Hi Bjørnar! I reckon that it is easier to get from Bergen and Norway to Gothenburg than it is to travel all the way from from China :)

I hope many readers here are enjoying all the wonderful photos on your blog (http://rantenhagen.blogspot.no/) as much as we do. The quality photography there is an inspiration as well as a pleasure to see. :-*

Rumors tells us that Peter is going to Bergen next spring :) Let's hope it's true!

Thanks for your kind words about our blog. Now when it is dark before we reach home from work there will be no photographing and little blogging. But soon turns the sun again!

I use a Nicon D5200 with kit lens 18-55mm. I also have a 4 x Close up filter (52mm) Not very expensive and just as good as a macro lens?
