Åstol

Here is a seriously overexposed image of the island Åstol off the Swedish west coast. The picture was meant to be part of a HDR set, but the way the HDR came out didn't appeal to me. However, I like this a lot. It only required a little bit of postprocessing to bring out the colours of the island as a contrast against the white sky and the bright sea.

A little meta: I tried to keep this blog first in Swedish, then in both Swedish and English, but from now on it will be in English only. Almost all Swedes I know understand English, and very few non-Swedes do. A google-translate button is added to the right if you need it. I will also try to update this blog a little more frequently. The goal is every Tuesday and Friday with occational in-betweens.

Klipporna vid vattnet

Dagens bild är tagen vid klipporna vid havet i Gijon. Klockan var strax efter 11 på kvällen och bilden är en HDR med en längsta exponeringstid på 30s. Därav de utsmetade vågorna.

Första bilden av Polen

När vi kom med färjan från Karlskrona var det här det första vi fick syn på av Polen; tidigt på morgonen, genom regnet, dök halvön Hel upp som ett streck längs horisonten.

When we came with the ferry from Karlskrona this was the first we saw of Poland; through the early morning rain the penisula Hel appeared along the horizon.
