Feels good to be back and up and running again. The picture is a few months old but today I had time to work with it for a while.

contest ends 31/8 2008

I just entered this picture in a photo-contest, unfortunately it’s one of those contest where the winner is the one with the most friends. If it was a jury I might stand a chance but since it’s not I’m asking you to help me out by voting. Just click on the number below the picture, 10 being the best.

Many thanks/

Marcus

It’s been a while but that’s the way it is at the end of the semester and now working every day. The weeks just pass by like days and one day you found yourself not having made a single post in a month. Well this is it, the latest post. It’s not one of my personal favorites, I like the darker and gloomier pics myself, but it turned out alright so I’m posting it just to post something.

Not much to say about this one. I’m basically shooting anything now. I like bricks though. I just walked around town taking pictures when I found this door.

Nothing out of the ordinary. Took lots of pictures of this house but found it difficult to find some interesting angles. This was in my opinion the best one. I’ve also added a layer(a close up of a copper door) and some textures.

Tom Waits to Europe but no scandinavian tour dates

My first post in a while that isn’t a photo. Anyway, Tom Waits is going on a very small european tour this summer. Unfortunately there will be no shows in scandinavia or even germany for that matter. Ticket prices range from about 90€ to 140€, expensive shows in other words. I saw him in Stockholm back in ‘99 and it was expensive then too. Judging from the responses on the Anti labels blog a lot of fans are disappointed in the extremely limited tour dates as well as in the expensive tickets. There are a lot of demands by these fans  for added tour dates but I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

The title is absolutely true, I promise. Well maybe not entirely true but close enough. I want it to be true because if it were I would feel at home in this world.

This is a strange picture taken on a normal day. It’s from the tunnel just outside my apartment and while walking through it I looked down at the Duaflex viewfinder and saw this.

I have no idea what this is but it’s located near the rails.

A different kind of tea-party

From the same trip as the “The old woman looking out the window” photo. I can’t decide about the colors on this one. Sometimes I think it’s to pale but sometimes I like it. The thing I always like is the tree with the cups and tea-pot hanging from it.
