Photos of a beaver

June 12th, 2009 Peter Korkala

This Wednesday I saw two beavers swimming around in the lake in Sundet. It was a fabulous feeling to be so close. I had the EF 80-200 lens mounted at that moment, and I didn’t want to waste time switching to the 400 mm. But next time I will bring you some 400 mm beaver shots. :)

Some of the photos are cropped.

My favourite lake

May 24th, 2009 Peter Korkala

This is my favourite lake, just about 10 minutes from here by car. Located in the middle of nowhere, in the woods:

It’s the same lake as in the last Sky Watch Friday-post.

Heavy rain, Lake Hörken

July 17th, 2008 Peter Korkala

On my way to Grängesberg today I drived  by Lake Hörken. It was raining very much at the moment, so I didn’t want to step out of the car. The picture is taken from inside the car (yes, I stopped at a safe place first).

Here’s a photo I took a couple of minutes ago (about 10:30pm), when I was walking one of our two dogs. It’s not perfect in any way, the sky is overexponated and the trees to the left are unsharp. But it will serve as a first photo taken in the dusk. I will have to practice more, and probably bring the tripod (but not when I’m walking the dog). And as you see the weather got better during the evening.
