Morning mist

Hi readers! It's been so long - again - but the biggest problem really is to get time to take photos. When I wake up and when I come home from school it's completely dark outside, so on weekdays I can't take a single photo during the day, and weekends are spent doing homework and reading.

Today I woke up surprisingly early, woken up by Maja wanting to sleep in my bed, and decided to take my bike to a big field not too far away from home. This past week it has been very misty, during the day as well, and today I finally got myself outside - in daylight - to take some photos. I also saw a cow while I was there, so I took a photo of it too.

A sudden snowfall

Hello readers! I've stayed inside, worked on my assignments and read - a couple of reviews might be coming up! -  a lot since my last post, but today I actually went outside because of the sudden snowfall. It really was a surprising snowfall, everybody was expecting rain and temperatures just above zero, but instead we got a beautiful snowfall with big snowflakes.

I thought it was really nice - even though I'm not looking forward to the train problems that will come because of this. Hopefully it will melt until next Tuesday when I'm starting school again.

A new year!

Hello readers! Today is the first day of 2017, and I don't really know what to post to be honest. I was thinking about doing a little video with fireworks like I did last year, but the footage wasn't that great this year, so I choose not to. But still, I wanted to wish all of you a happy new year!

I took this photos yesterday, when me and my family went to see the fireworks. Since this blog is about photos I though I at least need one photo in this post, even though I didn't write this because of the photos :)

From the train

Hello readers! Sorry, I became a bit unactive during Christmas, but I've been doing nothing, just spending time with my family. Yesterday I did take the train to Gothenburg and did some shopping with one of my friends. I didn't get much in the end, we didn't stay long either because we were both recovering from a cold and felt a little tired. But I did buy a book, this years winner of the Swedish book prize Augustpriset.

On the way home the train kept stopping every so often, because there was a problem with the signals, so I took some photos from the window with my phone. Because it's with my phone the photos don't have that great quality, but I think it's okey anyway.

Lastly I wish all of you (a bit late) happy holidays!

December evening...

Hello readers! Today was my last day of school, I had train problems during the morning but after that everything went smoothly. Now I'm going to read a lot and sleep in with my cat. I did not take any photos today, because it gets dark very quickly this time of year. Today was actually the winter solstice, the shortest/darkest day of the year. So I really didn't get any time too, but I thought a photo of the Christmas tree might be good enough since it's Christmas very soon.

Gothenburg

Hello everyone! For today's post I've taken some photos from Gothenburg. I realized that I never actually taken any photos of this city, even though I'm here everyday. These photos might not be the greatest since I was really cold - because I thought it wouldn't be that windy today, turns out I was wrong - and didn't really pay that much attention to the photos. I just wanted to go inside, and the weather was not the best today.

I took these photos around lunchtime, but in the mornings the little river creates mist that lay between the trees, and it look very nice during the sunrise. Unfortunately I was a bit too late, but this morning it looked better than when I took the photos.

Snow

Hello readers! It was my first day back to school today after a week off, and I was really tired today. Outside it's starting to get a bit colder, it's been snowing on and off for the entire day today. The first snow this year came last Thursday, and that is really quite early for this part of Sweden. Since I had a long day today at school, and it gets dark super early this time of the year, I didn't get any time to take photos today. But I did, on the other hand, take photos this Friday and I was going to post them but forgot about it. So, here are some photos from last Friday.

It basically look the same outside today, but today it was colder and the snowflakes were a bit smaller, but other than that you didn't miss out on anything. I'm hoping to get to take some good photos soon, but I only finish school early on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so it's some time until then!

Outside with Maja

Hello everybody! I didn't forget about posting today, and that really made me happy. I was very close to forget, but right before I went to bed I remembered! Today I woke up early, at seven, and went outside with Maja. It was terribly cold and humid at the same time, and the wind was too strong. Maja didn't really like it, but she followed me around for the entire time I was outside - then she went inside, sleeping for the rest of the day.

The - only - thing I like about autumn is the colours, the leaves are more than the boring green. I think today's photos turned out pretty good, simply because of the coloures of the leaves. If you look closely you can see that they are a bit wet, it's from the morning mist.

I'm back!

Hello readers! It has been so, so long since last. Almost two months. School took much more time than expected, and since it takes me an hour to get one way, I don't have that much time left for other things. I choose to prioritize school, but I still want to keep blogging, it's just that I have not felt like I've had the time to do so. Now on the other hand, I'm having a one week vacation from school because it's Halloween etc.

It started last Thursday, but I wanted some time to think about the blog before I posted anything. Then I went to see a film with my friends on Friday and went to the stable on Saturday. But today I decided I did want to start blogging again, but now I'm not going to make any promises about when I'm going to post and what not. I'm simply going to post whenever I have time and photos for doing so, but I will say that I'm probably going to be a bit more active this week.

Stockholm - Day 5

Hi everyone! As promised yesterday, here is the last part of the Stockholm series, five parts since we were there for five days. I know some of today's photos are almost like yesterdays, but I still thought both of the photos were so nice I wanted to share both variations. I also added the video I spoke about yesterday to the post, just in case anyone would like to check it out.

I am still feeling sick, but I am going to try and get some photos for the blog tomorrow. It's also time to start writing book reviews, because I read eight books this summer and didn't even review half of them! Hopefully I will be able to start posting a book review every other week again, so stay tuned for that!

 

 

Stockholm - Day 4

Hello readers! Yes, it has been long over a week since I last posted, but I have been so, so sick. During the train ride back home Friday 5th I started feeling cold, my throat hurt. The next days I had high fever and my throat was very swollen and I almost lost my voice. Then then it started to go down into my lungs, and I got a cough. After some time with the cough I went to the doctor and apparently I had pneumonia and had to take antibiotics for ten days. The antibiotics makes my stomach hurt incredibly bad, and that made me feel unwell yet again.

Now, after eating the medicine for some days I don't feel sick anymore - the cough is gone and so on - but my stomach hurt really bad. Regardless, I do feel a little bit better now so I decided to edit the remaining photos from Stockholm and post them. The last day is going to be tomorrow, since we were there for five days. I also edited a little quick video with some clips from the trip one of the days I didn't feel super sick. I'm not too happy with it, but it's up so you can watch it.

Stockholm - Day 3

Hello readers! Today I did not do much, just spent most of the time inside and had a calm day, and it was really nice. Tomorrow is our last day here, and I am probably going to go out and do a little bit of shopping. There are some things I really would try and get, especially since school starts in a couple of weeks. I will probably try to take some photos tomorrow and try to make a post before the train back to Gothenburg.

Today I share with you, a photo of the sunset from Stockholm's archipelago and a hot air balloon that passed by. I thought the photos fit nicely together. And speaking of photos together, you who follow me on Instagram might have notice that it was quite a while since I posted anything. That is because my phone right now is having some problems, but hopefully I can get a new phone soon, so that will be fixed.

Stockholm - Day 2

Hello everybody! I have tried gathering some photos to post since last post - as I promised in that post - and I do have a bunch of photos to share with you, but it's a little bit too late today and I'm really tired. Somehow I almost forget about blogging today, and when I remembered it was late and I was about to go to bed. So I just edited these three photos for you readers today, but hopefully I will have more time and not be as tired when I get back home - train home on late Friday evening. I've also been filming little parts here and there, maybe the clips turn out decent enough for me to put it together into a clip.

Anyway, moving on to talking about the actual photos in this post. These are three photos of Stockholm, taken from the water. I might also mention that the first photo is of an amusement park, just in case you are wondering.

Stockholm - Day 1

Hello readers! I know it has been a few days since I posted last time, it was not supposed to be like that, but I totally thought I had scheduled posts until Sunday. Yesterday I thought I was going to be able to write a book review on the train and then post it when we arrived in Stockholm, but I packed down my computer in my suitcase so I couldn't use it during the train ride, and then I forgot about it.

Today I just wanted to make this quick little post, because I don't want to forget about posting yet another day. Hopefully I will be able to get enough photos the rest of these days - I think that is totally possible - so that I can make lots of posts. Because, as you might know by now, I don't like making posts with more than 5-8 photos. Posts with more photos than that tend to take longer to load and somehow makes it lag a little bit.

Lastly, here is a photo I took right before writing this. I think the sky is very nice, the weather is a bit strange with sudden rains, but the clouds in the photo were nice.

Two year anniversary!

Hello readers! Today is the two year anniversary of my blog. Last year, in my One year anniversary post I recreated the very first photo I uploaded in my first post, Välkommen (Welcome). But this year I felt like I couldn't just do the same thing again. My Hoya Bella - where the flowers are from - isn't blooming either so even if I wanted to I couldn't do it. To be honest I don't have any special photos to share with you. I was thinking about what I could post today, and I decided on a sunset photo.

If you have been following my blog for a longer time, or looked back on my previous posts, you will notice that there is a fair share of sunsets amongst the photos. I love watching the sunset, and I love photographing it. Because of that, I thought I might post a sunset. I also decided to put in a photo of Maja, because she and the other cats have also had a lot of posts dedicated to them over the past years.

Lake photos - 2

Hello readers! A long time ago, probably about two or three months ago, I went to a lake and took some photos. I tried to find the post to link it, but I didn't find it right away so I just ended up not doing that, but it is another post somewhere. Anyway, when I was there I took a bunch of photos but I only posted a few of them at the time, I probably didn't feel like editing all of them back then. Then I forgot that those photos ever happened - shocker I know, I forget to write so many posts I talk about writing... - but now I found them again, so here are some of those photos!

Double rainbow

Hello readers! Remember some days ago when I talked about some books that I had ordered? They arrived yesterday, and when I went to collect my packet it started to rain a lot. The road and the sidewalk got covered in a few centimeters of water and it was very sudden too. Luckily my dad came and drove me home so the books didn't get wet. But shortly after we had come home, this double rainbow appeared and it was outside the kitchen window. I went upstairs, opened a window and took this photo of it. It was fun to get a decent photo of the rainbows, because it's not that often they appear around here, and I think I only have one photo of another, single, rainbow.
