Welcome to my blog!

My name is Mikael Johansson and I am an amateur photographer from Sweden. This is my photo blog.  I mainly present pictures of wildlife, especially birds. I started to photograph birds 2008 and the main purpose with this blog is to show some of the pictures, get criticism and develop my photographic skills.

I work a lot with sportfishing (travel agency and magazine). Now and then I will post pictures from some of my travels. Eventually I will collect them all in an archive.

Every new bird species I photograph can be found in the archive. Click on Birds in the menu above. There are lots of documentation pictures, but also som good ones.

Please leave a comment!

Enjoy your stay!

Rooster Fish!

I recently came back from a fishing trip to Panama. We had a great time and caught a lot of different species in various sizes. But the crown jewel of the Pacific got to be the Rooster Fish. I think they are one of the most stunning and beautyful fishes in the world. Have a look at this one!

Nostalgia

I took this picture when I was 12 years old. I´m now, *cough*, 34 years old. The picture is technically really, really bad, but it´s still one of my favourite pics. We were ringing (ringmärkning in swedish) juvenile owls (Tengmalm´s Owl/Pärluggla) and I took a couple of shots with my first system camera (Konica. Thanks to my parents!). Owls has ever since been my absolute favourite and I´m sure that´s quite obvious for you who follow this blog. And that´s the reason why I haven´t posted any bird pictures lately. I´ve been chasing owls. Without luck. But the project remains active. As long as I live. :)
