Stockholm...

[fahim mohammed]

Ayesha was fed up with carrying part of my camera gear. Rightfully so. Out of necessity, I did Sweden with a Nikon and the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 D.

About 2 weeks. D300 + 50/1.4D. Most photos I might post here from Sweden are from that trip.

The greatest benefit? Ayesha started loving me again.

Sometimes less is more. This is a richly detailed image Fahim. I can't wait to see some more.

Steve, so glad you could stop by to have a look. Please find attached another from the series.

Thank you once again.

Hi Fahim,

I like this!

So you are really going to be using these filters. Can you just include a brief reference so we can be on the same page.

Then I'll come back to the picture!

Asher, thanks for your comments.

No filters ( curves, layers, blend modes, gradient and brush ) only on these and following ones. I shall of course mention any commercial filters other than CS, if used.

Fahim, a lovely set from your Scandanavian adventure. Your one smallish body and one lens approach doesn't seem to have been a limitation.

But I wish that they wouldn't insist on using these ugly lightbulbs in their outdor lights. I have photos full of them...:)

Mike, thanks for looking.

If not for the electric cables I would have always imagined those lamps to be gas lit!!

As they should be in our backwards looking photographic vocabulary:)

Like the new one too.

One of the main criteria for places we visit is the ease, efficiency, safety, pleasure and availability of the public transport system.

For us cars should be a choice and not a necessity.

This, for whatever reason/s, leads us to ' Old Europe '.

Sweden is no exception. Excellent transport system. When you need it.

Couldn't get cheaper than this and neither more environment friendly.
