It was warm outside last night, maybe 1-2 degrees, and the thin layer of snow seemed to be melting.
I went out for a photo walk around 22:30, going toward the city hall on Norr Mälarstrand, hoping to get some nice glittering lights from Västerbron. Unfortunately the warmness of the air was accompanied by fog, transforming my photo adventure on the shore in a lame drag with the tripod on my back.
After disturbing a little bit the ducks pictured above, I rushed myself toward the city hall, to get some lights in the frame.
I set up the tripod across the street and soon after, a drunk gentleman appeared in front of the camera in the middle of a long exposure and said something imperceivable, probably even by a Swede. I smiled, made the international gesture of “move away from my frame, please” and pursued with the image below.
On my way back on Kungsholms Strand, I saw a fox rushing from the top of the hill near the building on the left, toward the frozen water behind me. The channel wasn’t fully frozen and I thought the ice will crack under it, but the fox knew better.
I went up the stairs and discovered an interesting place called Grubbenparken. It’s a circular area of about 100m diameter, with trees and a small church delimited by colored buildings. I’m waiting for the next sunny day, which will probably arrive in a couple of months, to get there again for some vibrant colors.
I got home 3 hours after I left, drastically hungry and tired.
