This two weeks I have captured a lot of pictures, both street photography, but also nature in the town. It´s fantastic, it is good to walk for half an hour in the middle of the day, and it is fun to take all the pictures. I try to catch some moods. Capture the situation in the right moment, and that is very difficult. Sometimes I think I made it, but most of the pictures are garbage. Lightroom is an excellent program to organize and delete the images that are garbage. I think it also is difficult to choose the photo for this blog, and I have decided that only 3 to 8 pictures in every blog post. This time I split into three sections, one with street photography, one with street portraits, and one with urban nature.
Street photography
I like this picture because of the smile on her face. And the guest she is doing with her hand. I also smile when I look at this picture. The mood is happy.
I was fascinated by the two blue boxes with the graffiti in front of the cemetery when this old lady came walking straight into my frame. She didn´t mention me, and she was so concentrated to walk. I liked the mood that creates when she walked straight into the picture.
This tree gays sitting around the table and smiling seem to have a great afternoon together. They smile, and I feel happy when I look at them. It´s a picture that makes me happy. Maybe you also be happy when you look at this picture?
Streetsportrait
To ask unknown people for a portrait is very difficult. But sometimes I do it, then on impulse. This tree pictures under are portraits whom each of them is a real challenge. Well, the problem for me is to ask. But all of this tree persons were very nice and polite. So why am I afraid? And why do I not ask so often? It´s just to do it.
In the park, I met a girl and her dog. I asked if I could get a portrait and if she could carry her dog. And she did. I think it is a lovely portrait.
When I walked by this exciting exhibition with the bright lady, all the colors attract me. I just had to ask for a portrait, so I did it and got this picture.
This young man standing with all the wool nests around him looked very special for me. It was a scene that I do not see every day. And I had to ask for a portrait. I got two pictures, and I think this one was the best.
Nature and landscape in the town
Autumn leaves from a chest tree. I like to look at the beautiful trees around us, in Oslo, it is many beautiful trees, this one is a chest tree, and the leaves were blowing in the wind. And it was a fantastic pattern on the leaves.
Oslo cathedral, with all the trees around.
