- Welcome to my blog about this and that – ditt & datt in Swedish. The topics you'll find here are not always that general, though. You wont find anything on football, for instance. Moreover, all the light will most often be on photographs I made. In fact, if I tell something I find worthwhile telling, I usually stick a few of my photographs to the story. You could almost say this is about photography, and in a way you're right, it is. But it is also about what I see.

Special day
It’s the eleventh of July today, a special day for me and Karin. We met for the first time that date. It was on a triathlon competition, and we were there both to cheer on friends that we had in common. For me, it was love at first sight, but I had to sing serenades [...]
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 [...]
The Februaries
This is me. It’s from last Winter, one of those mornings when the night had our car coated in a thick layer of ice, impossible to work through with the ice scraper that always seems to be the one from past year. Nothing else to do than leave the engine running and wait while the [...]

Is there anybody out there?
Quite unintended, this started some music in my head. Pink Floyd, a phrase from one of the tracks from the Wall. This has nothing to do with that record, not even unconsciously. The phrase fits the theme of this post, although. I’ve been away for a while, away from everything that spells out Internet and [...]
Standing still
I haven’t been writing for a while, haven’t really felt for it. It is this time of the year, when time slows down to almost standing still. For me, that said. Last week was actually quite okay, my creative juices really fluid and I produced quite a few illustrations for my current client. Speaking about [...]
No spring in sight, by far
East of Lund, facing South. Malmö in the horizon. Cold as hell, which you might think would be a hot place, but is not. If you think about it, it makes sense. It’s a cold place, considering the sense while freezing to death. It’s a very warm sensation. Yay, that was lively. It’s not as [...]

Thriving
Is it possible to thrive during wintertime, I don’t think so. This has been the most terrible winter ever, at least since I moved from Stockholm to Lund, in 1989. In fact, most around here refer to that very year when they try to recall when it was as cold as this, last time. That [...]

A bicycle town
You might already know there are lots of bicycles here in Lund, from my SoFoBoMo book. Thing is that the ones I shot were merely the tip of an iceberg. Hm, that was a poor analogy, since these are melting while the bicycles here in Lund are rather increasing in volume. Or is it a [...]

Radhusbo – ha, ha, ha!
Tänk, vem hade trott att jag skulle pyssla med trädgårdsgrejer en vacker dag. Sedan jag flyttade in i min radhuslägenhet har jag varit ute och pysslat både en och två gånger, och jag tycker det är skitkul! Skitknäppt! Är det åldern? Jag har alltid hört till dem som lämnat fikabordet när alla börjat prata om [...]
