w10 Windsurfing on Cabo Verde

The Cape Verdian windsurfer Djo Silva CV-11 makes a practice jump in the wave at the beach of Santa Maria. He was one of the participants of the PWA 2009 World Cup event on Cabo Verde that finished just before we arrived at the island.

w09 2009 - Kungälv at night

This is an HDR-experiment with mixed light temperatures. Very tricky when you mig tungsten and old school bulbs in the same picture.

w08 2009 - Väderöarna harbor

This picture was inspired by an old picture found at the wall of Väderöarna`s Guest House & Restaurant. It basically looks the same as it did 150 years ago. Although its hard to imagine how someone could live here without electricity or gasoline.

w07 2009 - Väderöarna Pilot Watch House

Pictrure from a visit to the island Väderöarna taken in the winter of 2008. Very rough landscape with windy conditions.

w06 2009 - Bohus Fortress in Kungälv

The fortress of my home town Kungälv was partly demolished at the end of the 18th century. Residents of the surrounding town of Kungälv used the dressed stone of the fortress for building houses. Lazy people...Some parts of the fortress still remains though. This is an HDR composite of the main entrance.

w05 2009 - iPhone Portrait

This is AK shot with an iPhone. Post processing in phone with Photonasis and Polarieze. Arter that I sent an email from the phone to Youtube and by some cyber magic the picture ended up on the blog.

w04 2009 - Playing with fire

I found some fire jugglers late one night in a park in Göteborg. They did not mind me snapping some pics.

w03 2009 - Caesar driving

This is my nephew Caesar 8 months old riding his first wheels. ISO100 50mm f2,8 1/125 . Shoot-through umbrella at camera left SB-800 ISO100 1/16 M

w02 2009

First test with blank and white nature close ups. Its very hard to do this without a tripod. Of 20 exposures only two were sharp. Apeture has to be over f4 next time I try this.

w01 2009

I have made a new years resolution: "Post one good pic every week during 2009". Its my "52 Weeks 2009" project. This is the first picture. Cliffs outside Tjörn Sweden in winter sun.
