Photos. The weird ones.....

Sleep Party People photos

Actually I have a lot to post.... so maybe I´m going to be a bit hyper active the next couple of days?

I went to a concert with Sleep Party People in Little Vega, Copenhagen last saturday. It was really great, just a little short, so I´ll look forward to the time when they have a bigger pile of songs to perform.

I normally don´t take photos at concerts. I have a friend, Lars Dela, that does that very well instead, but he was busy somewhere else that night, so I decided to give it a try. Also because Sleep Party People always perform disguised as rabbits, and I wanted photos of that.
 
I have no idea of what settings to use in my camera, so I experimented a bit. And it turned out that the only thing working was something called night snap shot, so I ended up with only 3 photos that worked (and one of them needed a little help in photo editing from Janis Sawyer, thanks).

But I´m pretty proud of those 3 shots, so here they are (I even uploaded them on Gaffa Photo Award after they called for more female photographers, but I don´t have high expectations on that though):

Myartspace likes me:-)

Well, I know that you are not supposed to bragg about your self - and especially not when you´re danish! Then you are supposed to say: "Oh, don´t think about me, I don´t matter that much, so meny people matter much more that I do, I certainly don´t deserve this...".

But I decided to bragg a little about myself... I`ve had a profile on Myartspace for a couple of years, I think. To be honest I haven´t been going there much lately, but yesterday I decided to upload some new work, called Educational Plates, into a gallery.

And today I got a mail from Catherine McCormack-Skiba, Founder and Chief Creative Officer at Myartspace, that informed me that my uploaded work have been choosen for the "front page media window, which shows interesting work from selective artists". And she sent me some statistic that stated that about 5 % of uploaded art on Myartspace gets choosen to be featured.

Actually this is the second time I get choosen to be featured. Last time - which was when I originally created my profile there - I got choosen to be featured artist.

So yes, I am proud of myself today. I´m not excatley having a hard time dealing with all the overwhelming recognision I receive in the art world, if you know what I mean;-)

And I decided to share my pride with you.:-)

Now I´ll have a glass of wine.

Photography in Seaside

So I have been taking up photography while being in Seaside since it is such a unique town. Here are some of the photographs I took. I hope you'll like them:
