Black and white photography is where I started, developing and enlarging in my parent’s basement. What is the enduring allure of black and white?

Shrinking selection of new lenses
A Nikon DX camera is still a good option for an affordable camera that can deliver great photos. I should know, I have several of them. But when it comes to lenses the options are limited, at least when it comes to new ones.
Nikon D3000
This is, as far as I know, Nikon’s last camera with CCD sensor, and it was introduced in July 2009, apparently the successor to the D60. I inherited it from my wife when we upgraded her to the D3100.
Stockholm with the Nikon D3000
I spent two days in Stockholm for work, and I had the opportunity to take some pictures with the Nikon D3000 and the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G lens.
Rock’n’roll photographer
Sure, I’m not a rock’n’roll photographer, but I have photographed musicians a few times. These are shots from the rehearsal of a band, probably shot with a Canon 1v, unknown film, but I would have developed it myself.
Collection of old color photos
Here’s a collection of old analog color photos. Not sure what film, but I’d guess some type of C41 Fuji, Tetenal chemicals. Not sure about what camera either, but Canon 1v is a good guess.
Sweden’s Minister for rural affairs visits Enköping
Last night, Peter Kullgren, Sweden’s Minister for rural affairs, visited Enköping, and I was there for work to document the visit.
Battery magazine for Nissin flash
I’ve used the Nissin Di710a flash quite a bit lately, and it works great. One of its best features is the battery pack.
Morning walk with Nikon D3000… and the dog
Another work week ahead, pretty tough to get going this time, not sure why. But I managed to get up and out this morning for a short walk with the dog. This time I took the Nikon D3000 with me, well, my wife’s D3000.
Nikon 18-200mm VR
This lens is a masterpiece. AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF ED VR. Quite a mouthful.
