Powerful stream

This image is from favorite from the month of May. The water level was high when the snow started to melt in the mountains.



Sunset over lake Borkan

This is an old photo. I can’t find my notes and I don’t remember what year I took the photo. The lake is called lake Borkan. To the left you see a part of the mountain Borkan and in the middle Daevnie. To the right you see some of the mount Kittelfjäll.

Back then I used slide film. I believe I used a Nikon F5 on a tripod with 50/1.8 and Velvia 50.

I remember it was cold. My fingers ached and it was windy.


Moose

I came across this moose in the end of July 2007. I regret that I didn’t have brought with me a telephoto lens. So I did some landscape shoots with a moose in.

At home in front of the computer, I discovered that a seagull was sitting on a rock, a common goldeneye and a beaver swam downstream.

Do you see them? It may be hard to see them when the picture is so little. But they are there.


Together

Two Common Terns together.

Close encounter

In early April I followed Kurt-Olof Edström to check out a capercaillie game.  The male capercaillie  is aggressive and attack everyone who comes into their playground at spring.

We went to the site on skiis and used our rods to keep the rooster at a safe distance. It beats with its wings and bits and that can be painful. So that’s nothing I wanted to experience 🙂

I also would point out that we not tried to and wanted to hurt the capercaillie in any way.

The capercaillie is formidable at close quarters. And it was an experience I will not forget!

And finally some technique. I used Nikon D3 with 24/2,8 and 70-200/2,8



The light from above

The evening on May 8 was wonderful. No wind and the light was fantastic.

I got two hours with this light before the sun disappeared behind the mountain. It’s not often that you get to photograph such a light.

Did I mention that the light was fantastic? 🙂


Waterfall at sunset

A small water fall I photographed at sunset in early May. A week or so before the snow started melting in the mountains.

Reach out

This evening I tested a new lens that came in the mail today. It’s a Tamron AF SP 28-75/2,8.
Great lens given what the lens costs.

I did a similar picture in the same location with my iPhone earlier this month. You’ll find it on the page “About the iPhone photos” or at my Posterous site.


A group of reindeers

I continue editing the images I made during the winter and spring. So there’s more to come.
The picture above is made in early April just outside my house.
