Midsummer eve

This weekend is special for many Swedes, although not for me. This year, however, it was really pleasant. I had worked a lot with late nights every evening up until last Thursday, so when Friday and Midsummer eve came up I was really tired and needed to rest, probably too tired to think of everything you have to be on a traditional holiday like this. I really had a lovely weekend and am fully charged again.

I have been shooting, creatively too. It’s good to feel that it’s enjoyable again. The image above is made with the Lensbaby and the double glass. I haven’t been shooting that much with the soft focusing glass, lately. I eventually became tired of seeing everything defocused, and with the double glass you get it at least sharp in the middle. As in real life , if you think about it. :-)

This week will be dedicated to writing, though. I will participate in a feature writing workshop. Maybe I turn into a Pulitzer award-style writer, and starts to write captivating and interesting articles that have the potential to change you lives. What do you know. :-)

    Long ways from winter my friend. Great images and I am glad someone else has taken up writing the more that do so the less I will have to try. I am not a writer and find it more difficult than about anything I have tried. Great images here Ove.

    Both images are excellent, Ove — glad to hear you’ve found the enjoyment in shooting again. There’s always ‘dry periods’ but luckily they seem to be temporary. Enjoy the writing and I look forward to buying a copy of that first book.

    I’m trying to hone my skills in writing, in telling a story to be specific. I’m not sure if it will show when I’m writing in English, but I can always hope it will. I promise to invite you to the book release party, Earl. :)
