I was sitting in my camping chair with coffee and buns when I suddenly felt watched. Looking towards Åsunden at Karlavik, I found a mink watching me; when I carefully reached for the camera, it ran towards the remains of the old harbour. It paused there among the rocks in the clear early evening, giving me this photograph—one I like very much.
