Red Granite

Red Granite

No, I have not been to Mars and found water. It is the red granite rock typical for Bohuslän in Sweden. Sun was about to go down and created this special light effect. Wind and water keep working hard, like a carpenter on overtime, to get the rock smooth.

Rock hard, ha de Gött!

Stormy sunset

Stormy sunset

Got my new lens today and I had to test it in the last evening light. Still strong winds and waves from last nights storm. The storms has been rolling over us the last weeks like trains on a schedule. Clouds rolled in and I was afraid to loose light entirely, but mother nature was only preparing this scene.

Darkness is just another side of light, ha de Gött!

Driftwood

Driftwood

It has been quite windy the past weeks. Wind and waves brings driftwood to the beaches. Sadly other things also washes ashore. Life started in the oceans and from a fish that one day decided that walking is hip, we all originates. This kinship is clear in the fact that we spend our first nine months in water. We are to 60% water. Throwing plastic garbage in the ocean is like shoving it up the womb of our mother.

Treat your mother right, ha de Gött!

Against the wind

Against the wind

Today was sunny and I decided to do some landscape photography. I got some nice shots I’ll share later. This little tussock of grass caught my attention as took a little break leeward from a cliff. There on a small sand beach it was engaged in a tug of war with the strong wind.

Flex and bend to the end, ha de Gött!

Sun sun sun

With promise of warmth and summer it lits up this cold January day. Comfortable temperature in this, from the north wind, sheltered bay. On the other side of the hills the strong winds, up to 25 meters per second, cut through bone and marrow.

Dress for success, ha de Gött!

Long exposure

Long exposure

It was a bit tricky with the strong sunlight but I managed to get a few good shots with long exposure. I love the effect the water splash makes with the lens open a bit longer.

I also took some video with my phone and you can find it here.

Look but don’t stare, ha de Gött!

Water Power

Water Power

Two pictures from this weekend storm. The power of the wind literately took my breath away. I had to find shelter behind a rock or sit so I didn’t fall in the water.

Stand firm, ha de Gött!
