IKEA magic and music with Vomito Negro

New boxes from Ikea "Tjena" they finally have the boxes in black. When I bought them before, they were in baby blue (50´s feeling).

And my new black notebook "Svärtan" that will be my most secret notebook ever. Where I collect all the ready photos and notes for my own book.





The perfect box for camera lenses

Kinax II and music with The Skatalites

My new French camera Kinax II. It´s beautiful but I have been fooled again (by a man named Kent who sold the camera online) Shutter does not work but will see if I can manage to fix it myself.

The Kinax II is a folding camera for 620 roll film, made by Kinax in Paris from 1946 to 1950.

It is a folder with a self-erecting bellows that allows no lens movements. The one shown at the right has a Berthiot Flor 1:4.5 F=105mm lens and an IPO shutter with self-timer, with speeds 1, 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/150 and 1/350 sec.

The lens is focusable from 1.75 m to infinity by turning the front lens element.

Brunos Bildverkstad - Stockholms best photography store and music with Kite

Brunos Bildverkstad is Stockholms best photography store for everyone that is shooting with analog cameras. They have lots of film and cool things you need and of course, very nice staff. Last week I was here and bought cotton gloves so I'm not ruining my negatives.

And I will start to develop all my film here in their photo lab. The store is located in the old town and the place for us that love using film.




This is some old neg, from some concert 15-25 years ago and dont even know what band until i scan.

New negative ringbinder and music with Severe Illusion

New negative ringbinder for the project "magic". To have all the neg organised from the start is everything to me (i'm a control freak).






Cheap logbooks from Lagerhaus, perfect to write down ideas and keep in your camera bag and candy for extra energy.


There is something special about a new calendar, new year and new hope
2017 will be super!

My camera collection and music with Gary Jules

Inventory of my camera collection. I sold off large parts of my collection so today I took out all to see what I have left and most of them are tested and ready to use.
I´m happy, so many fine cameras left and now I can start to just look new one on the flea markets and auctions so I have enough for my exhibition 2018.










and then it was time for the boxes again.
