I hide to cry
because no one really cares anyway
and is this pain even real
it really doesn't matter
and no one really cares anyway

Just some silly photo of me and my cousin, Bergþóra.
I miss her!
So, that's for her. And me. It makes me smile, we had so much fun :)
We were gonna take some portrait photos for her of us together before she headed home to Danmark, but then we ended up doing all kinds of things that we used to do when we were little, and photographing it too!
This is just one of those photos, there hide'n'seeking :)
Hope it can also make you smile ^^

Ok, so I know that no-body looks at anything I put on flickr.
I guess I just have to get over that and accept that I'm just talking to no-one... :)
This is my first attempt at cloning pictures of myself, and I've got to say, I'm quite pleased with it.
Inspired by MissAniela and Imogen Heap's 'Hide and Seek'.
(Note: Imogen Heap's song is incredible, and at the same time of taking this photo, I came up with a cover of it, which you can see a little snippet of here, or you can dive in at the deep end, take a little risk and watch the whole thing here)!
I was lucky enough to be working at Blenheim Palace at the end of the week. I decided to get up ridiculously early on Good Friday.... because that's the kind of thing i do and head out with the camera to make the most of the estate. Sunrise was at 6:30 so i gave myself an hour to scope the place out and find out where to go.
It was freezing cold with a reel good ground frost over night. I stuck it out for a couple of hours and then had to call it quits in need of a full english breakfast. On my route back i walked along the lake and i noticed this chap out of the corner of my eye. He was basically walking side by side with me but in stealth mode. He would duck his head right down while walking and then stop for a cheeky peek. I managed to find a clear spot in the reeds with some sunlight and he luckily obliged in sticking up for this shot.
Another one from the moonlight series. Moonlight plays hide-n-seek with my 50mm in this 30s exposure shot.
I encounter this a lot as a photographer, I find it interesting maybe through some kind of masochistic desire to be hunted and pummelled, but mainly because these people, through avoiding a portrait of image, give a portrait of punkrock.

An interesting story for this piece and the shirt:
I had been in love with quill work since the 1960's and by late 80's took a keen interest in fine quality contemporary work. I was thrilled in 1990 when at the Santa Fe Indian Market (in August), I saw these two pieces by Gregg Bourland, a Sioux Indian who became tribal chairman of the Cheyenne River reservation. Even before they were judged to be best of show (for robe) and best of garment (for shirt), I knew I had to have them. I stood first in line in the dark and when booth opened I negotiated a price for the two pieces and just as I said I'll take them, the dealer's partner on the phone asked are they sold - dealer said yes and his partner walked over and said that was Robert Redford's agent on the phone to say he wanted them. Lucky me!
Toddler playing hide and seek but was able to snap a photo in between the pillows she was hiding under
