John said it best.

”I don’t believe in magic,
I don’t believe in I-ching,
I don’t believe in bible,
I don’t believe in tarot,
I don’t believe in Hitler,
I don’t believe in Jesus,
I don’t believe in Kennedy,
I don’t believe in Buddha,
I don’t believe in mantra,
I don’t believe in Gita,
I don’t believe in yoga,
I don’t believe in kings,
I don’t believe in Elvis,
I don’t believe in Zimmerman,
I don’t believe in Beatles,
I just believe in me, ”

John Lennon


I'm a grasshopper yes I am…

This little fellow sat on my mailbox (snailmail) when I came home from work.

Picture says it all!


Pekaboo!

Vision fighting championship.

Left my DSLR at home which I regret now. This MMA event was really good. Entertaining fights.

Wonder why?


2 years ago.

Chilli (the red cat) gives me the evil eye, it seems that he wants me to piss off!

Ozzy and Chilli relaxing on the balcony in our old apartment before they got the taste for the real outdoors.

Military nostalgia…

After Bosnia I took a break from the military. Then I missed the fun part of it all and joined the Swedish national Home guard.

 

1993 I went to Somalia, led flying everywhere so we hade to fill some sandbags. We filled about 140 tons of sand in those bags. It was a lot of fun. Nowadays I prefer rocky beaches...


1996 I visited Bosnia, beautiful place in the summer, especially up in the hills. It looked like Nangijala.

1991 I gave Lebanon a visit for about 6 months. This picture is shot near the village Chebaa in eastern Lebanon close to the Syrian border. Looks nice doesn’t it? I can tell you it was bloody warm. I liked Lebanon a lot, have to go back there again.

Karlstad universitet "Ägget"

Denna bilden blev den första jag tjänat en slant på (förutom några bilder på shutterstock som jag kanske dragit in 10:- på)


Sunset in Bovallstrand, west coast, Sweden.

My father captured this scene in Bovallstrand, Sweden this summer.I have decided that next summer I'll have to go there and take the leap myself.


Veckans fototriss: Blank.

Fototriss med temat ”blank”. I brist på tid och fantasi blev det 100% vattenbetonat. Det är rätt stor tidsskillnad på när bilderna är tagna. Dessutom är de tagna med 3 olika kameror. Den översta med en Nikon d300s, mittenbilden Nikon d40x och den längst ned med en Minolta dimage Z3. Om man är insatt i kamerautvecklingen kan man också med denna information lista ut vilken tidsordning bilderna är tagna :)

Blankt vatten mitt i natten.

Blank is på Vänern.


Onsön by day and night.

Korsspindel (Araneus diadematus)

Found this spider in my backyard. This one is poisonous (not much according to Wikipedia)


Playing around with Color efex.

First victim for the filter is Chilli

In this pic the filter is only applied to the hand, which by the way is way to jaggy (missed that in process).

"The Expendables" here I played around with the controls. Cropped the picture and then I was satisfied.


Chilli the cat.

My intention was to shoot a spider I found in my backyard but the little bugger refused to show himself.

So instead I turned to a model that never says no, his name is Chilli, our selfproclaimed backyard terrorist!

Showing his hairy chest.

Chilli is birdwatching.

Making a funny face…

Facedowns…

Read about phooning and found something even more funny.

”Facedowns”

Take a look at http://ilovefacedowns.wordpress.com/ and you get the idea.

Hilarious!


Fototriss, Symmetri.

Dags att vara med i Fototriss igen, var ett tag sen nu. Temat är som sagt Symmetri. Kollade definitionen på symmetri och jag vette fasen om klädnyporna uppfyller kravet egentligen? Oh well…

Först blir det lite natursymmetri i form av pollen.

Klädnypor!

Och ett staket med en Gepard strax bakom.


Sunset over Stockfallet.

The sky is burning.


Boat trip on Vänern.

Parken zoo i Eskilstuna uppfyllde förväntningarna. Mycket intressanta djur och med bra möjligheter att fotografera. Höjdpunkten var att få se Man vargen, ett djur jag aldrig sett förrut och vars existens för mig var helt okänd.
