Summer in the city. Lviv offers many different activities, but here are some examples, talking at balconies, crazy rain that transforms into heat, shadows in yards, cleaned washing hanging between the trees. Watch that summer loveliness and go to Lviv to try it out yourself.

Traces from this spring. Traces from the past. From people that was here. People that are no longer here. Traces from our present time. Traces from our nature.

As long as we never forget the traces of those who where here, plurality will succeed.

Dedicated to my friend Alex.

When Winter left us we were fast joined by Spring.

cheers with us

It took time, but spring and summer warmth came to our part of Europe. This is an exposé, starting from the first of our March-snow storms and ending two weeks ago, when we with drowsy eyes still tried to get used to the clear blue skies. It is almost hard to understand we still didn’t have fully blooming trees back then, two weeks ago. When spring comes times really do fly!


Goodbye, Winter

Now, when Winter hopefully is loosing its grip I feel safe to post some Winter memories. Let’s call it “Winter 2012/3 R.I.P – May you never come back”.

In a couple of days I will though publish some more Winter shots. The rhythm of slowness… and film developing.


I Krakow med egen lins

Som jag skrev i mars gjorde jag ett kort besök i Krakow. Bilderna är från stadsdelarna Kazimierz, Krowodrza och Nowa Huta. Jag skulle hemskt gärna vilja bo i Krakow under en längre tid. Trevlig stad… trevligt folk… trevligt land. Krakow är som Berlin borde vara (men inte är), öppet, självständigt, spännande, kreativt. En plats där varje själ kan hitta sin plats. Fördomarna om ultrareaktionära Östeuropa kommer verkligen på skam här. (Om nu ett sådant finns förutom i de – kanske ultrareaktionära – västis medias periskop perspektiv).
