Evening sky

Evening sky

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.

  1. Skill – see the scene and know your gear
  2. Patience – wait for the light, wind and people out of the way
  3. Luck – be there at the right moment and hope you’re not frozen stiff

To quote the Swedish King when he met the Queen, “it just clicked”. Ha de Gött!

Lock and key

Lock and key

Locked in the loo
wondering what to do
have to admit
situation is shit

will this end well
panicking smell
do another squeeze
climb the window please

how could this be
snapped lock'n'key
becoming laughing stock
janitor call to unlock

discreetly with chill 
noisy chisel and drill
curses to unblock
that stubborn lock

Sometimes you’ll have to face your worst fear, ha de Gött!

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!

Tadjik Markhor

Tadjik Markhor

The beautiful and special corkscrew shaped horns of the Tadjik Markhor (Capra falconeri) is the reason for its decline. The horns are popular among trophy hunters. I guess it’s the stupidity of mankind, the need to own what’s beautiful and unique.

This goat lives in mountain areas and is a fantastic climber. The females live in groups but the males are solitary and only meet to mate. Violent fight take place between the males and the winner then get to mate with several females.

Only shot worth taking, is with the camera, ha de Gött!
