One of my 104-cameras. I have found an original gift-package/104-kit with all you need AND extra flash-cubes!! im really excited about this and I cant wait until it bumps into my mailbox. I have also bought 10 rolls of 126 film which i hope will arrive pretty soon from hungary. Its only iso 100, wish it was 200 but this was the best i could find.

Amazed

Okai so this is not that interesting for others than nature-photographers and nature-people in general. Im just so amazed by the view from my parents house every time I visit them at Andenes. I have been raised in this house and lived here for over 16 years..but now, when its ages between every time I visit, I just can't help staring out the windows for hours. These are taken minutes ago just outside.
Except all this nature-talk, I passed my second exam yesterday and I will be having my third exam tomorrow. I will go back to Oslo on friday to celebrate 17th of may on sunday.
and..uhm, im not a nature-photographer as we all know.

Different things

This is just a video with clips i found while cleaning my macbook.

H&M divided exclusive fall/winter

The new collection from H&M (divided exclusive) is something to look forward to. These things will be released in week 39. If you are interested in watching all items, take a look here.

Outfit

My national costume (for the coastline in northern norway). My grandmother has embroidered all the flowers and it's a shame I don't use it more often. This custume is worth about $4500 with shoes, shirt and all the silver-jewelry that you can't see in this picture. Its really a beautiful outfit, but not a everyday-look.

Tim Burton's Alice in wonderland

Something to look forward to. Coming in March 2010.

Good girl



Im such a good girl. Helping daddy out at the summerhouse. Mom is not really into that house, so i'll do the girly-things in the garden.. and taking photos inside.


After doing my best in the garden, I went to Sortland at a local metal-concert with In Grief.


Tomorrow i'll be going to a civil confirmation, and be wearing my national costume for the first time since last may.

Lee Miller in Hitler's bathtub

Today's tip.
On April 30, 1945, the photographer Lee Miller and Dave Scherman, also a war photographer and a close friend of Miller's, entered Munich with the American 45th Division that was liberating the city. They happened upon a dilapidated and normal-looking apartment building on Prinzenregentplatz 27, and realized, upon entering, that it was Hitler's Munich apartment. They billeted there for three days. Miller wrote her Vogue editor Audrey Winters:

I was living in Hitler's private apartment when his death was announced, midnight of Mayday. . . Well, alright, he was dead. He'd been an evil-machine-monster all these years, until I visited the places he made famous, talked to people who knew him, dug into backstairs gossip and ate and slept in his house. He became less fabulous and therefore more terrible, along with a little evidence of his having some almost human habits; like an ape who embarrasses and humbles you with his gestures, mirroring yourself in caricature.



Before Miller went to Paris in 1929 and became an established fashion and fine art photographer, she was a successful fashion model in New York City.
Vogue cover of the March 1927 edition in an illustration by George Lepape:


I really like the irony and the way she used space in her pictures. Check her out.
(23 April 1907 - 21 July 1977)

Going home

Turning home, yet again. Tomorrow is my first exam and I have all the exams in Northern Norway. Wish me luck.
When I arrived, dad was picking me up at the bus-station..ready with his camera.
On our 1,5hour long ride to Andenes, we stopped at the 200 year (!) old house we have in Buksnesfjorden.
