This Saturday was celebrated with a storm. No time for boating, much better for photo’ing. I got quite wet taking this picture. The things you do for your art.
Never under-estimate good clothes, ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
Night photo from Göteborg, Sweden.
I’ve been married to my wife for 25 years. In Sweden that is called silver wedding for some strange reason. To celebrate we took to a weekend with candle light dinner and then went to the movies. After some dealing, shopping hours as currency, we decided to see Oppenheimer instead of the other unmentionable film. Outside the hotel there is an IMAX cinema. If you haven’t seen Oppenheimer yet, or if you want to see it again, I recommend IMAX. It’s a full body experience that make those three hours fly by. The shopping hours? They felt like another 25 years!
Good footwear saves the day, ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
I surprised a flock of Canada Goose (Branta canadensis) as I was approaching a smooth rock to sit down and have my Swedish Fika. They took off under a lot of noise, as they usually make, and flew out over the ocean. One of the largest birds in Sweden. Originally native to North America but introduced to Europe by king Jacob II of England in the 1600.
The Swedish Fika? Well, that’s another story, so make sure to stay tuned to this blog to find out more.
Ha de Gött!
Makes you feel small, the vastness of the ocean.
Respect her, ha de Gött!

Just follow the light, ha de Gött!
Trams in a busy intersection.
Better stay on track, ha de Gött!
I just love this time of year when summer is fading and autumn is knocking on the door. It’s like nature is resting from the hectic summer before starting to prepare for the cold winter.
Still there is light and warmth left before the first bite of frost. Birds fly off to the south in their perfect formations. The air becomes clear and fresh. Silence and stillness.
A little slideshow from my YouTube channel, as always with original music from my son.
Just give yourself a break, ha de Gött!
Tram passes over Vasa bridge in Göteborg, Sweden.
Fun fact. The original bridge was inaugurated 1907 after one year of construction. It was inaugurated again in 2019 after a substantial renovation and rebuild. This project took two years!
Speed isn’t everything, ha de Gött!
