Today’s photo comes from 2011. My first DSLR was purchased just a month or two before, and I had no idea what the exposure triangle was. This image was shot at f/18, 1/1250, and ISO 6400 in jpg mode. Had I, instead, used something like f/8, 1/250, and ISO 200 and shot in RAW this would have come out so much better. Oh well. Live and learn.

The original image isn’t worthy of showing, but after using Topaz this photograph is no longer that horrible.

Uppsala Cathedral (Sweden)

I spent a day and a night in Uppsala, Sweden this past summer for the first time. I’m in the middle of finishing the fifth book in the Millennium series, and it’s nice to have that experience in mind when Mikael Blomkvist is dashing off to Uppsala for something. BTW, the name on the door of the place next to mine in Uppsala that one night said “M. Blomkvist & Erika”. I did a double take.
