Slow afternoon at a lighthouse at the end of the spit

It has been a while since my last trip to a lighthouse at the end of the spit. I tried a few long exposures, but the wind had other ideas. The handheld shots turned out better anyway.

Back to the city's oldest market

A friend suggested the city's oldest market months ago, and this week I finally went. I kept a paper notebook this time, writing down the time and the light for every roll.

Snow tracks and rain on glass

I went to a lighthouse at the end of the spit with a phone and nothing else and no particular plan. Shooting with a phone and nothing else meant I had to get closer than I am used to, which was uncomfortable at first.

A morning at an abandoned railway line

It has been a while since my last trip to an abandoned railway line. I tried a few long exposures, but the wind had other ideas. The handheld shots turned out better anyway.

Wild flowers at the northern lakes

The alarm went off before dawn, and by six I was already at the northern lakes. There is something calming about returning to the same spot and noticing small changes since the last visit.

I went to an abandoned railway line with a pocket camera and no particular plan. The path was muddy and longer than the map suggested, but the view at the end made up for it.

A short walk: a lighthouse at the end of the spit

The alarm went off before dawn, and by six I was already at a lighthouse at the end of the spit. Locals barely noticed me. A man feeding gulls told me the place looks completely different in spring.

A short walk: an empty beach in November

I went to an empty beach in November with a pocket camera and no particular plan. Halfway through I switched to black and white, which suited the unhurried weather much better.

On fog

A friend suggested the pine forest behind the town months ago, and this week I finally went. Most of the morning went into watching fog; I took fewer frames than usual, but each one felt deliberate.

Three days at an abandoned railway line

I went to an abandoned railway line with a pocket camera and no particular plan. Most of the morning went into watching wild flowers; I took fewer frames than usual, but each one felt deliberate.

Notes from an abandoned railway line

The forecast promised rain, so naturally I headed to an abandoned railway line. I kept a paper notebook this time, writing down the time and the light for every roll.
