Exhale in Montmartre

Slow and distant walk.
What do you do, when you’re supposed to stay away from people. Well, you can still take pictures of them – as they stay away…
All taken in Gothenburg, end of May.

Dancing in the streets.
Once a year the “Andra Långgatan” in Gothenburg turn into a hot, loud and quite vivid street scene. Dancing, you might call it. #heladagenlång , meaning “all day long”. But it feels as a late nite rave party, more than anything else…

When it’s raining in Paris
Recently came back after a week of street photography in Paris, France. Fun week, with friends, good food and drinks and lots of images. And… not so much summer weather. It actually rained quite a bit. But, as a street photographer, I just happily took a few photos.
These I took mostly on “rive gauche”, the south river bank of Seine a very different day. I think we had at least two thunderstorms pass and wind and sun. All mixed upp. Yes, we also had two rounds of hail…

Two kids and a bench.
Just came back last week from a three night stay in London. Didn’t do much else than street photography this time. The first day I looked up the south bank, just walking aimlessly. And there was this extraordinary bench. With a kid on it.

Breaking bubbles.
Spent a looong weekend in Rome in April and got some nice pics during the trip. Did pass Trastevere a few times too and at one time there was this street artist making lots of bubbles. And the kids played…

Hot and wet.
Last summer it was hot and wet in Chicago, this year the very same (and not so common) weather here in Gothenburg. So here a few pics on how to cool off.

Runners and spectators.
Shot a few pics at this year’s Göteborgsvarvet, the world’s largest semi-marathon event, held every May in Gothenburg, Sweden. These pics are more seldom faces and more often unidentifiable people as on-lookers, if you get my drift. This is in part because the pics will be used commercially. I still think that they are “street”. Agree?
