Last week I implicitly became an "official" photographer of two local events: FORMATS'05, International Conference on Formal Modelling and Analysis of Timed Systems (Uppsala, Sweden) and ARTIST2 Summer School (Nässlingen, Sweden). The conference took place mostly indoors and the school - on a small island in the Stockholm archipelago, located about 50 km north east of Stockholm, which has been converted into a modern conference centre, but retained its old genuine character. The weather was perfect, the Baltic sea cold as usual (too cold to swim without having sauna first :), and the colourful fall of leaves hurried the last days of the warm Indian summer.
