HDR Training

HDR-Oresundsbron01

Since I have a trip to Iceland planned in a few weeks, I figured that it would be a good idea to dust off the old cam and freshen up my landscape skills. My fingers and toes were frosen and numb, but I managed to capture a couple of frames.

Greengarden @ KB, Malmö

Spent my Saturday watching twelve bands battle for the title in the Emergenza Music Festival. Decided to bring along my camera and took a couple of shots of the Malmö based Folk-Rock band, Greengarden.

Listen to their music here:

(My personal favorite is “Walnut”. Check it out!!)

Yellow fields

Walked past these amazing yellow fields and decided to seize the moment by taking a couple of snap-shots.

New toys!

Let me introduce my new toys: LensBaby Composer including wide angle, telephoto and macro converters. Yaaay! Stay tuned for pics taken with these fun lenses. Let the creativity begin!

Yaaay, Business Cards

Three key ingredients for running a successful design studio are networking, Networking and NETWORKING! What better way to spread the word than with a stunning business card? For these, I experimented with “foil effects”, which gives the colored areas a nice glossy, shiny and metallic finish. Although the foil effect doesn’t really show on the pictures, they turned out pretty cool, especially when light hits the foil surface. Let the networking begin!

Slow Down!

Apologized to a friend for taking some time to reply to an E-mail, and explained that I’m currently in a tough 24/7 working schedule. The response was “Currently? You mean you’re ALWAYS in a tough working schedule” :) So true. Time to slow down! Took the evening off and freshened up on my PS-skills with some pics from Paris. The result? View my work, Paris, Retro Style.

Recreation

Last weekend, I took a recreational trip to the southern parts of Sweden. The last couple of months have been least to say tough. Tons of work, minimal sleep and a minor river of energy drinks. To be able to function, it’s important to allow yourself to take a couple of hours off and simply relax. This time, a long walk and some random photography in the icy town Ystad was the plan. It was cold, but totally worth it! Hope you like the pics!

Oh no… SNOW!

There’s always something special with the first snow of the year… And I mean “special” in a BAD way :) Anyway, this morning I grabbed my camera and took some pictures on my stroll to work.
