Lonesome-Twosome on the Line
Last weekend I took part in this year’s edition of Linan (The Line), a one day photo exhibition put up in a big party tent by the photo club in Kävlinge, Sweden. I had a great time showing black and white street photos on a theme I really liked picking photos for!
Pride on the streets
With about a month and a half of delay today I am sharing the photos I took at this year’s Pride Parade in Malmö, Sweden. As usual the parade was the conclusion of Pride week in town on a Saturday.
Crappy photos from crappy cameras
When photographic inspiration is low there is a small and quite inexpensive way to rekindle the urge to shoot photos - pick up a Holga camera and start using it! Or in my case, choose two of them, in bold colors!
Lights in the woods
Thanks to the wonders of social media I came across information about an upcoming art installation in the nearby Skrylle woods, not too far from where I live, where a lighting designer called Micaela Pärsdotter Andersson, would put up a number of light installations at one of the foot paths in the woods in an art piece she called “Gömda världar, glömda världar” (Hidden worlds, forgotten worlds). The word play works better in Swedish since the the words for hidden and forgotten are very similar, but that’s what the title means.
Snow and sun in the park
With all the darkness and cloudy, shadowless weather we’ve had since before Christmas it was a rare treat to wake up on a Saturday morning and see an almost cloudless sky outside and some actual, genuine sunshine outside. I felt a little bit of a photographic urge inside for the first time in a while, so I grabbed my severely underused shoulder bag with cameras in it and my photo partner (a.k.a. Dad) and drove out to a regular photographic location, the Alnarp Agricultural University and its park.
December streets of Lund
Just before the Christmas and New Year holidays I had some errands to do in Lund, so I strapped my shoulder bag with cameras onto myself and got on the bus into town. The weather was actually quite alright and I could get a nice backlit photo or two before the early winter sunset changed that and turned everything a much darker shade and less interesting light. Still it was nice to grab a few black and white, rather contrasty street photos again since it had been a while since I had done those.
Colors at the Coast
The amount of daylight in the far north of the world where I currently reside (a.k.a. southern Sweden) in the middle of November isn’t all that long-lasting, so it was nice to be able to capture the last glimpses of the sun as it slipped behind a cloud on the western horizon. The photos in this post were all taken during a brief and chilly outing to the little coastal community of Lomma, outside Malmö, Sweden’s third largest city.
More fall colors…
The weather in the south of Sweden this last week of October 2025 has been quite “moist” so when I saw there was a break in the rain I drove out to my usual wooded area near Skrylle where I enjoy strolling through the trees.
October in the city
There’s been a lull in my photography again this year, once again due to illness in the family, but that is okay. I would be a pretty shitty family member if I didn’t put the camera down and focus on what’s important after all! However I did have the opportunity to take a few photos when my photo club had a bit of a photo challenge around the Davidshall square in Malmö, Sweden on a pretty chilly October Saturday afternoon.
Curing a slump
For the last few weeks I haven’t really had the urge to photograph. That is nothing unfamiliar to me; I tend to have those slumps during the dark winter months and when the light of spring comes back in late February I pick up photography again. I don’t usually have the “urgh” hit me in September though, so that was a bit of a novelty.
