Noe said at 9:41 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: This is awesome! The place is fantastic Anna and the shots... perfect!
Saulblum said at 9:45 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: That's a lot of snow! Where is Idre Fjäll? You certainly did capture a winter feeling.
SeánanForbes said at 9:53 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: You write about being out of snow and then post a tabblo with snow deep enough to bury one storey. It's astounding. My current favourite is the second down on the right. I feel I could breathe into that photograph, into that space. (Ask me in an hour and my favourite will have changed.)
Decoy said at 9:53 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: Noe, I think you've had more snow than me this winter! I still long for winter so I scanned some slides to see some snow! =)
Saul, Idre Fjäll (fjäll=mountain) is in the middle of Sweden but very close to Norway. It's a resort for skiing etc. By scooter you can easily get to the parts over the tree-line. The weather can change very quickly, on our way home we could only see one "red cross" at the time.. it was like almost getting lost in the snowfog, a little bit scary!
SterlingGray said at 9:54 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: Very beautiful Anna, what a wonderful place to visit. Looks like you had a great time on the snowmobiles.
Decoy said at 10:05 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: Seanan, it's very special to be out one those white clear and open spaces - there's a lot of air to breathe! =)
Sterling, it was fun! I was glad I wasn't one of those that made it to the top by skiing! =)
Decoy said at 10:09 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: I used an analog SLR-camera by then, and I wonder how a digital one would make the weatherconditions.
Lifequest22 said at 10:27 p.m. on Feb 24, 2008: Anna-you really captured the beauty. Glad you didn't get lost.
Leftofcenter said at 7:08 a.m. on Feb 25, 2008: it's not like we have a lack of cold & snow over here (and I'm kind of TIRED of it!) but when I see it like this......... beautiful photos!! if I had to pick a fave, #2 the cabin, almost looks like a teepee.
Hhwind said at 7:09 a.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Its so beautiful
Saulblum said at 8:00 a.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Hi Anna, Tack så mycket for the info! What film were you shooting? Slide or negative?
Decoy said at 9:32 a.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Thank you Linda, Leftie and Teo. It was magic, and I'm glad some of it can bee seen in the pics! =)
Saul, I was shoting slide. I was "addicted" to Fujia Velvia (50 asa) back then - but think these are with some Kodac slide film.
Krisu said at 10:57 a.m. on Feb 25, 2008: You almost made me cry here! This is the worst winter I can remember, no snow! Just awful rain and too warm weather. Wish I had an opportunity to go to Lappland but no... Love your tabblo! :)
Decoy said at 1:21 p.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Krisu, I miss it like you do. I got an email that these pictures made him think of Rolling Stones "winter", and made it even more of a winter blues that way. I think there are many with us that miss the snow, light and the silence it gives.
Rheap said at 1:47 p.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Fantastic shots Anna!.. All of them are superb captures of the weather..
Chiloedream said at 5:25 p.m. on Feb 25, 2008: Magique, le rêve bleu de la neige. merci Anna.
