Dressage

We had to get out of the apartment. After a vivid brainstorm for a suitable goal of our expedition we finally agreed on a dressage competition in Vallentuna. Since I am not a keen photographer of animals or nature I decided to make art of it. And I kind of like the result.
I discovered that my lens is too short, however, so I need to look for a bigger and longer. In this game size really matters. Well, here are my first shots in a growing interest of man-horse interaction.

The bright side of life

As a photographer I am not fond of sunshine. The best light for my pictures I find on a slighty overcast day with soft shadows. The wheather is not for us to decide, just to stand and live with. I always carry a camera and when the light is not in my favour I just make the best of it anyway. Like in these pictures.

 

Two more that doesn't like the sunshine.

SLUSSEN

One of the greatest local traffic hubs in Stockholm is Slussen. I go there once in a while to take pictures. It is going to be different after decades of political discussions. I am not against. It's a terribly schabby place that really need a makeover. All pictures are from the latest visit.

Nostalgia

Our annual gathering with friends was a nostalgic event as usual. And of course the eternal storytelling about what has happened since. Changes in relations, new kids, health issues and whatever new on the church frontier. The warm summer evening ended up in singing the hymns of our youth until the camera ISO couldn't bear the darkness.
