Hello!
Yes, it is many horse-loving girles from Sweden on FC. I each many of them, because some of them go horse riding on the same "riding school" as me. :) Sweden it´s a very beautiful country and the best with Sweden is all the horses, it´s so many! Canada seems to be nice too, I have always wanted to visit Canada. (:
Hi! Yes, it would be fun if you could comment some of my photos too, but I don't have so many yet. But I see that you've got a lot of good photos!
We're also finally getting good weather here in Sweden, this winter has been very long. Or maybe not long, just very late. I want the summer to come, I love taking photos in the summer.
Oh, I didn't know that so many people from Sweden have photos of horses. Well, I'm not interested of horses so I don't think you're going to see any at my place. :-P
Thanks for your comments Patrick, & from a master such as yourself, it's a real boost for me. Your images here are amazing. You have such a passionate vision of live. Keep up the amazing work & thanks again

Under your profile you say "music matters most" and I couldn't agree with you more. Your turntable shot reminded me of how much I miss playing with vinyl. The large artwork, tactile feel and the mechanical facination of it all. I have now over 30.000 songs and samples in my I-tunes library and the convenience of MP3 and the clarity of AIFF is still no where near the quality of a half speed master pressing with a great cartridge. I had fun "pulling your leg" with the Hendrix title - but your explanation is best for sure. I've gone through your portfolio and really like your night work. I see you have been to Cuba as well. Sonically yours. - Patrick
I agree, I would like to see more suggestions for improving. In fact, realizing mine may be totally off base, I would welcome responses to my own suggestions; I am new to this and am also here to learn so any suggestion given to me is taken in that context.
Thanks a lot for your kind comment on my pictures. Seeing your professionnal work, it touches me very much! :-) I love especially your "Tension drop", just amazing. The "Actor" is so impressive and Hong Kong Laser is great too. And you can make wonderfull pictures on all subjects! That's difficult for me..
For my profile I will make it better... I have already written some words but at the wrong place (in the comments) so you can know a little who you are talking too.. ;-)
Best regards

The photo with the shine and the "hidden teardrop" - no, unfortunately it was real life, but that's how it is sometimes, and photos are quite good means to deal with it or to accept it. Optimism is the magic word or at least a white lie

this is the link to the Marilyn-photo by Cecil Beaton, you are right, he was British =), but mostly took photos of american societymembers. Anyway, not important.
The girl on the photo is a friend of mine, I made a project on paraphrases and tried to "paraphrase" Beaton. I noticed that he always has a very striking backdrop. It is in many cases very artificial. But there's hardly more in it... Pure artificiality, excepting the faces. I can imagine, it was not easy for her to look that way, but in my opinion she did it perfectly. As you said, frightened and fascinated at the same time.
The technique was quite simple. She was lying on the backdrop on the floor while I was standing on a leader shooting her. The photo is a little bit blurred. That is always my problem. Also while taking the photo of the city. I just walked down the street and there was this sky and this "restlessness" in the crowd. They were moving, they were hurrying, bustling. During the editing I noticed that it was a little bit too blurred. But you are right with your advice. I should really pay attention in finding a secure surface. Promise, next time it will be better! Thank you for your comment!
Thanks for your comment! I think its soo fun that prophotografers all over the world can send comments to little me, and others on this site. On my new pictures its just a little "c".
