Hi there! Welcome to my channel.
I live in Sweden on the eastern coast, about 250km north of Stockholm. In a town called Söderhamn. This is a good place to live when it comes to landscape photography in Sweden. Because I have the same distance to the northern highlands as to the beech woodlands of the south. And that is what this channel is about. Me capturing Sweden. Eventually I hope I get to travel other countries and explore all of this worlds beauty. That is my passion. Capturing beauty. Through my camera.
In my videos I want to have a calm mood. Our lives are often so stressful. We keep a high pace in everything we do. I want my videos to help you slow down just a little bit. With that said. I do like drama. So there will be videos with higher pace as well :)
A little bit more about me:
I have a full time job as a CNC-operator. Basically I work with automated machines that mills, drills and threads. I do as much photography as I can on my free time.

Nikon Z7 is it still great for Landscape Photography? | A tribute

In this video I talk about my Nikon Z7. I'm looking to upgrade my camera for landscape photography. But is there a better camera for that purpose within the Z system? Because I'm not so sure there is! In the second half of this video I go for a walk and just try to clear my head of all the thinking and talking about gear. #nikon #landscapephotography #wildlife

My first visit ever to lake Hornborgasjön. Every year in spring a special event takes place at this lake. It's called "The Crane dance". Thousands of cranes gather here before they move on to their locations for nesting.

Really liked the B&W on the one cloud, but watching that wall cloud on video, outstanding!!
Thank you! Cheers! It was a great day for sure. I was in the right place at the right time. :)
Verkligen mäktiga vackra bilder
Tack så mycket Peder! :)
morning exercise bird😀Such wilderness can only be seen in movies
verkligen dramatiska molnformationer Thomas. Molnen har en stor påverkan när man fotar landskap. Fin video.☝☝☝
Hej Roland, tack så mycket! Absolut, moln är viktigt. Älskar moln. :)
Fantastic work, Thomas! I love the black & white photos and the time lapse. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much! Glad you liked it. :)
Wow Thomas, beautiful shots. Nature being itself can so amazing. 👏👏
Thank you! Couldn't agree more! Nature is awsome. :)
Man that was epic ! Beautiful video and perfect music to match it :D <3
Glad you enjoyed it Kenneth! I saw you today. Looked like a long run. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto 11km. Felt really great 😊❤️
Fn vilka fantastiska bilder och video, kul att få vara med fast man sitter hemma.
Tackar tackar! Kul att kunna dela sånt här med andra! :)
Subscribe ❤❤❤
Welcome to my channel! 😀
Wow! Vilken uppvisning av naturen, väl fångat dessutom! =)
Tack så mycket Ulf! Det var väldigt roligt att se den där stormen. Lika roligt är det att kunna dela det med andra genom CZcams. 😀
What a video Thomas loved photo number 3 and the storm in the evening well what can you say brilliant.
Thank you Donald. I was very lucky to be in the right place at the right time. 😀
The stills near the end of the storm clouds were really cool and moody, I enjoyed them more than the videos, I wonder what settings would be best to catch lightening, maybe video screen shots or I don't know what stills settings.
Hi Derrick! Glad you liked it. I think I figured out why I didn't get the lightning on camera as a still. I used to long exposure and the clouds were moving fast. So the moving clouds simply erased the lightning.
Talk about being in the right place at the right time! Outstanding work Thomas!
Hi Mike! Thank you very much. I have been to that location like 30 times. Finally I saw a thunderstorm. But I have to keep going there until I get a lightning on camera. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto Any reason to go back to that beach is a great reason! It's such a beautiful spot. You'll get your lightning shot one of these days, hang in there! :)
I hope so! I saw your northern light photos. Very very cool! :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto Yes, it was incredible and completely unexpected! I just went outside with Sophie so she could pee. I always look up at night, I love the night sky and was amazed at what I saw. Rushed back inside and mounted the camera. I was out there for a couple of hours. My neck got sore from looking up so long Lol
Maybe I should get a dog. :) Never get a chance to photograph northern lights. :)
Wow! What a great experience! Fabulous images!
Hi Karen! Thank you. :)
Fantastic scenes and photos 🙂👍
Thank you very much Stig! :)
Absolutely amazing Thomas.
Glad you liked it! It was a great day. :)
you don't need the best. Must have reliability and consistency. Lens quality makes the biggest difference.
Could use the same lens on the z7 with the adaptor, and then it would be an actual camera comparison
I'm a fan of your b&w's. Again nice work and video 👍
Thank you Volker! I love to capture b&w photos! :)
Hej Thomas! Det var några bekanta vyer. Mittåkläppen, Flatruet mfl. Skall själv dit snart. Trevlig video Hälsningar Hans-Olof från Sala
Tack så mycket Hans-Olof! Kul att du också ska dit! Jag tröttnar aldrig på att åka dit. Alltid något nytt att fotografera. :)
Thank you for another great video Thomas. I'm so glad you had a good trip even tho the weather was kinda harsh. Great pictures as always :) <3
Hi Kenneth! Thank you! I love the car camping life. But 3-4 days is enough. :)
Great video Thomas, your car must be needing a rest with all the miles you cover
Thank you very much Donald! Hehe, yeah that might be true. :)
Great work Thomas! I really like the image at 11:15. Nicely done!
Thank you Brian! Yeah I like that photo aswell. Thank you for watching. :)
Very nice film, photos and nature of course. Could you show on a map of Sweden where you were more or less when making the film?
Thank you Marek! If you look up Funäsdalen and the mountains around it, you will now where I was. :)
Looks like a great trip 👍🙂
Hi Stig! It was! Thanks for tuning in to my channel. :)
Been up on Flatruet a couple of times over the years when my dad and I were up in Långå and fly fishing, it's a beautiful place with a view you won't forget in the first place
It sure is beautiful up there!
Nice job, Thomas. Really enjoyed your video.
Hi Terry! Thank you for your kind words! :)
The top of that mountain was the place to be; no mosquitoes! They have been terrible here lately as it has been ridiculously hot and humid. 39º today counting the humidity, just awful. I'll trade you for your 12º! lol Amazing views from up top of that mountain, wow! You are very fortunate to live where you do with such amazing wide open spaces. It's so heavily forested here you can't see the forest for the trees ;) Superb photography once again Thomas. That shot of the two Reindeer at 11:26 is my favourite this week but also love the "layers" you shot with the 400mm. Excellent!
Hi Mike! Thank you! I hope you get colder weather soon. I get nervous when it's hot outside. Can't really hide from it. When it's cold you can atleast regulate the cold with different clothes. Are you enjoying your Z9? Ofc you are. Hehe. Been on any photo trips? :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto I agree completely. It's much easier to stay warm when it's cold than to cool off when it's hot. Clothes don't really matter much then. We could all walk around naked and we'd still be too hot lol Loving the Z9! I'm still in the process of getting it all set up the way I want, there's so much to configure. I'm busy learning all the AF options. Hudson Henry's YT videos have really helped in that regard. It's a crazy good camera. Now I need a larger ball head or maybe a fluid head as my FLM 38f can't quite handle the weight with larger lenses. It never ends! lol
Hehe, yeah there is always something to buy. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto All a part of the fun eh? :)
Absolutely! I really like my lenses and cameras. Getting a new "toy" can be inspiring. :)
Some great shots in there Thomas with wonderful layered rock formations like by the steam with the longer exposure and if I was there it would be fun to try a 5 min exposure , I watched that part again. Also nice to see you using the 24-70 2.8s lens which is my overall favorite lens but usually for outdoors with brighter light I love the 24-120 4s lens but both are awesome to me. It is interesting to see the Swedish landscape , it looks kind of similar to some areas I have seen here in Canada , but those big layered rocks look cool, cheers.
Hi Derrick! Thank you very much. The 24-70 f2.8 is really really great. Never been disappointed with it's performance. If I would buy a new lens it would be the 24-120. For a all in one lens for long hikes. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto Buy it Thomas, you won't regret it. It's a fantastic lens and probably the one I use the most.
I have a birth day coming up in late september. Maybe I will buy it. Hehe. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto My birthday is Sept 25. I'll get you the 24-120 f4 and you can get me the Plena 😇
Hum, wait a minute...Nice try Mike! :)
Wow Tom!! Beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing. I'm going out this week to capture some of my area.
Thank you very much! Have fun on your photo adventure. :)
Beautiful images!
Thank you! Cheers! :)
I see you're using Leofoto tripods, smart man! Appreciate that! They are based out of Louisiana here in the USA. I am an ambassador for them, and You will get the best Customer Service. They now offer a Lifetime Warranty on their tripods and heads, on anything bought since May of this Year. Thank Youi!
Hi George! I'm very happy with my tripods. Got two from Leofoto! :)
Beautiful imagery and well done presentation. The D90 was a good camera, and it had zealous fans back in the day. I have and use on occasion, a D300, and much prefer it. I also own a Z7 like yourself, but I struggle with that camera, and the WB. In the birch tree shot, were the actual colors a bit ‘jaundiced’ near the tops of trees, as shown in the Z7 photo, as compared to the one from the D90? On my IPad Pro tablet, that is what I’m seeing? Some of the photos, with the D90, whilst clearly not as sharp, appeared to have better color, which is of course, subjective. Obviously the Z7 is going to dust the D90 when it comes to color gradations and tonal qualities, but the D90 held its ground, and it was too bad it didnt have a better lens. Take care stay safe and Happy Shooting! 👍✌
Beautiful video! What camera do you film with?
Thank you! I mostly use a Nikon Z6. But in this video I also used a DJI pocket 3.
I do not use Nikon, but if I did I would get the Nikon Z 400mm 4.5 because it is so small and light weight and at the same time with excellent optical image quality. I use Sony and have the excellent Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports Lens, I always use the Lens Hood, for protection of sun, stray light, rain and dust ! I never use filters and I never do videos. If an accident happens, then a filter can potential harm the Lens more than if you use a Lens Hood !!!
Nice, thanks!
Fina bilder 😊 Var där på samma strand på midsommar afton å satt å filosoferade 😀
Hallå hallå! Tack! Det kan jag tänka mig. Så himla fint där. :)
Much appreciated your consideration for the nature and its vulnerable elements. Nice video, Thomas, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you! :)
I haven't read all of the comments but did you upgrade the D90 with the distortion software upgrade? I'm also debating buying a Z7 strictly for the megapixel count.
Hi there! No I have not upgraded any firmware. Not really using that camera anymore. You could get a very good price on a used Z7. Very nice camera.
I am fine but live in Colchester which is in England but born in Scotland
Oh my bad. Not as hot as Texas then. :) I watch a lot of CZcamsrs from England. They allways visit very beautiful locations. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto very flat around here, but some lovely coastline, the highlands of Scotland are beautiful well worth a visit.
I would love to visit Scotland someday.
Great video again love the photo with the 10 stop filter
Hi Donald! Thank you. How are you? Is the weather hot in Texas? If I recall your home state correct. :)
Love the video! keep it up <3
Thank you very much! :)
Hej Thomas! Trevlig video och trevlig miljö. Många av "dina" miljöer ligger nära Sala men ändå lite för långt bort för en dagsutflykt. Panoramabilden i dimma är verkligen bra. Hälsningar från Hans-Olof i Sala
Hallå hallå! Tack så mycket. Det blir nog fler resor ner till Gysinge till hösten och vintern. Det är lite närmare dig. På semestern åker jag ända upp till Abisko! :)
Flott film i skogen 👍🌲
Thank you very much Stig! 😀
@@ThomasRaskPhoto 👍
Thank you for a great video Thomas. The early morning photos were so calming to look at <3
Hi Kenneth! Thank you! I hope you're having a good time on your vacation. 😀
The first video of the misty morning was beautiful! So calming. The still shots are great! You really have a good eye for
Hi Karen! I sometimes wake up to mist and fog. Pretty much never happens on weekends. Hum, I wonder why that is!? Thank you for tuning in this week. Have a great day! :)
Never a dramatic cloud around when you need one! lol But, it ended up working out nicely. I like that shot. I really like your car setup, so cozy. I would have a hard time getting out of there too. Those rocks are incredible, such cool formations, and your final long exposure shots worked out very nicely as well. Good work!
Thank you very much Mike! I can see on your FB that you are using your new 500mm lens. Very cool pictures of the swallows. Did you use the ZF? :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto You're welcome Thomas :) I went looking for White Pelicans to shoot that day. They are beautiful birds, and slow, easy to photograph. Didn't see one pelican but found a bunch of swallows instead. Wow they are FAST!!!!! Having never shot anything like that before I really struggle to keep up with them. And yes, I had my Zf mounted on the 500 pf. No way my Z7 ii could have tracked those birds at all. The Zf did well, I just need a lot more practice with birds that fast. LOTS of practice!! Lol
You did very good with the swallows! Looking forward to the pelican shots. :)
@@ThomasRaskPhoto Thank Thomas, that is kind of you to say :) I look forward to the pelicans, if only I can find them! They hang out in several different spots along the lake and a few of the rivers close to home but I'm always at the wrong spot at the wrong time! lol
That's the thing with wildlife. Never do they behave as we want. Well almost never. ;)
beautiful landscape photos! Great work!
Thank you so much 😀
