Another morning walk, I have to admit that I love to get up and take a walk before people wake up. It’s so peaceful. This is from the village this morning. Now time for some work
Blog
Someone is enjoying late spring
Wonderful, it’s 4:52 in the morning and only the birds and the wind makes any sounds
The long, lonely walk
Abandoned
Not used
Patterns
Just for your information, the snow is all but gone, the ice is gone, there is some green on the trees. I officially declare that it’s late spring
Bonny
As cold and wet as it looks (4°C and rain)
Space … the final fronter (??)
Scheduled for extinction… it 18C today
I hope this is an indication of a good future (and no, I didn’t do anything to the stone etc)
Messy nature
I think it’s safe to say that spring is here
“Walking” the dogs
Doing stuff
Weather & wind
The proud hunter. She have come in with 7 mice in five days.
Spring
Exposed to the weather
Friends talking
Summer is getting closer
The snow is almost gone, soon summer
Dinner
Lunch
Fishing
Current state in our home
Blue
Different sizes
Spring time
Sometimes it’s too easy to take bird photos
We can soon see our driveway from the kitchen window
I had to go to the city today, after 30 min I just wanted to go home again … I took this photo which summarize my 3h in the city.
Hard nope … yep, someone is out ice fishing
Spring is beautiful they say … well, nope
Waiting for the garbage truck
Nope, I’m not going out on the ice

All that fluff !!! 😍 😻
A+ for effort and idea!! My cat have realized that she can’t catch any birds by sitting & waiting below the feeder. So now she’s trying on top of it, or she thinks that behaving like a bird will fool them …
It have been quite warm the last week or two, and the snow has started to melt away.
😋 our printer suddenly made a selfie
Todays theme: pompasetting
Todays theme: code
I made a quick visit to the office today to get a book. I looked at the whiteboard and saw some code. This is from one year ago, and I think I was trying to explain semaphores (or some other locking mechanism), the perils of using pointers, and finally inheritance. Probably not the same student, or the same course 🤷🏻
Scenes from the village. An man using his snow thrower (correct term??)
And an elderly woman shoveling snow
Something tells me that one of the neighbors is 40 today
Todays theme: Spell
Not really a spell … well, it makes as much sense as a spell … or spelling but dictating in Swedish while setting iOS to use the English keyboard can result in some amusing prose
Three women, one man and three dogs out walking, a car passing by. Yet another Sunday walk.
Outside the kitchen window
Todays theme: Weather. Some lite snowfall.
Agnes is working on her camouflage 😁
Todays theme: Alive. One thing that makes me feel alive, and “in tune with the world” is when I’m out hunting (which doesn’t happen that often).
Todays theme: Home. This has been my view at home for the last 3-4 days (no walks, nothing 😕)
Todays theme: Still. I never got the chance to go out and take some photos today so here is photo from an early morning in Arvidsjaur
Todays theme: Erudite. You might say “Wait, what?” to which I answer “Yep!”
Todays theme: reflections. From the archive “The Portal”
Todays theme: Compassion.
I found this one day walking in a forest close to Umeå. Apparently someone had compassion to the dead bird and covered it with flowers.
Tove doesn’t mind snow
Todays theme: make.
These machines can be a source of great joy and be really useful (I don’t own one, I’m not much into engines etc … despite officially having a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering - long story). But they also make a lot of noice …
The two roads
Mr. Tractor
Todays theme: Sporg. I have no idea what a sporg is. After some research (i.e. using DuckDuckGo) I decided that a sporg must be some kind creature. So I decided to spend my lunch walk trying to hunt down a sporg.
Did I see a sporg running between the trees?
I’m sure that I saw one among the tress, although my research says that it could be an almost invisible creature.
Frozen sporg pee???
Could it be a sporg crossing, or a warning to sporgs crossing the road?
I think I heard a sporg over there (although I have no idea of how they sound)
See, right there, isn’t that a sporg??
Could this be a sporg in white winter camouflage?
Another sporg crossing?
Could these be sporg nests?
A sporg castle?
OK, here we have a sporg running over the field … unfortunately it has a very good camouflage so you can’t see it.
Todays theme: machine. One of the neighbors is apparently improving their heating system. This have become very popular the last couple of years (we did it about 2 years ago)
Todays theme: Energy. Somewhat inspired by the post @maique made … here is the kind of opposite of his photo
Todays theme: Muddy. It’s kind of difficult to find something muddy today, so here are two from the archives.
Commenting on research stuff … I need a break, a cat break
How she can find this position comfortable is beyond me
Sisters
Todays theme: Hope. Tove have some hope for an unscheduled snack.
Todays theme: Sports. I usually take something between 5-10000 martial arts photos each year. The last 14 months I’ve done one singe photo shoot … so here are two from the archive, taken 3 months ago.
Todays theme: Pets. Tove says “mjau” (“hi”)
There is a rumor that the kids think it’s difficult to use the swings 😋
Todays theme: Layers. Layers of snow.
Todays theme: Comfort. Since comfortable footwear seem to be a thing today. Here is what I currently wear:
Todays theme: Morning brew. A cup of tea, a biscuit, a cat, a few birds, -22 degrees, and sunshine - one way of starting your day
Todays theme: close up. The result of wearing contact lenses for one year.
It’s not often I think about it but walking on a layer of water (snow) above another layer of water (ice) that is floating on top of a third layer of water is kind of fantastic
Out walking again
Current state of Agnes (I haven’t posted a cat picture in a while)
😜 now the birdies can actually walk to the feeder and eat
😁 @jack @ohBananaJoe Since I got a new flash yesterday 😜 (sorry I didn’t have the time to set up proper lighting etc)
Sigh, I told the birdies how to shovel a roof. And this is how they do it 🤦🏻♂️
First(!!!) attempt of using snowshoes … the size of my feet might explain why I never have tried before 😁. Verdict: not for me.
First walk this week (I’ve been working and shoveling snow 😋)
The birdies didn’t shovel their feeder when I told them to, and see how it looks now !! Now they really need to get their act together
Still doing the home gym thing, different exercises though
The traditional workout in the home gym
I think that the birdies need to get the shovel out
Dinner
🎶♬🎹 Down by the sea 🎹♬🎶
Yesterday
Green in summer, white in winter … as it should be
Another day in the village.
The day after New Year’s Eve
This is how my models look like when I try to take portraits: “Do we really have to do this”
This also explains why I have so few photos of people
For a few hours the world look the way it should look.
It should be full of snow, unfortunately nature is annoyed with us humans (rightly so) and we get shit weather but not today.
The “ball of fluff” is enjoying life
We got a visit from Albus yesterday and of course son & girlfriend got a print to take home. (The advantage of having a photo printer)
Final test post, I do hope that things fail this time !!!
Just another test post, trying to break some software
Sigh, that worked just fine. Let’s try a new photo and see if it fails this time
Nothing to see here, just a test post trying out some software
@maique I kind of agree (I’m playing with editing to see if I can get some structure in the trunks). Here I very much prefer the color version:
B&W
Sometimes I wonder why I bother with a camera with color sensor 😜
Color version
B&W version
King of the hill
Good morning Umeå
An experiment that showed me a few things:
- Light pollution is a real thing (city is about 15km away)
- m43 sensors in near dark doesn’t work well
- DxO4 DeepPrime reduces noice better that Lightroom
A very gray morning.
Umeå
A very sad cucumber
This isn’t why I bought that LED panel but ….
Current state
A burglar, 📞 👮🏿♂️
Christmas decorations
Curves
I hope that there was no-one sitting there when it happened.
Albus visited today, got to take a photo before they left again
Det är ju inte svårt att förstå varför äldre tycker det är besvärligt att gå ut och gå i #Umeå
This is the only one in the house who want to pose for me when I want to play with flash photography … we need more gnomes in the world !!!
Current state of the garden
For those of you who have been wondering: Yes, it’s snowing.
Lovely company during today’s walk, the raven is soaring somewhere above me “singing” the fantastic sound that ravens have.
I can hear sirens, I’m pretty sure it’s not a wildfire 😜
Rainy evening
From yesterday, I wonder what will happen if the water doesn’t recline before it completely freezes …
It’s now autumn/winter and you can see the ice starting to settle
And finally a bit of color
Out walking
My cat, looking incredibly intelligent
Back to normal
Yesterdays weather, a few hundred meters from our house. In other places things have been way worse trees over cars, 1m of water indoors, flooded roads, etc.
Dedicated bird watcher
No electricity => cozy
Current status: no electricity => no work
Out walking again 🚶🏻
I’ve seen photo of cars where someone has stolen all tires, does this mean that someone stole the car and left the tires? 🤷🏻♂️
She’s not 100% in favor of this thing
Now it’s time for a few months of darkness
This is art
Winter is getting closer
I wonder if winter is here to stay or just making a quick visit 🤔
Woohoo, at little bit of white stuff
I think they might have a problem finding a window that fits
I’ve spent a surprising amount of time here the last two weeks …
Sheer optimism
Yep, it has been raining lately
Rain in the air, so after a 2.5h walk in the morning I’m staying inside warming my feet 😜
One huge advantage of autumn/winter is that I don’t have to get up early to catch sunrise (and soon I’ll be able to sleep in and still get up before sunrise 😜)
It was probably some time since it was used the last time
Hmm, it sure looks like autumn 😋
This photo of Umeå was taken from here across the river.
Spending the evening in Umeå waiting to get home
My lap has the same content as it did have yesterday evening
Sometimes it’s more difficult to get some work done
Eight of the neighbors eating their breakfast
Yep, I do love red leaves (as you probably have figured out by now 😁)
A quick break from reading papers
Red
Autumn
Unexpected visit to the city
I’ve been away from home a week and then been busy so yesterday I was able to take my first walk at home in two weeks and there have been some changes. Autumn is clearly making itself visible now.
First real sign of autumn
Question: if a cat sleeps on your bills, then it’s OK to be late in paying them … right?
Not a good picture but she didn’t to wait for the camera to actually start working (for some reason my camera is really slow each day when I first turn it on)
Good morning
I’ll be here or in this general area this week … in case you need me … wait until next week
An evening walk through the village
Mrs. Blue Eyes
I love how the neighbors color matched flowers and ball
Tired cats. The kittens followed my wife and daughter when they took a 1 km walk. This is their reactions (the cats, not wife/daughter) when they got home.
One difference of working from home is that my colleagues at work usually stays awake, and when they fall asleep they usually don’t sleep on my desk
I’ve never seen this kind of garbage before 2020
Today’s theme: love.
I also discovered an area with lots and lots of blueberries (despite being rather late in the season)
I wonder what caused this tree to grow in this way.
Today’s theme: discovery. I walked to a part of the forest where I haven’t been before and I discovered a “Klapperstensfält” that I didn’t know about.
(this is the same idea as a Shingle beach but usually on a hill/mountain or in the forest)
Today’s theme: flake. Needing some inspiration I looked up the word and found one definition that I didn’t know about
flake out: informal he flaked out on my bed: fall asleep, go to sleep, keel over; nod off
This is probably what happened to these two after getting a moose meat dinner #mbaug
Today’s theme: emotions. I was going to post a photo of people doing things … but I changed my mind and instead upload the snapshots from this mornings walk - and you can supply the emotions. #mbaug
The kind of forest I’m used to
Some blueberries?
Today’s theme: overcome. Due to “unforeseen circumstances” I won’t be able to go and take an “overcome” photo today, so here is one from the archives. #mbaug
A new friend I met today. A bit shy but she let me take a few photos.
Today’s theme: relentless. From a human perspective, time is probably the most relentless concept. #mbaug
Sleepy
Today’s theme: Hope. I love the hope and optimism of the boats owner 😁
Ha, yesterday I wrote that it was too warm here for frost … and what do I see during my morning walk? Frost !!
Out walking again
Today’s theme: frost. Hmmm … since we currently have no frost I can’t really go out and take a new photo - and the fridge seems boring, or frost flakes. So here is one from the archive. #mbaug
Raindrops
Today’s theme: graceful. I don’t know if this can be considered graceful or not … but at least he had fun.
Pretty happy with my new shoes. It has been a long time since I’ve been able to wiggle my toes (it’s size 47.5 or 13)
Today’s theme: home. The home of many #mbaug
Windows
Today’s theme: crunch
Today’s theme: change. OK, Here is another photo to illustrate “change”. If I remember correctly this used to be a Post Office building - I think that they used to sort the mail here.
Today’s theme: Change. I find it quite interesting to see how architecture change over time. #mbaug
Today’s theme: ribbon. This is probably a bit of a stretch but perhaps that roof construction and the shadows it cast can be considered ribbons. #mbaug
Today’s theme: grid #mbaug
Today’s theme: cuddly. And here is the reason why I suggested it. #mbaug
Today’s theme: Stationary. The mountain behind our house is what I would consider “stationary”. The trees come and go, but the mountain is still there. #mbaug
Today’s theme: silhouette #mbaug
Another sign of Covid - these were brand new 2-2.5 months ago (yes, I walked a bit the last 4-5 months).
I just met this little fellow while out walking
Today’s theme: among. A path among the trees. #mbaug
Today’s theme: filter. Filtering humans
Today’s theme: sound. New sound device in the house. #mbaug
Today’s theme: Transport. #mbaug
“Sorry, you can’t use the toilet now. I’m taking a nap”
Today’s theme: Window. Closed windows seem to be a theme where I live #mbaug
Today’s theme: black & white. I’m doing the lazy thing and just publish a B&W photo instead of doing something clever (and I happen to like B&W) #mbaug
Today’s theme: view. The view during the evening walk
Playtime
Today’s theme: “day tripping”. “Day tripping??” You say, well this is from Tuesday when I drove 500+ km and among other things visited my mother… who wanted to show off her flowers
Today’s theme “bisect” #mbaug
Todays theme is “flow”. I had hoped to take a few photos of a stream but things happened so here is a desperate photo #mbaug
There is a feeling of peace here #mbaug
Does a fly count as a “bug”? #mbaug
Walking around in the forest … and eating 😋
This boat ain’t floting anymore #mbaug
She is looking up to me #mbaug
It looks like we are getting some cherries this year.
It’s wet outside
I’ve always found street photography interesting but I very rarely try it. One reason is pretty obvious: no streets in my neighborhood
Walking home
Heavy traffic
Drone photo of trees … or just very small plants beside a puddle?
And here you see the reason why a “quick walk” behind our house usually isn’t that quick.
Just testing the glightbox plugin on micro.blog
The smiling crocodile
Rain today
Tove
Agnes
05:45 - Good morning
We had black cats for 16-17 years and almost every time I tried taking a photo of them I ended up with black blobs in the photo. I think I will not have that problem with the new cats
Vacation fun
Peaceful evening
Decided to take a short bike ride today. Guess what happened … yep, I got wet.
Evening
Probably not the best place to leave your sofa
I really like how the owners of this garden has taken advantage of the rock that was in their garden
Beside the road
Rainy weather outside so I’m “forced” to stay indoors
Friday walk - Bönhus (literal translation: House of prayer)

From today’s walk - mystery forest
Public Service Announcement : I’m sorry (not really) but these moved in yesterday afternoon … you can expect an increasing number of cat photos from me in the future.
We are mostly staying in our village at the moment, but yesterday it was time to get some shopping done. Anyway, I ended up taking a quick walk in the city and …
At least it looks like they are enjoying themselves
Let me start the day with a picture of one of the neighboring houses
Cloudy morning and I can hear thunder
Still walking
Out walking
Another photo from the neighborhood - I don’t want to have a horse but I’m very happy that someone else in the village have a few … I’m unsure about how many but I think there are at least 7 of these ponies.
I was the “outdoor instructor” for some young kids. Ju-jutsu COVID edition 😋
Village life
Another old memory, this time from when I was travelling home from Seattle. We were going to take a connecting flight home but for some reason we landed at the same time the other plane was rolling out on the runway - yep, I saw it. So we were offered a room for the night and then a seat on the plane home the next evening. So, next day we took the bus to downtown New York for a quick look around … and of course I needed to go to Empire State Building.
Unfortunately, it’s not a very good photo … I wish it looked like this, this or this but I didn’t have the skill (or the time).
Anyway, I got a free visit to New York so I shouldn’t complain. This was also my second to last visit to the US.
Old memories
Visited the dentist today
The feeling of having prepared scones for lunch and the whole neighborhood loses power
Not a road for sport cars 😋
Hello there
Today’s theme: blue and green
The “pain” of working from home
The end of yet another day
Walking around in the neighborhood
He is growing up fast, looking quite adult for being a toddler
Spent some quality time with son’s puppy today
Not what I expected when I went out to take a few photos
Another day in the village, still working from home
Puppy in the wild
For some reason I find this image calming
It seems like spring is on its way
My new photo model, not my puppy but I’m pretty sure that will see many photos of this little guy in the future
Luftigt möblerat
The current temperature is having a huge effect on the ice
Sunshine

Life is tough
A quick visit to the city
A quick visit to the city
Time to start walking home I think
Out walking again
Good morning, I’m really starting to enjoy the work from home lifestyle. A nice morning walk before starting to work.
From this mornings walk: dead trees
Social distancing
Another of the neighboring houses
Discussing the state of the world with the neighbor
Another busy road
30 minutes in central Umeå: Vårvinter (“spring winter”)
30 minutes in central Umeå: The newlywed couple
30 minutes in central Umeå: The Singer - she “kulade“
30 minutes in central Umeå: Vårvinter (“spring winter”)
A short walk before the last video meeting on the day
Big brother
Mobile forest
I see no change because of the corona virus, the usual number of people is out on the street 😜
Another day in “paradise”
I’m pretty sure that someone died here
Snow today
Det är ju ett sätt att se det på
Umeå University

This is what I see when I get home after a few hours in Umeå

Det finns säkert en intressant historia…
Two older women walking along the street discussing what happened during the weekend and why one of them didn’t attend an event. In other words much like any teenager … humans are pretty much the same despite the age.
Good morning world
Welcome home
It might be gray and dull during the day (basically 10-14) but during the sunset it has been VERY colorful the last few days
Yep, today is one of those gray days when you really want to curl up in to sofa and do nothing. Please let it become cold soon … with some fresh, fluffy snow
I really like those clouds, they are so beautiful
Afternoon walk
Winter with some snow
You see that yellow thing in the distance? It’s the sun and in 5 months it will be up in the sky for almost 22 of 24 hours
It looks like winter in the backyard
So, what did I do this weekend. Well, I mostly sat in a mini-buss going to Uppsala and back again. Between those two events I spent my time looking at various graduations in Ju-Jutsu. Here are some from the 4th Dan graduation (fourth level black belt)
Blue and yellow
Blue
And a quick visit to Stockholm
Back in Arvidsjaur. Tomorrow’s trip back home will not be fun, there was a lot of … ehh, “snörök” today (that dry snow that is sucked into the air when a vehicle passes, google couldn’t give me translation). Tomorrow it’s going to be pitch black and each time I meet a truck I’m going to be in a white cloud with near zero visibility for 3-5 seconds or so. Not my favorite thing.
Todays lunch: pumpkin soup. Family grade was A for idea, E for effort
Everybody is having a hard time
So what did I do this weekend? Well, I had fun … and took pictures of people having fun (martial arts)
One of the neighbors
A quick visit in Växjö
Out traveling again, passing through Stockholm

One of the neighboring villages
I love autumn colors
Cyclists
Yes, these images are overdone, I was playing with some iPhone apps and wanted to see what happened. But I would say that they are not as overdone as you first might think, when I look at the original images they are kind of dull and does not in any way show how I experienced yesterdays walk. These images reflects my experience much more. But yes, overdone and a bit too much HDR.
A few photos from the weekend
Autumn colors
Lunchtime at work
Evening walk
A mesmerized audience 😁
A bit of a contrast from the previous photo, this is how I spent my time last week

It’s a little bit embarrassing but I haven’t gone through my photos from #helsinki last year 😔 but soon I’ll be done. Then it’s time for 3000 photos from an event in November 🙄 #helsingfors #finland #suomi #lumix #lumicnordic #lumixgx80
Green waves
I couldn’t resist playing with this image from one of the cemeteries in Aberdeen.
It’s ironic, yesterday I took a walk without a camera in my hand … for the first time in 3-4 weeks. What happens? An air balloon shows up, for the first time ever, and before I was able get home and get my camera it disappeared behind the mountain behind our house.
Back home. More colors than Aberdeen 😜
Grampian Discovery coming into Aberdeen harbor
River Dom, Seaton Park, Aberdeen
Too much cliche?? I mean old trees, green grass, old buildings (hardly visible), rain and a bag piper in the same photo
My guess is that these three buildings were not built at the same time 😜
When I leave Aberdeen I will have seen enough granite for some time
I wish I had a similar view at home
Morning walk
It would had been really fun if they have had the sails out
For me this view screams UK
Some ceilidh dancing by (mostly) novices at #iticse2019
Got myself a summer cottage
Wisdom found in a lecture hall
Archie - I met this little fellow yesterday when walking home from the conference reception. His owners spend a lot of time yelling his name but he didn’t seem to care that much 😋
Dinner ???
The dominant color here is gray … a lot of gray … in fact, very much gray
Evening walk
Out walking
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a clear, perfect rainbow
Not really why I bought that tripod and light but hey, it works
Experimenting and trying to get the photo to express the same feeling/view I experienced when I stood there.
Helsinki, Finland
Helsinki, Finland
Nope, I’m not a “car person” … but it’s a fun challenge to take photos of them.
Walking
I’m not a Photoshop guy, in fact this is the first photo I’ve edited in Photoshop (I normally use Lightroom). I wanted to get rid of some bushes and since I’ve seen people do these things in Photoshop I decided to try. Not perfect in any way but for a first attempt I think it’s OK.
A memory from the ice age. This is at the top of the “mountain” behind our house
Current state of the sun
I have no idea what to do with this, probably just put it on a shelf to celebrate one of the coolest looking Macs that have been made.
And it was free 😎
Got invited to an island today (and it’s my father in law, 87, who is practicing knife throwing)
Walking around in Umeå waiting for my daughter
A few photos while waiting for the bus home
Spent a part of the day watching Toughest (an obstacle course race). I’m not very interested in the elite, they are pretty boring, but the amateurs that does it for fun … a completely different thing
Graduation
Yep … it did rain
Crossing Ångermanälven on my way home
Lunch break - walked down to the lake during lunch (Volgsjön, Vilhelmina).
Why I like living where I live, it’s 23:00 and it’s time to sleep … but it’s only slightly darker than in the middle of the day in the winter
The view from hotel room
The sun is setting, it’s time to go home
Afternoon distraction
I wasn’t popular today, they thought I was too close their nest
The abandoned building - I’m a bit fascinated with this abandoned house. It sits alone in the forest and is in a pretty bad condition, but judging from the electric lighting it can’t have abandoned for that long. This was the first time I noticed the painting.
5:48 On my way to the bus so I can get to work
Evening walk … to fill the circles on my watch 😏
22:33 - Walking home from the bus (the last bus of the day)
Current state
One of the “university birdies”
To be perfectly honest: I’m quite fed up with correcting exams
