Well, I think it’s clear to everyone that I’m not writing much here. In fact, I’m not producing many words in general, here or otherwise. Most conversations I used to have online have gone silent, for different reasons, and the people I used to talk to at work are now all in different parts of the world, including me. Moving to a country where I only just understand the language also means that my usual quiet has become even more so, because I have to spend some extra time interpreting what is being said, and then I’m not sure if I understood correctly, or if my answer will be understood. I’ve always hated repeating myself and will rather stay silent than risk having to repeat myself in a Swedish-Danish conversation. In return, my photography seems to be taking off more, and I’m also reading a lot more about photography than I used to.
Since I still feel the need to express myself here, I’ve therefore decided to try to use my photographs as a catalyst for the words. I thought it would be suitable that the first one, above, should be from the first set of photos that I published online when I got myself an SLR camera a bit over seven years ago. When starting to play golf, there’s always that one first good shot for everyone that suddenly gets them into the game and makes them want to continue. With photography, the picture above was probably it for me.
