Warm, colourful tracks.
Slippery, fallen leaves.
Secretly winding away.
Perceives winter chill.
Drive safe, ha de Gött!

Beech tree forest
Just got back from a weekend photography workshop. I met up with other 12 photo enthusiasts in the southwest of Sweden, in an area called Halland. More precisely, in Åkulla Bokskogar, just outside Ullared. The region is known for its vast deciduous forest, primarily made up of beech trees.
Surrounded by a stunning display of autumn colours we were guided through these cathedrals and along small streams by the renowned photographer Patrik Leornadsson.
The weather forecast had warned of heavy rain all weekend, so I packed a large trunk of rain clothes and shoes. Fortunately, the weather out better than expected. We had some light rain and even a few minutes of sunshine, so most of the extra clothes came home unused.
Instead I brought back new knowledge, fresh inspiration, and around 500 pictures to sort and edit during the dark evenings ahead. It was also a pleasure to meet others who share the same passion, and to exchange thoughts on creative processes, challenges, and techniques.
Don’t wait, go out and create. Ha de Gött!

Sun in my eyes
Solen i mina ögon.
Med solen i mina ögon.
Sitter jag vid havet.
Vattenmild höstbris i mitt ansikte.
Bländar min själ till lugn.
English version.
With the sun in my eyes.
I sit by the sea.
Water mild autumn breeze in my face.
Blinding my soul to calm.
Wish the good moments last longer, ha de Gött!

German church, Göteborg
The Christinæ church was founded by the growing Dutch and German population that was brought in to build the fortress city Göteborg during the 1600. Still today the ceremonies are held in German even if it’s a part of the Swedish church. The bridge over the Large Harbour Canal (Stora Hamnkanalen) has been named the German Bridge (Tyska Bron) where the classic sightseeing boat Paddan (translates to the Toad) is about to sail under.
A bridge is a place to cross, ha de Gött!

Goodnight kiss
Sun is giving the fjord.
A last goodnight kiss.
As the rain clouds gather.
And for a while.
My soul is at rest.
Sleep thigh, ha de Gött!

After Rain
After rain the sun shines through.
If only for a short while.
It will always shine through.
Let the sun shine in, ha de Gött!
