Together with millions of others I’m deeply committed to my favorite game, after the latest Blizzard release. I have chosen to take a break from my pictures for a couple of weeks while I get some of the exiting storyline under my skin. This may seam like a waist of time to the outsider, but in the wow community there is no other way. Monsters await the slaughter while the many quests are completed. While dodging fireballs and progressing trough the game, I’m thinking about what my next photo project will be.
I’d like to do a picture a day for the first 24 days of December. I hope I can keep that up, as it would make me go out every day to take at least one picture. Let’s see how that turns out.
The article in the paper went great. It was beautifully done on the mid pages and really worked all together. Another clip went in my folder for later show off.
The picture above is from my city on the launch night of Wrath of the Lich King. American students were the first to get there hands on the game expansion. There were four girls who were in ecstasy and used 4-5 minutes realizing that the time had come.

With a bag of cookies in one hand and a cookie in the other this gentleman seamed to have fallen asleep in the buss beside me. I must say I felt like doing the same. Sleeping trough my alarm clock this morning and missing my appointment at the newspaper to select pictures for the second article that is to be printed tomorrow, you can say I started my day in a rather stressed fashion.
Luckily there was still time before deadline and I made it. Last time I was pleased with the result so you can say I’m anxious to see tomorrows edition, will it be just as good?
I was thinking the other day that I have to few pictures that “just” capture the moment. And too many that tries to find some special angle. Capturing the situation with a pure approach can sometimes make the point more clear… Though I would have liked if he had turned his head the other way so we could see him better.

The pictures have been taken down from the walls of the World Culture Center. I’m going by today to pick up the pictures. I think I will hang some up on my own walls to treat my guests to something else then white walls.
A really nice mid page have been printed in Dagbladet Arbejderen, with the essay and 4 of the pictures. The written part behind it served to be printed and I’m really happy with the result. This is my first written piece so it was a delight to see it in print. The next two article is being worked on. Pictures needs to be selected and the last things looked over, so There will be enough to look after in the last few days.
Returning Home is to be found here ‘Returning Home‘. I would be grateful for comments on it as I have spend a lot of time getting it done.
On another note I’m in between jobs right now. Meaning that I have stopped my previus job and is soon to start on another that will bring my hours down a good portion, so I will have even more time doing my photography. This will result in less new cloth and expensive food and more of what I need to focus on. I’m confidant that this is the right thing for me right now. I picked a job that was really easy to find, within my educated field that is working as a chef in a kitchen. I promise to give you the full story on a future post about how a chef gets into photography.
The picture above is from last weeks riot in Copenhagen. Teargas fills the street.
