- 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.

Boat wreck
Karin and I visited Sundvik about a half year ago, it was in December. It’s rather unique in Sweden, with its coast line of steep sand banks, and a beach full of weathered and washed bricks. Might it have been a brick maker in the area, gone since long, from which all the remaining bricks [...]
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 [...]
Follow me
Not long time ago, I wrote about the the Hasslanda airfield that was closed down. I wondered where all planes flew, now I know. This week, I have been participating in a work shop to hone my skills in writing. Things I learnt have been to use lots of movement verbs and always pay special [...]

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 [...]
Biggles, anyone?
For so many years, I’ve seen the airplanes coming in from South, circulating a few times around our town, then heading back from where they came from, South. Most often, it haven’t been the most modern of airplanes, you could tell from the sound of the engines. A few times, I have even seen double-wing [...]
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 [...]
