Electrophotonic Timesinks

Yesterday I headed off to Nikon HQ in Solna to have my D40 DSLR Checked & Cleaned. On the way I got sucked into one of my Photo Strolls, this time around Hagalund. The weather was great and everything had suddenly turned very autumny (been holed up inside playing video games and working on this blog too much the last week, I guess). The whole service took 15 minutes instead of the expected two or three days, so I left with my camera ready for more shooting! I decided to take a stroll through Haga Norra cemetary on the way back. It’s ginormous and has some very impressive family graves.

It’s been ages since I photographed semi-seriously digitally, and my old editing software was all Mac-only. There photos where (hastily) edited in Lightcraft’s Lightzone, which is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. I haven’t used it that much yet, but I like the workflow and the tools it provided. It’s a bit different from other photography workflow I’ve used, but the tools seem more geared towards photography than the Photoshop-esque stuff found in most other image editing software. It’s also fast enough to be usable on my little Aspire One netbook.

Anyway, enough talking. Here’s some photos!
