det här är nog min absoluta favorit just nu! kanske för att jag varit där och är uppväxt där men det är riktigt grymt! iomed att motorvägen går som den gör kan det va jättesvårt att få en schysst bild. Men då gör man som du, tar den i farten!

Ja jag är väldigt nöjd med den också, den var ju inte den som man var mest säker på om den skulle bli skarp eller ej.

I find the grey border and the watermark make the picture. Instead of it being a security thing the colour and placement make it seem more like a signature addition than a flaw in the photo ans the strip of grey define the space while keeping it open. Finished looking pictures are so hard to find. I wish I could tie things up like that.

Thank you, I got a suggestion of making the border in the same color as the watermark so I changed it. Thanks for liking it so much!

taking pictures from a moving bus is hard es hell. i know because i tried in ireland and failed most of the time. but this picture is stunning and beautiful and even more precious when you think about the circumstates.
i love the landscape and i love ruins. if i ever come to sweden i need to see this

I whish it had stopped, the sunset with large banks of fog on the large lake behind the castle was wonderful, but some photos got alright at least. Thanks for the fav! !

this is what i love about your photography you take a simple shot and make it extravagant. your pictures are all full of life. the feelings, the aura of it, it all becomes tangible. even in dark photographs such as this there is a light that still emanates. youve a good eye.

Really beautiful shot... hard to believe it was taken from a moving bus.

I think you have a knack for dark shots.
