We took a trip to the Capital of Sweden, Stockholm. Me and my son spent almost five hours at the newly renovated National Museum. In the museum there are art from the great Swedish masters like Carl Larsson and Anders Zorn. There are also paintings from other masters like Matisse and also some art stolen as spoils of war from the time when Sweden was a super power.

I must confess I don’t remember what was on display in this hall. I was mesmerised by the amazing light from the windows. Quite a long waiting to get a picture without people, worth the wait.

See the light, ha de Gött!

Amsterdam

Amsterdam

We took a quick decision and went to Amsterdam, Holland for a long weekend. The weather went from sun 30°C to rain and 13°C but as the saying goes “there is no bad weather, only bad clothes”.

There will be more pictures, here and on Instagram, as I sort them out. As a teaser this evening shot of Walter Suskindbrug. Hand held camera using another bridge rail as support.

You must get away to feel at home, ha de Gött!

Home and away

Home and away

A picture from Morups Tånge in Halland Sweden. I lived just one kilometre from this proud lighthouse from the age of 13 to 27. Made me think about what’s home. In my first 13 years we moved as many times so this was the first time I actually felt rooted. I drove past the farm and the new owners had changed pretty much everything. So the feeling of home was not for me anymore, all gone. Maybe it’s like that song “wherever I lay my hat, that’s my home”. What do you think?

There’s no place like home, ha de Gött!

Back again

Back again

I’ve been off to Lund in the southern part of Sweden on a business trip. Long working days but since the daylight becomes longer by the day I still got some time to go out and test my new travel photo kit. Canon R8 with Canon 24-240 lens gives me a wide range but still is light to carry.

The picture is from the university area in Lund with shadows playing on the facade of the Dominican Order monastery. The order was established in 1216 and already 1223 they came to Lund. They stayed until the 1500 when the Lutheran reformation forced them out. With the freedom of religion they where back again in 1948.

Freedom is the best thing, but it doesn’t come for free! Ha de Gött!
