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 ;)

Warm and cold, part1

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.

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.

Behind the leafs I could control the visual effects a bit. I wanted to do something different then all the pictures of autumnleafs I do every year.

And the Yashica-lens ML 35mm/2.8 makes it justice. I’m going to start using more of my photos in my webdesign – I think that can work…
