Portraits

"Between light and shadow
In the haze, bleak and gray
In the foggy veil of blue, I was drawn by the dawn
Outlined by the day
There among my own
Reared by my kith and kin
I learnt the words and the everyday chores
The toil, the lot of man"

This year has probably been the hardest for me and @jocke_berg_ since we met about fifteen years ago. I believe it the first time that we’ve both gone through mental struggles at the same time. Because of that, I haven’t had much time or interest in photography. And even less in posting here, especially since the platform shifted more towards video.

But recently I’ve been going through old photos from different travels and hikes, and I’ve started to feel a little spark again. So I’ll probably share some older shots for a while, and if life allows, there’ll be some new work next year.

These two self-portraits are from about ten years ago, taken during the years I lived in Norrtälje. Good memories from a time when life looked very different than it does now..

I don't do photo montages very often nowadays but for this nature photo, that was used for my friends' band, I made some changes. They wanted me to try to change the person to this one of me instead and they decided to use this version in the end. Taken in #Slåttdalsskrevan national park, a big favourite of mine.

Ten years together with my favourite human being today, so thankful our two worlds collided somehow in the strange way it did. Thanks for sharing both beautiful adventures as well as dark times in depression and anxiety, and thanks for being a safe harbour in a world I've never felt that I belong in. ♡

(Long exposure photo from 2012)

Old shot of my better half from 2016, taken with #Pentax645N and #FujiPro400H #120mmfilm (converted to black and white). I'm in love with the bokeh this lense gives the photos. 🖤

My third version of this photo so far (sorry, haha) but it's the one I like the best and decided to use for my exhibition at Black Raven Studio in Umeå earlier this spring. A big thank you to Rebecka for having me and thanks to everyone who came (better late than never I guess)! 🙂
