I just wanted to write and tell that I’m still around somewhere here. This is the last week in Copenhagen, at the Scandinavian School of Brewing, and I’ll be home again on friday. Yay! :-)

I’m a bit late with my Sky Watch Friday-post this week too, but I didn’t have the time to make the post yesterday. That was good though, because today I hade the chance to get this beautiful sunset captured on (digital) film.
Sundet is a tiny, tiny village between the tiny village Ställdalen and the large village Kopparberg. Sundet means The Strait in Swedish.
The first photo was taken to the east:
And the second photo is to the west:

This is what a road in the winter should look like! I really hate the salt they’re spreading out on the roads as soon as they can. One of the really good things with the cold weather (below -6 C) is that the salt is useless, and we get this nice winter roads instead of the wet, ugly, salty ones.
Today it’s a bit warmer, around -8 C, so maybe it’s a good day for a trip somewhere? As this day is a holiday (January 6th, Epiphany), at least here in Sweden, I’m not at work today.
Hmm… did I mention that I’m back at the brewery? Due to the recession I lost my job as a Diamond Core Driller (they’ve dismissed 49 out of 85 men), but luckily I could begin at the brewery (Kopparbergs Brewery) again, just two weeks later. I’ve been working as a supervisor at the filling lines at the brewery for six years before I started as a Core Driller.
On Saturday I’m going to a five weeks education at Scandinavian School of Brewing (Bryggerhøjskolen) in Copenhagen, Denmark. It will be a tough challenge, but also a lot of fun. I’m going to live in Svedala, Skåne and take the train over the Öresund Bridge, every day. I hope there will be time for some photographing during the five weeks stay there!

It’s cold and dark here, but that’s normal for this season! :)

It’s been snowing on and off this morning, but as I write this the temperature is climbing towards zero.
One better enjoy this while it lasts:
It’s snowing quite heavily in all the photos - I stood under an umbrella while taking them! It must have been quite a sight for the people passing by! :)

It’s been snowing since Friday afternoon… Today I started my day shovelling snow. We’ve recieved at least 20 cm (8″). It looks like a cristmas card wherever you look! Amazing!

It’s been snowing since yesterday evening, and it’s sooo beautiful outside! But as it’s still snowing I don’t want to go out with the camera - I don’t want it covered with snow…
Here are two photos from my bedroom window:

This is what it looks like here today. No blue sky in sight for miles… Not a very good photo for SWF, but I love the snow covered trees!
Update: The photo is not in B/W, it’s in full color…

Winter is coming closer. I took this photo a couple of days ago, and today we have around 5 cm of snow.

Minus six degrees C, sunshine, and snow on the ground. This must be a good start for a day?
