Holy Macaroni!

I finally got new pictures! However, as I feared, one of the rolls was light damaged. But on one of the rolls, I found this! How groovy isn't this double-exposure?

Window

Santa was good to me this year. I did get 120 mm film! I got 5 rolls of Kodak Portra 400vc and I can't wait to try them out.

Expecting

Again I'm eagerly awaiting a couple of rolls from my developer. Hopefully they're not closed for X-mas. I'm expecting some mad photos from the company's "kitchmas" party. I also hope Santa has heard my wishes for 120 mm film so DirtyDiana can get a new friend, nicknamed "The Chinaman" (a.k.a Seagull).

Buckle up

Woke up to another beautiful winter morning. A bit surprised that the snow actually stays and not turning into a gray mush like it use to. So buckle up, friends! Grab your mittens and sleighs, let's go out and play!

The first days of Snow

I like snow. I love waking up in the morning and se my courtyard covered in untouched snow. I ran outside with DirtyDiana in a firm grip and took some pictures before hurrying to the train. What I don't love about the snow is that every year we seemed surprised of it falling from the sky, the traffic chaos that follows. But I'm not complaining. At least I can look back and say: Yeah, we had some snow last year, a week before Christmas. You'll be able to see some snowy pictures in a week or so...

Wheel of Fortune

I don't really get the big wheel on the main square. It costs 100 kr and the view is that exciting...

Flake

Yesterday was the night of the annual company Christmas party. This years theme was kitch. The party venue was filled with people covered in glitter. I managed to fire off three rolls but due to an accident I think the rolls are soaked in beer and I know one sustained light damage. Keep your fingers crossed and I'll post some photos soon.

Autumn

It's been awhile, I know. Sorry about that. I wanted to snap a few pictures of the lovely autumn colours but due to the lack of sun, it took longer than I planed. Now I just got three new rolls of film developed and here's one.

Kaleidoscope

I've started to experiment with my Diana. In this image I put a kaleidoscope-lens in front of the shutter... The light didn't penetrate the lens as much as I wanted.

Red

I'm running out of pictures to post at the moment. I think it's time to send a new batch to my most eminent developer. I also need to get better at taking more pictures which is not the easiest to do considering it is pitch black when I get home from work. Prehaps it's time to build a mini-studio at home and experiment...

MonkeyBusiness

A bit late updating... sorry. Work is finally picking up. After months of sitting around not doing much, things are starting to change... for the better in my opinion. I hate sitting around doing nothing. I'm sure I'll regret my own words soon...

Canale

So its Wednesday... The weather forecast reads 3°c and rain... Can things be more depressing? Well, yeah it could... However, I hope this image cheers you up just a little bit.

Alien

In 1291, the glass makers of Venice were forced to move to Murano due to the risks of fire. In the following century, exports began, and the island became famous, initially for glass beads and mirrors. Today, the artisans of Murano are still employing these centuries-old techniques, crafting everything from contemporary art glass and glass jewelry to Murano glass chandeliers and wine stoppers (?).

Friday

Today it's Friday! Fridays are nice. Fridays have a tendency to set the mood for the whole weekend. Since it is the Halloween-weekend (or Allahelgona as its called here) I thought it would be a good idea to post an image of Max taken a couple of weeks ago when we were at a friends birthday party. And yes, he's in a costume! Happy Halloween to you all!!

Rialto

I know its a bit early to update today (every third day) but I have so many images I want to share with you. Especially the ones from Venice. A few rays of sunlight in a, now, quite dark time of the year. This image isn't the sunniest one but you just have to imagine the the warmth of the ancient walls...

Hats

I like hat, Jimmy likes hats. People wear hats to seldom. Hats are a great way to save a bad hair day, to cover up a receding hairline (which is not the case with Jimmy) or just to make an outfit more fun. So my message this time is : Don't be shy to wear hats!

Little Rock n' Rolla

Iris is almost 2 years old now. I think she might have a career in music. She's a big fan of drumming on things and I think she liked my GuitarHero-guitar. So, look out world! Little Rockn'Rolla is coming for you!

Brennerpass

Trains again... This is an image I took when the train stopped in the Brenner Pass. I got a really bad wibe there. I don't know why. Maybe I've seen to many war movies. The Brenner Pass is a mountain pass through the Alps along the borders of Austria and Italy.

Nemo

This is Nemo, one of the coolest little dudes around! It's always fun to goof around with him. As you might noticed, I haven't included a soundtrack to this one. It's not because of the image, just my lack of imagination to create another playlist. I'll still make them, just not as frequent.

Azure

If you haven't guessed by now, yes, I am feeling a little blue. I think the transition between a sunny Venice and a cold, windy Malmö has taken a greater toll on me than I could ever imagine. But don't worry, I'm sure it's just a phase. Soundtrack: azure

Strings

I have this weird love/hate relationship with trains. My daily trips are not that fun but by going to Venice by train left a lot of time just looking out, staring at the different landscapes. This is outside of Berlin, early in the morning. Soundtrack: Strings

Waves

I really miss the water... I know I said it before. Maybe I was a fish or something in a previous life. If one believes in those things... Soundtrack: waves

Memories

Got new rolls! Which is a good thing. My memories from Venice is slowly starting to fade because of the gray mass that is Malmö... I really miss the canals of Venice, the closeness to the water. Soundtrack: Memories

Bubble

Back from Venice! Time to update this blog. Unfortunatly, no new pictures yet so you have to settle for this one in the meantime. And one smashing soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/26ARwuXNdBEBYhzdqOTfQ0

Horror

It seems to be one of those days... It's raining outside, it has been raining all day off and on. I'm feeling like maybe staying in all night watching horrormovies. What's your plan? Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/5anMeIiX2CkouiwH7iESJ4

Summers' end

The summer is almost at its end. I'm kinda looking forward to the autumn. The crisp, clean morning air, the the trees changing colour and long sunday walks. Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/5ek7hvP6RZevRJ6gdGlnHR

Glitter

Today I woke up in an apartment covered in glitter. My own apartment but never the less. It felt almost magical, the atmosphere of yesterdays amazing party still lingering. Then the smell of stale beer kicked in. Thank you all for coming yesterday, I love you all...

Today I stayed home from work with a slight fever and a sore throat. I hate being sick, I get so whiny. Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/2fCcR0DJKmWfAqOmd8qwbc

Spotlight

Late again updating! So sorry!! This weekend the annual town party started. I really like the free konsert but I could do without the drunken masses in the street, the sticky smell of Langos, elk-kebab and other weird stuff that you wouldn't even consider as food on a normal day!
Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/1UodkGraT3H02FbgJwzWCY

ParkLife

Trying to come up with a songlist for this one, I found myself getting caught up in mid-90's indie pop. Haven't listened to that kind of music in a really long time. Enjoy!
Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/3aNrlIMGM8YbwllUrKkYBr

Neon

Finally a new set of rolls. More weird, gorgeous pictures to chooce from. But I do have to get a grip now, there were too many out-of-focus, half cropped and overexposed images. Sometimes is fun anyway, sometimes not...
Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/4FD5AyGcow3I52hVM4iOjQ

Style

A cool girl, stylish, smart and funny. I'm just gonna let this picture speak for itself. And ofcourse a soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/7jtCrCDmLAd8F56EwzQ52i

Fuzzy

A day late updating the blog. Sorry about that. My short vacation has come to an end. Monday I'll be back at work. Maybe I don't miss the commuting but I miss my friends at work. This time the soundtrack is a complete album by one single artist. Just because he's worth it: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/43XjlCVaVFhlzvkrr5M2nU

B

B as in BILLY bookshelf, B as in Blues, B as in barracuda. B is a great letter, the second one in the alphabet but the first one with some good curves.

HungOver

So today I've got a hangover... I totally deserve it. Too many Cosmopolitans, fabulous friends and my favourite high heels, it could only go one way! As the french say: Non, je ne regrette rien.

Darling V's parental units just came over from the States for a visit. It must be hard to have your family so far away.

OverTheTop

I think this picture is of my own forehead. I flashed myself in the eye, trying to demonstrate how my camera works. Now I know how it feels...

Whispers

In Sweden we have a saying that goes something like "the one who whispers, lies" (den som viskar, han ljuger). In some cases thats true, sometimes you just want your friend to notice that hot little thing in the corner :)

OneWeek

Just one more week left before the much awaited vacation. Then I'll be joining the masses laying in the park, soaking up the sun.

Dark

From light to dark... A white mask sure is a scary thing. Scary in the way that you're not at all able to read a person's face...
Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/418KF1s02op4N2w7hWvaLX

LittleSwallow

I don't know what to say... this picture kind of speaks for itself. The soundtrack for this picture contains some of Iris's favorite tunes to dance to. Although I absolutely adore her right now, I can't wait to see what she's like when she grows up.
Soundtrack: http://open.spotify.com/user/annahawk/playlist/64x1G6hRF95TkIw7Gu0rVn

Solitude

I know it's summer and you probably should to be outside in the sun but sometimes you might just feel like staying inside, rolling down the blinds and listening to some music. Maybe reading a good book. And thats perfectly ok!

HangingAround

And what better to do a warm summer evening? You hang around... just chillin'...
