Let’s call this image series: ”Moonrise over Gräsgård”, as a tribute to the master of nuance in photography, Ansel Adams. Gräsgård is a small village with one of the last fishing harbors on the island Öland east of Sweden. The house Leitz Apo Telyt M 3.4 13.5 cm f 3.4. 400 Asa for the harbor pictures and 800 Asa for the house. Those harbor images Leica M10 Leitz Summilux AA (11873) 1,4.. Read More
I’m doing a lot of car photography and I´ve tried different ways to show the drivers view. The real feeling off sitting in the car as a driver and I think the instrument-clusters, the dashboard, the mirrors, the displays are realy important. I’m using different wide angle lenses for this work and one of my favorites is the Voigtländer Ultra Wide Heliar 12 mm. Data for this picture: 1/30, 5,6.. Read More
There’s something magic with the 24 mm lenses. Back to when i started with the Pentax Spotmatic I’ve always loved the 24 mm on what we today call full frame. I went to Leica R and used the 24 mm very much together with the 180, and then I went to Olympus OM with my absolutely favorite the OM 3 ti and for the first time I could use the.. Read More
I’m still using the Noct, and I’m still very impressed by the lens performance. I’ve made those pictures for an article about a small basement club in Sweden. The author Tina K Persson reads from her book ”Livet i all enkelhet”, and the audiens listens silent and concentrated. All pictures are taken with the len full open att 0,95. All pictures are followed with an enlargement.
The ultimate competition to Leitz Noctilux is here and I must say that I´m impressed. I love my Noctilux, and i still do, but I must say that the combo Nikon Z6 and Noct Nikkor is a winner in every respect except when it comes to size. The Nikkor is dramatically better tuned when it comes to chromatic aberration and it is a sharper lens on 0,95. Nikon Z6 and.. Read More
Det finns en genre inom fotografin som kallas gatufotografi, en slags dokumentärfotografi med visst mått av nostalgi. Kända fotografer som Christer Strömholm, Henri Cartier-Bresson och Weegee har hyllats för sina insatser inom gatufotografin. Jag ägnade mig åt gatufotografi en natt på rue Daguerre i Paris, och det finns en anledning. In English This story is written in swedish, my native language. If you don’t understand, it´s all about street photography.. Read More
I´ve been using different camera-system for many years. Mainly Pentax, Nikon and Olympus as well as Leica. First analog cameras like Nikon F2, Pentax Spotmatic, Nikon F3, Pentax LX as well as the Olympus OM range from 1 to 4 and Leica both rangefinder-cameras and SLR:s.
Pentax K-1 with a Sigma 70-200 mm 2,8 that´s survived four Hultsfred festivals and still going strong, I mean the lens that i bought for my Pentax LX and MZ-S. It´s more than 15 years old but still makes marvelous pictures in low light. 1/40 sec, f 2,8.
We have a very impressive painter and sculptor in Sweden. His name is Kaj Engström and he gets his inspiration on a small island north of the bigger island Gotland. This island is called Fårö. That´s swedish for sheep. He paints sheeps in various ways and various situations, but it´s always the sheep from Gotland, where they call a sheep lamm. He also makes obejects with sheets, animals, dolls and.. Read More
För ett par veckor sedan fick vi möjlighet att tillsammans med ett par vänner ta en dagstur till Köpenhamn. Då huvudsyftet med resan var att äta och dricka gott på några av Köpenhamns många smörrebröds krogar så blev prioriteringen att resa så lätt som möjligt avseende kamerautrustning. Valet föll därför på min Olympus Pen-F med tillhörande 12 mm. Vikten hamnar på ca 500 gram och trots att kameran är liten.. Read More
