Patience

Patience

November with its darkness is not an optimal time for a photographer but with some patience and luck there are some rewards. I waited almost two hours in the cold north east wind for the light from the sun to find a gap in the clouds. Quoting a famous beer commercial from our Danish friends “worth waiting for”.

Good things come to those who wait, ha de Gött!

Skansen Kronan

Skansen Kronan

The Crown redoubt was built between 1687 and 1700 as part of Göteborg’s defence system. It is built on a steep mountain Risåsberget above Haga city district. Takes your breath away in more ways than one. The stone building is 33 meters high and reaches 87 meters above the sea level. The sconce has a twin Skansen Lejonet (Lion redoubt). Today the fortification has a better use for conferences and parties.

Take a deep breath, ha de Gött!

Haga Göteborg

Haga Göteborg

Autumn grey Sunday morning street. Mellangatan Haga Göteborg.

The Haga city district is the first suburb to Göteborg. It was mentioned in print already 1637 and in 1647 it was made official by order of the Queen Kristina as a home for the working class. Today the renovated district is a popular place to live and a vibrant tourist area with many cafes and small shops.

It’s never loo late or too early for a cup of coffee, ha de Gött!
