Orange sundown and blue snow
Another picture on the theme “warm and cold”. Shot last sunday (7 feb 2010) in Suttarboda on the hills above my home in Sweden. Not sure about the lens, but it must have been Asahi S-M-C Takumar 55mm/1.8 or Yashica ML 35mm/2.8. I love them both and the picture came out the way I wanted it.
Watching a swedish sundown:
The warm and cold
I’m thinking I’ll make a series out of this theme, the warm and the cold. I got lot’s of the glowing sun in the heavy snowlandscape. I like the symbolism in this, when things feels blue and cold you can probably fins a piece of golden light somewhere ;)
I think this was shot with Yashica 35mm/2.8, however I’m not certain. I almost got stuck there, with a leg dissapeared completely in the snow.
Point your lens at the sun
I think it’s an interesting experiment to point your lens to the sun. Shows if these old things have this possibility. Ad did some experimenting at my last photowalk since I forgot some filters I had planned to use. It’s is winter and very cold here in Sweden. Lots, lots of snow. Sometime up to my waistline. But it was worth it. If not for the pictures for the experience. Here is a picture shot with Yashica MC Zoom 35-70 (if I remember correct) into the sun.
Show me your “into the sun”-picture!
Ice at factory
I shot some pictures of ice at factory here in our village. The contrast from the ice to the factory brickwall is interesting I think. The winter is fun to photograph sometimes, but I long for the summer and longer daylight.
It was a Yashica lens, either the ML 35mm/2.8 or MC Zoom 35-70mm/3.5-4.5. I’m impressed that they made it in the -20 °C cold.
Winter photography
The art of winter photography is really hard. Big contrasts for the camera, snow and ice and shadows. Most of the days I work for the few hours we have daylight. If I’m lucky, I’ll get time to shoot some pictures at lunchbreak or in the weekend.
Shot with Yashica MC Zoom 35-70/3.5-4.5, review here.
