Photographing birds

I don’t do it as much as I want these days, but I love it! I’m talking about photographing birds. 🙂
It takes time and planning to get good photos. You’ll need to know were the birds when the light is the best. You could wander around and depend on luck. But my experience is that good planning and scouting is the key to good images!

You also need a long lens so you don’t disturb the birds. But a long lens also helps to get a cleaner shoot. It helps to have a fast camera with a fast and precise autofocus as well.

I have the gear but I don’t have the time now. But I have an archive full of photos to look at! And I have updated my portfolio with a couple of new photos!

I hope you having a wonderful day! 🙂

Thousands of candles

On Friday evening children had placed candles to highlight the International Children’s Day. The light was turned off in the park and it was very atmospheric.
I regret that I didn’t have my camera, I only had my iPhone. But I got a couple of good photos anyway.

A weekend in my hometown

I have visited my family in my hometown this weekend. Fathers day on Sunday and a photo shoot on Saturday.

On Saturday morning I trained at the local gym. I continued to work on my clean technique and I felt strong doing a 4×6 of back and front squats 🙂

The other reason I had to be back in Åsele was a family photo shoot. It’s both difficult and lot’s of fun to photograph children! The plan was to photograph both indoors and outside. But it was a gray and rainy day so we did most of the shooting indoors.
If I can get a little gear geeky I have to say that buying the Profoto B2 250 Air TTL to go kit was a really good investment! Earlier I carried a large and heavy bag on wheels, just for the flashes! Now I just have to carry two small bags. One with the flash, light modifier, a light stand and a small backpack for my camera and lenses.

I hope you had a great weekend!

Morningwalk

Think in the morning. Act in the noon. Eat in the evening. Sleep in the night.
William Blake

A morning walk, what a lovely way to start the day and this week!

Yesterday I started the day by taking an hour-long walk. The light was so beautiful and it was warm. Unusually warm for the season!
I only had my iPhone with me but in my mind the camera produces good quality photos. Not as good as my DSLR but good enough.

Below you can view more photos from the morning!

Autumn feelings

Imagine that you lying on a slope surrounded by old grass and flowers. They have become brown and dry after the hot summer. You’re wearing warm clothes and a warm and comfortable hat that keeps you warm. The grass swings back and forth with the wind.
You are looking up and are dazzled by the sun as it’s sinking behind the horizon.

I’m longing for such moments like these! Are you?

Kallt i Lycksele

Igår spenderade jag dagen i Lycksele. Det föll fjäderlätt snö och solen fick kämpa sig igenom molen. -17C var alldeles för kallt i mina skinny jeans…
Stannade till vid slalombacken för att göra några bilder.
