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.

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…

“A wet walk”
Family in the rain
“Keeping her dry”
“Puff in the rain”

So when you are under bridges, trying to stay dry and you’re a kid? Let’s have some fun with water.

“Collecting rain 1”
“Collecting rain 2”
“Collecting rain 3”

Hot and wet.

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?

With photographs from London, Lisbon, Berlin, Chicago and Gothenburg my exhibition turned out quite ok. As a creator you always see the small flaws and all, but taking two steps back even I can think: “I’m ok”.

It’s hung inside the Swedish Television and Swedish Radio broadcasting building in Gothenburg, so not that easy to access it. But for me, as a first ever, it is nice enough. You like it too?
