Swedish Photoblogs

Posted by Anna Ikeda

I realized that we are long overdue for a classic picture post, because we haven’t had our fill of images from beautiful Sweden lately. But then I thought that we might as well try something different this time.

Instead of looking at my lame attempts at photography, I decided to share with you a couple of my favorite Swedish photo blogs.

First on the list is Stockholm by Pixels, a delightful photo blog run by Per and Peter.

I love this blog because those guys are super-diligent – a new photo appears every day. And as a blogger myself, I know that’s no easy task.
And the best part? Their write-ups are in English, so even if you don’t feel comfortable reading Swedish just yet, you’ll be OK.

Next on the list are Photos from Haninge by Steffe.

Steffe’s approach is a little bit different, his photos and their accompanying stories fall into the “slice of life” category, and if you ever wanted to see what life is like in a small(ish) Swedish town, this is the blog to visit.

And finally, the third blog in today’s round-up is Stockholm by Plenty. It’s a team effort by the guys of Stockholm by pixels and a few other assorted individuals brandishing cameras. The end result is a blog full of great photos posted with amazing frequency. And of yeah, it’s in English, too.

Since I haven’t asked for any of the blog owners’ permission to repost their photos here, I am not including any. Instead, I invite you to check out their work by clicking on the links in this post.
Enjoy!

    Hi, I also run a photoblog and feature my Stockholm photos here (http://www.underexposure.org/?cat=7). I travel to Stockholm twice or so a year and always pack my camera.

    Tack!

    These are pretty. However, do you have any favorite photo blogs in swedish? Just curious & looking for more places to practice my swedish.

    Fritz, you could try http://www.scanpix.se. My favorite is the aerial pictures of Stockholm: click on Galleri and then on Flygbilder and finally click on the little picture to start the slideshow.

    Thanks, David. The aerial photographs are very nice. I’ve been to many of those places, so it is nice seeing them from a different perspective.

    Hi Anna,
    I read your fun blog about the Jokkmokk Market.
    Would you happen to know who has the copyright for the photo?
    Thanks. I appreciate it!

    I’ve been waiting for weeks but there’s been nothing new, I’m even a little worried, are you fine, Anna? I wanted to get in touch with you but I don’t have your email…
    Snälla, hör av dig!
