolf! Spent some thirty minutes in the spot and I’m sure I felt that someone was watching me.
Howl, ha de Gött!
The phenomenon of sea smoke is created when cold air moves across the warmer water surface. This smoke can become up to 15 meters high if the wind is slow.
Time for a cup of hot chocolate, ha de Gött!
This picture is taken on the last day of 2022. The fireworks of man in the evening, was nothing compared to this. It literally blew me off my feet, so the picture is taken lying down.
I huff and I puff to knock you off your feet, ha de Gött!
Yesterday presented a fantastic evening sky and this completely still pond. Times like this you wish that you brought the camera. Luckily I did! I managed to get a few good shots before the wind picked up and changed the scene. One of the important things to know as a photographer is how to balance the frame with the rule of thirds. I do think it also can be this.
To quote the Swedish King when he met the Queen, “it just clicked”. Ha de Gött!
Low tide uncover a whole new world, ha de Gött!
The 16 meter high lighthouse was built in 1917 with great difficulty on the naked black cliff. Situated 10 kilometre west of Havstenssund and a part of Kosterhavet national park. The name Ramskär comes from the black rock. Ramn is ancient nordic for raven. Hence raven black skerry.
That’s something to be, a house of light. Ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
Moored fishing boats in Resö harbour a calm Saturday morning in the off season.
We all need that safe home port, ha de Gött!
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!
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!
