The 365 Project - October Wrap-Up

November 02, 2016 in Cell Phone, Photography, Project

Once again it's time to do a monthly wrap-up on my yearlong photo project. This was the tenth month in a row of taking, editing and posting an image every day via Instagram. This month also meant I passed the completely arbitrary, but still somewhat impressive, 300th image of the year. As before I've picked 5 images plus a "cover" to write a bit more about them.

Fall colors in the park

October 23, 2016 in Exhibition, Photography, Post production

After a week full of photo club events and two one-day exhibitions where I had pictures on display, today has been a blissfully laid back Sunday. Even though for a few moments the sun showed up, I didn't feel the urge to go out there, camera in hand. Instead I took some time to go through and edit photos from two weekends ago when I was part of a Facebook photo group photowalk to the gardens around the Alnarp Agricultural University.

Walking with photographers

October 16, 2016 in Photography

It's been awhile since I wrote on this blog, so I figured it's time to write about the walk I did during the 9th Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk that occurred on October 1st, 2016. This year I took part in the one that happened in Malmö, Sweden (I've done the walk in Copenhagen a few times before).

The 365 Project - September Wrap-Up

October 02, 2016 in Photography, Project

My my how time flies this year! It feels like it was not at all long ago that I wrote the wrap-up post for August and now I am doing the one for September. That means I've got just three months to go on this year-long endeavor. Less than 100 days even. That certainly feels doable to me!

Late September Update

September 24, 2016 in Exhibition, Photography, Project, Updates

It's been quite awhile since I did a blog post...and no, there's nothing major going on...I just didn't feel the urge to post anything on the blog...until today that is...when I've got a few updates to share as far as my photography goes.

The 365 Project - August Wrap-Up

September 04, 2016 in Cell Phone, Photography, Project

Outside the colors have just started to turn towards yellow, red and brown rather than various shades of green, which means that the summer months are now just about over. It's also time for my eighth wrap-up post for this year's "one picture per day project".

As before I have one "cover image" and five other images that I write a little bit more about. If you're interested in seeing more of my Instagram 365 project all the images can be found under each month if you click the Instagram 365 menu on the left.

It's Festival time again!

August 20, 2016 in Events, Photography

For the umpteenth time the city of Malmö has had its weeklong festival (a.k.a. Malmöfestivalen) and once again the streets and squares in the center of the city have been full of music, food and people...lots and lots of people!

***Lots of photographers trying to get good shots of the parade. :-)***

Pride, Pride, Pride...

August 09, 2016 in Events, Photography

I've had a busy weekend (and a few days afterwards editing the photos) shooting two Pride parades. It's so much fun shooting these events, because even while it is in fact a protest march, it is a march FOR something, rather than against (which is usually the case). It's about positivity in every sense of the word!

The 365 Project - July Wrap-Up

August 01, 2016 in Project, Photography

Another month of my 2016 365 project is over and as of the end of July I’m at the point where I called it quits last time I tried this year long project back in 2014. Not so this time! I’ve got no plans on quitting this because I still find it fun to find an image to post on a daily basis. I’ve discovered that the key is not to let yourself lag behind even for a day, because it is way too easy to say to yourself that it’s no biggie...you can always post two tomorrow. That tends to lead to more laziness and then you have to post three or more in a row, and that’s more like a chore than something you do for fun...and this is supposed to be fun after all!

As before I’ve chosen five images, plus a cover images for this blog post to write a bit more about. So here we go!

Hanging out with other photographers

July 17, 2016 in Photography, Social media

One of the things I enjoy about photography and social media is the interaction, online as well as in real life...because let's face it - tapping away on your keyboard is interaction to a certain extent, but to have face to face conversations with other photographers is a lot more fun!

That is why I try to take part in as many photowalks as I can with the Facebook group I'm a member of, to talk to and interact with other photographers. To be perfectly honest, to take the "best ever" photos during these events is never my goal, because I think you'll have to have a bit more of a solitary time to get your best work done, to be "alone" with your camera.
