I have attended the press photo festival several years. Always in fond memory for the exhibitions, workshops, colleagues and the city. A special theme for my own photography has been “door art”. You will understand when you see my pictures. Always lively in color and graffiti. The door knobs not to forget. Photographers tend to like the small things that will catch the eye, but perhaps not what everybody can see.
When ever I go on a journey and bring my camera, I am looking for a theme to explore. In Perpignan it wasn´t difficult to find one.
Could it be? I miss writing and posting here on my blog, so I should try to better myself during this new year. Posting new and old photographs. And writing about photography. Mine and others. I am today a pensionist, but still active and I really love my profession. So here to start this new year is another look in the rear view mirror. Some photographs for Bågar & Glas here in Stockholm. I brought them out from my archive and updated them with some new color. Bågar & Glas is a well established optician in Stockholm.
Recently I had the above image from Paris accepted by yourdailyphotograph.com. All very well and I feel really happy about it. However, I always do series. It is very rare that I just do one photograph of a subject or composition when I am walking the streets with a camera . Same thing here in Paris with The Eiffel Tower. Below I present the other photographs from the series. Photographed through a curtain while I had a cup of coffee with my friend and colleague Ilian. Now I like the other two images just as much. How about you? What is your opinion? Should I have sent one of the other images? It was a good day for photographing in Paris, and now I would just love to go there soon again for more photography and culture. Wine and coffee.
It has been SO long since I last wrote something here on my blog. Now is a good day to start all over again. This image just got selected by YourDailyPhotograph.com Last time I published some images was november 2019, from Paris. The year and the visit when this image was made…
