After that freezing day, it was a bit warmer today. But I was still in Winter uniform, minus the long johns from yesterday. I figured the warm weather would be enough for the Cherry Blossom to get under way, so I headed over to The King's park. A bit of a slow start but it all counts. Here are the photos I took ..read more

Apelsinmannen. The Orange Man, is a TV miniseries from 1990. Based on a novel by Birgitta Stenberg. It starred Görel Crona, an actress that I had a big crush on back in the day. That memory popped up as I watched this guy place the oranges in the window at Café Schweizer during my walk through the Old Town yesterday ..read more

Horrible weather here at the moment. Freezing as I am typing this, so I will continue with another sixteen-photo collage from a few days ago when it was warm and sunny. In the collage, you can see people sitting at an outdoor café at a square in the old town. Also people on benches at Tegelbacken, which is close to Stockholm Sheraton. Seven photos from a walk along Vasagatan near the Central Station. Also, four photos from Kungsträdgården, The King's Park ..read more

I could outrun at least one of these guards any day of the week. Just saying. Spotted while sitting at the stairs at Stockholm City Hall ..read more

In this case, six. Four police officers and two security guards. Not sure what the issue was, maybe he just needed some help. A few minutes later when I walked past them, the man was helped into the police van. As seen at Vasagatan in Stockholm. The building was once known as the Central Post Office Building. I "worked" there for a couple of weeks as a ninth-grader. Today a Government building ..read more

Walking past Spotify HQ at Regeringsgatan, (Government street), in Stockholm. Known as Urban Escape, a very modern office building, designed by White Arkitekter. The street is one of the oldest in the city, just over a kilometer long. It starts at the Royal Palace ..read more

It was one of those rare calm days this cold and windy Spring. I decided to make a few pit-stops at Lake Drevviken, at Larsboda. First at the circular pier where I spotted another photographer. I walked out for a few reflection photos of buildings at Sköndal, including the terrace house that you have probably seen before. I then continued over to the boardwalk, where I got a closer look at the swans and a nice view over the beach with some of the new apartment buildings as a backdrop. My next stop was the beach, Hökarängsbadet, where I tested the brand-new jetty. The old one had been taken ov ..read more

I always carry something to eat with me on my long bike rides. That is probably a little unusual in this day and age when you can buy food to go everywhere, but that is how I prefer to do it. And I am yet to order a coffee to go in my life! Anywho, here are five photos taken at a park at Kungsholmen in Stockholm a while back. The park is located at Fredhäll and is therefore called Fredhällsparken. I ate my snack sitting on a park bench while listening to two guys chatting away at the tennis court behind me. After my pause, I walked over the green lawn to take these photos. They show a number ..read more

We had two really warm April days this week. At least for this cold Spring. The temperature reached 15C. Sitting on the bike, I began to feel warm, as I am usually dressed for colder weather. So I had to stop twice to remove garments, and that gave me an idea for a new photo project. So I parked the bike at the statue of Gustav III across the street from the Royal Palace in the Old Town and began taking panning photos of passing cyclists and the odd e-scooter rider. These are most of the snaps from the first day of shooting. To not overcomplicate things, I shot using Auto ISO at 1/100th of a ..read more
