Photography in Sweden: Landscape, Travel and Street on an Epic Journey

In this week's photography video, I go on an adventure in Sweden, taking landscape, travel and street photos -- as well as doing some photojournalism for an editorial commission for CNET -- in Sweden and the Arctic. From photographing electric cars on frozen ice lakes to dogs in boxes at Stockholm markets, I captured a lot of different imagery on this trip and it's resulted in a massive, extremely varied video.

It's a long watch and I really hope it's an interesting look at how I approach my photography for both my personal work and for my professional photography as a journalist and editorial photographer.

A quick note on gear. I took only my Leica Q3 43 on this trip and I had a PolarPro Gold Mist filter attached to the front for the majority of the time. It's a great combination that allowed me to travel light. If you want some more insight on the gear I took and why, you can check out this video:    • The Camera Gear I’m Taking On a 2-Week Arc...
