- Sweden is SO MUCH better for landscape photography than I thought! In this first landscape photography video of mine from Sweden, I visit three different locations and capture some incredible photos. I can't wait to visit Sweden again for photography!

Nice video Mads and welcome to Sweden! As a Swede, it is easy to become "blind at home" to the beautiful nature we have and look outside the country's borders for inspiration. Looking forward to more videos where you explore our landscape from your point of view.
I could not agree more with the blindness to one's area of living. I live on Gotland, and it took me moving away for a few years and moving back to start appreciating this absolute gem of a place properly. A million people visit every year for a reason, right? :)
@@EricTheSwede So looking forward to go back to Gotland someday. I myself am originally from up north but now live in Stockholm. Gotland has lots of opportunities for nice photos. Öland aswell. Overall Sweden has a good variety of landscapes and for me it would be fun to explore Sarek National Park with the beautiful Rapadalen as well as a visit to Söderåsen National Park in Skåne to experience the fantastic beech forest on a colorful autumn day.
Would you mind to share where is is. I would love to come in Sweden for hiking . (I love deep forests, with narrow walking paths. Not big ones)
It's amazing how much this Swedish vista looks like the New Hampshire lakes region, I feel inspired to climb some local hills!
It may be NH. How do I know? The important point is that you’re inspired.
That could totally be a view of Lake Winnipesaukee from Mt Major! 🙂
New Hampshire reminds me a lot of Sweden and Scandinavia in general. Not only the nature looks similar, also the architecture. Many wooden houses, some of which are red as well, which is very common in Scandinavia.
Your enthusiastic approach to photography is as captivating as ever. I really love your minimalist approach to landscape photography. As a former teacher, I’m sure you can handle a little lesson. The app Ventusky is pronounced "ventuskai" as it’s a combination of the Latin word ventus (wind) and the English word sky. I'm still waiting for a video from Switzerland; the hills there would be really steep.
Very nice! So that’s what you call holidays in Sweden. 😂
The last time I was in Dalarna was in 1987 & your video brought back wonderful memories and the images you shared are outstanding!
Sweden is great for landscape photography. You should got to Tjurpannans naturreservat on the West Coast. Great seascapes when the wind is blowing.
a beautiful and simple image that I really like
If I had been in the same place, I would have ignored the tree and only photographed the beautiful background and missed the whole picture. Think that such a simple detail as a tree can make such a big difference to an image .And i had never seen the picture with the small tree and the U shaped stone. And this thing to see these simple motifs are everywhere right in front of me but I still miss it. So just not seeing these motifs is my dillemma
What an epic photo at 8:00! The others look amazing as well. Well done Mads!
Fabulous, Mads. So worth the climb! Thank you so much.
Now, this video I just had to like before even watching all of it. I knew you'd make good photos. Mads, you should consider moving to Sweden. The mountain range continues to the very north of the country and gets more an more dramatic the further north you go. Once you cross the polar circle you'll find the purest gold and the sweetest fruits imaginable. And as for the rest of the country there are so many different environments with all kinds of forests, endless open fields, literally a hundred thousand lakes and unbelievable vistas. There's so much to photograph and so few photographers, it's a gem! Yes, I'm a Swede, and I might be just a little biased LoL!
I moved from Denmark to Sweden 25 years ago and have nature outside the garden. I am fascinated by rocks and forests, and here north of the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist Zone (a fracture zone formed 450 million years ago), there are lots of rocks and rock formations. I have a fault line in the back yard which affects the vegetation and since I do a bit of photography I like to do macro photography as rock vs. vegetation provides exciting contrasts.
You captured some beautiful images. Very nice.
My favorite photo is actually the last one! I only live an hour or so away from where you were, but I've never been! Now I feel inspired to go though. I can only imagine what the forests look like with more fog!
Loved the layers in the final image Mads and the level of detail you capture with your camera is insane at times. I hope you have a successful trip to Svalbard and look forward to seeing what you capture on this occasion
Enjoy your holiday. Carry on. 👍🥂
Really loved your first photo of the lone tree epically as the foreground heather was beautiful lit. I can’t only assume this was through bracketing/ focus stacking. Thank you really enjoyed the video 👍
What a lovely location, really liked the images you captured specially the one at 8:15 , with the back lit tree and light coming over the heather in the foreground is just lovely , well done mate, hope your well, take care !
Nice that you are in Sweden! Great to see places that are familiar! I have been a lot in Rättvik and Stiftsgården, and i have tried to photpgraph the stables a thousand times! 🌞
Very nice. Seems like you had a great time in Sweden. Norway next then? 😉
The High Coast is a must visit.
Beautiful photos as always and also great to see you dealing with conditions that aren’t idyllic. That flat light is something that I struggle a lot with, seams like it’s like that 60% of the time/ year. Living about 5 hours south of Dalarna but I have never been there, find pine tree forests a bit boring, that being said everything has its beauty. Thank you for a great video as always, learn so much from them!
That first spot was amazing...great photos as always!
Those were some really really nice photos!
If you go to Sweden again you really should check out the sunsets in Ramsvikslandet on the Swedish west coast.
Nice to see you in Sweden Mads! And the low shot with the rock in the foreground was really creative, I have to try something like that
Hello Mads. Very instructive to see you handling the problems of choosing your vista, composing the image and waiting for good light and the right moment to get rid of disturbing people. I took a note to remember that you take so carefully the time to work on your images. With great results, I really like the images. Happy holidays and photography fun. Bert.
Thanks for the video. I knew that fist tree was your subject as soon as I saw it. I always learn something from your videos. Vista type shots are very challenging, well all shots are a challenge. Looking forward to seeing your next video.
Mads, very interesting video of a beautiful area. Great compositional advice and lovely shots. Thank you!
Gesundaberget
Brilliant stuff from Sweden ❤ amazing photography and awesome Vibes too , wishes from India 🇮🇳
Hi Matt, I have there last year, same location and I agree it is great for landscape photos! Well done.
OMG I was there 4 weeks ago....I took the Cable car though 😂😂 and your pics were much better
I have an extra ordinary teenage memory from Siljan. It was just past the middle of the summer, at ten o'clock in the evening, and I was on a boat in the middle of a mirror smooth Siljan.
We stopped, and took a swim...
I'm so glad you puff and pant going up hill. I always feel I'm in bad health, but you do a lot more climbing than me. So now i feel a bit better 😂
Beautiful photos Mads. That heather was a fortunate find and made the foregrounds a little more interesting.
Beautiful video Mads! Dalarna is really a top notch region in Sweden. It’s like a compressed version of the whole country in one region where you can find a representation of nearly every type of nature. Love Dalarna. Great work! 🤩
Wonderful images! Great instruction value! Thanks for taking me along!
Thanks for the Tip with Vejle (Fjordenhus and the Wave) got some nice pictures 😉
Welcome to Sweden! I really liked the focus stacked image with the small tree and the rock. If you have time, visit the East coast and especially the Höga Kusten (high coast) if not in this trip, in the next one maybe!
Love the Layers !!
Thanks for sharing iso, shutter speed and aperture. Grateful
I was taking a blacksmith course at Gränsfors Bruk, and drove norh along the coast...interesting to see the really clear glacial uplift, some nice lakes, pretty villages, and the town of Sundsvall...
Looks like you had a good time in Sweden, although just a bit of mist. Have a continued nice time in Sweden. I´d like you to use your Swedish camera when in Sweden. ;-)
Fantastisk😍 tusen takk for dine tips
Good to see you foundsome nice locations.
Was impressed with the southern Sweden, was not there for photography though. Not fan of HD filter in water reflection. The details in the water can be mindblowing with tiny waves
We got Mads climbing my local mountain before gta 6
Super video and beautiful images.
Came down from Dalarna 2 days ago to travel back to Germany :-) Wish you fun up there.
I'm glad you were able to get rid of that annoying thing fluttering in the top of the first tree.
Those mozzies on the top of your beanie were making my head itch after a while. 😄
Very inspiring. Thanks
Wellcome to Sweden
Please travel to the East coast of Canada sometime! You'd love it.
Welcome to Sweden. I just came home from a trip to Grövlesjö in Sweden. I wish I had my camera gear with me.
I have a hard time finding things to photograph here in Sweden. How do you manage to find everything? Which gear did you use in this specific video? I am looking to upgrade to a actual system and I like the type of photographs you done in this video.
My maternal grandmother was from Dalarna.
Hi Mads, very nice video, as always! Remembered me to my holidays in 1994 at Lake Vänern...
Let me ask one question: You criticise the people on the pier between the houses - but why didn't you remove them in your (mostly quite heavy) editing? I saw in some of your photos, as in examples for your Photoshop-editing course, you did remove some people, as well as "organizing" some more elements of the scene. Why do you bother in this photo?
Don't get me wrong - I like your final photos very much, I myself remove/edit some elements as well, if they are annoying, like trash-bins, dirt-spots... but here I'm a bit irritated!
Greets Peter
Awsome video. Would you mind to share the hike name /location. I wiuld live to go hike there. Please
Nice! Just got into photography and I’m planning to shoot some landscape but Sweden in kinda flat, at least our southern part except a few places and I’m looking at the guys from Great Britain (wales) and Scotland with some envy thinking they live the landscape photographers dream! How am I supposed tho take good landscape photographs on a flat place? Is it where the 70-200 comes into place and going for those zoomed objects? 🤔
The lakes must be quite shallow? As i was driving towards Sundsvall, there was a lake on the east side, and there were a lot of "islands", which were just large rocks...like the Archipelago, glaciers made everything quite flat, but with some interesting 'grooves' caused by huge rocks being dragged
/pushed along by the glaciers, with the huge force of the ice above... lots of interesting things, visual and geological !
Siljan is 159 meters deep but the part with the islands is probably more shallow
Another enjoyable video Mads.
Yeah certainly a bit of a climb up there.
Fantastic view's.
Great image's as usual.
Catch you on the next one
Mads i recommend you to visit Gotland
It looks so similar to BC, Canada
If you come back to Sweden for photography, can I do/book a work shop with you? I live in Småland, close to Hultsfred. But it will be so helpful and educational to tag along.
I'm definitely interested too although I live in Göteborg
Maybe not so relevant but when shooting into the sun for a long time do you worry about damaging the sensor? I recently learned that it's even a thing that can happen so I wonder if you take it into account.
The lake Siljan is a result of a meteor impact some 365 million years ago. On satellite photos, a distinct "ring" of lakes can be seen, of which Siljan is the largest.
In Sweden Siljan is the 7th largest lake.
The "mountain" I guess is the one called Gesunda, and is the highest point in the area around the lake at 514m above mean sea level, and 353m above the mean
level of the lake. (numbers taken from Wikipedia). So just above the height of the tip of the Eiffel tower.
In the forrested areas around Siljan, there are hundreds of small "ponds", left behind by the receding ice cap during the end of the ice age. Their size can be from
10m across to a couple of hundred meters across. In summer evenings, these ponds can be mirror smooth, and are an experience to swim in. However, the
difference in temperature between the surface water, and the water less than a meter down, can be a surprising amount of degrees. Though...
beware of mosquitos and horseflies. :-)
depends which part of Sweden --- its a big country
Can’t find the $100 code!
I have visited Sweden several times and found it uh.........a bit samey. Lakes, farms, forest repeat. But you rock up and show there are great vistas to be photographed. I am current in Norway where it's vista overload. But in four days I have a job in Sweden so this time I shall try harder. Thanks for posting.
I'd love to watch your Photoshop tutorials, but for me the uncertainty is too high that I won't be able to apply much of the techniques with the open source tools that I use, or that the way they work is just too different. Unfortunately, Adobe still refuses to support open operating systems
ok, so you did photoshop out a sign and a wind thingy at the top of the tree. 😃
Är det vid Gesunda berget? / Is it at Gesunda mountain?
Ja. Och det andra stället är Tansvägga
Dalarna were dreams became reality
I thought that the church was the most interesting thing in that composition .
Sorry Mads buts that's not a mountain, that's a hill😂
Everybody from Denmark call it a mountain if it’s over 40 meters ;)
@@jonastrom69 😂👍🏻🙈
Sounds like the danes are spoilt with the fog they get...
Stop trying to invade our country again! lol ❤
$375 😂 Should be $19
Är det för en bok eller för en PDF?
