Photographer. Gothenburger. Thinking about embracing my other nationalities at this moment in history.

I guess I should make my first post here, and since I am into #photography I should post some pictures. Right? Here's a small selection of my collection.
I started to watch #vikings after everyone else has moved on. It strikes me that the only interesting thing about vikings appear to be what they did in England. The viking age only started with the raid on Lindisfarne.. Nothing the vikings did elsewhere is of any importance. Did we exist before it?

Jaha, nu ska #familjebostäder i #Göteborg höja priset för min parkeringsruta med 20% bara så där. Inte för att det kostar mera (eftersom de inte kostar nästan något) utan för att "anpassa dem till marknaden". Och, mitt bostadsbolag vill uppmuntra mig att öka min jobbpendling med 2,5 timmar per dag.

There will be no Cthulthu 2028. In a statement from the campaign, a campaign manager with an unprintable and unpronouncable name said that "We can no longer gain traction in portraying our opposition as the lesser evil".

The #vogons have arrived. They've found that they don't need to publish new zoning plans in Alpha Centauri, in the basement, behind the broken door and the dragon beyond it. It is clear that humans have not followed the fire code, and Earth can be torn down to make way for that intergalactic bypass

Was there anyone that thought #Bluesky was anything else than a VC funded Silicon Valley product? See it blocking #trans folk who are critical of #JKRowling right now.

I love #darktable. I love #foss. Sometimes I have these happy thoughts about using them professionally. It always crashes and burns.

I'm not going to spend a day trying to figure out why my #Fujifilm X-H2 is not working with the software, when it says it should.

My non-FOSS software just works.

Félicitations à la France pour votre fête nationale hier ! J'espère y être l'an prochain, au bon jour.

I don't know of any hotel or restaurant in #Gothenburg that serve "English food". She better stay away from here. She wouldn't like us very much, with our pickled herring, kebab pizzas, and meatballs in sauce. #uk

#Göteborg är ju en maritim stad, och det förekommer mycket aktiviteter på vattnet. Från trafik med enorma passagerarfärjor till små fiske- och turistbåtar. Här är några bilder på några av dessa aktiviteter. #photography #streetphotography #gothenburg

Idag fick jag ett nytt objektiv till min Fujifilmsamling. Ett exemplar av Sigma 56mm f1,4 Contemporary. Givetvis fick jag ge mig ut på stadens gator och prova det. #photography #streetphotography #göteborg #gothenburg

Switching away from US-based services means making tough choices—like ditching #Lightroom for a new editor and breaking free from contracts that are most likely not even legal. Learning a new workflow from scratch by revisiting old photos has been rewarding. Here are three of them. #photography

New York City was robbed of the opportunity to have Paperboy Love Prince as its mayor. What a shame. What a crying shame!

Found old photos I took with my #Lumix #G80 — shots of Skansen Lejonet and the #Gothenburg rail yard. Edited them in the new RAW processor I got after leaving #Lightroom #photography

One thought that’s been lingering for ages: photographing endlessly during my vacation that starts tomorrow. And today, I embarked on a completely pointless project. I decided to photograph my AeroPress, using whatever I had at home.

"Photography" is my go-to answer for creativity, but my Arturia Minifreak has brought me the most joy this year. It’s always ready, within arm's reach. 11:32 PM on a Monday isn’t camera time, but it’s perfect for synth magic.

Well well well...

Recently I've been good. I've removed a lot of unused stuff from my #photography kit. I sold my last #microfourthirds lenses, my #lumix G9 Mk1. As well as some speedlites I never used. Did I keep on the straight and narrow?

Behold.... And this #Godox SK400II-V came as a pair...

I'm a bit sad today. Just sold the last remaining bits of my Micro Four Thirds kit, my G9. Last week I sold my last lens for the system, a 25mm f1.7.

Now I'm an exclusively #Fuji and #Nikon guy. I started on Nikon, so I'm not too fretful. Both are great systems, and I am excited by them.

Södraste? SÖDRASTE?!

Min underläpp darrar, och mitt högra ögonbryn har fått ryckningar, och min vänstra tinning blir snart till ett vulkanutbrott.

SÖDRASTE?!

1990-talet. I have unpacked my new Amiga 500, and I am full of myself. I want to explode. The buddy gang is there in my bedroom, and I pull out the wickedest game I have ever seen. Frontier Elite II. The gathered buddies are duly impressed. Casettes change hands.

I mitten av november har det nog hänt att jag tänkt "Varför i helvete flyttade jag tillbaka till #Göteborg för?" När det nästan är maj och solen skiner påminns jag om varför jag gjorde det.
