Adventure in Nynäshamn, a quiet coastal town an hour south of Stockholm

I wanted to explore somewhere not within walking distance of my apartment, and after some cursory Google Earth research I took the commuter train to the end of the line.

It was a beautiful sunny day outside, and here you see the Södermalm shore as the we pulled away from central station and crossed the bridge til Slussen.

Nackareservatet: 16km hike from Saltsjö-Duvnäs to Erstaviken

It was a beautiful, sunny day yesterday and I decided to capitalize on it by making a long journey through the forests of Nacka kommun’s nature reserve. I took the Saltsjöbana a few stops further than mine and got off at Saltsjö-Duvnäs station, which is right on the edge of the wilderness.

I couldn’t believe how colorful some of these photos turned out straight from the camera, but it really was a pleasant day.

WWI bunker remains in Täby

First post: Myttinge / Rindö Adventure in Stockholm County

This is the first post on my photoblog, so let me set a few things straight. When I go exploring with my camera, the central goal of my picturing is to reproduce my journey as accurately as possible. To that extent, the only time my D90 comes off auto is when the camera’s having trouble making a picture like my eye sees it, and my eyes don’t tend to stare closely at flowers or see the world in black and white. If you are looking for a hipster art blog, go somewhere else. Everything is in chronological order, and I try to comment only as much as necessary to glue a story together. Ok lets go..

My day started at 0830 when I took a two minute bus ride to the ferry terminal at Nacka Strand.
