Morten Eriksen's "Natural Surroundings"
Morten Eriksen is a danish photographer focusing on the ordinary in his surroundings. In 2023 he released his new book “Natural Surroundings” whics is a wonderfully crafted piece of work.
"Natural Surroundings started out as a documentation of the landscape in my local surroundings. During the process, I noticed that the photographs was telling something about me. They were expressing a feeling I have had for as long as I can remember.
In April 2021 that feeling changed when my daughter was born. I suddenly felt different.I felt close to another human being"

The Wadden Sea Zine - Field Notes
Kinda late news, but the zine sold out pretty quickly, which is just so overwhelming. I want to thank everyone who purchased one. Also, a big and warm thank you to Iain from Another Place Press. Iain has been such a joy to work with, and has done a wonderful job putting this together.

Some film for fall and winter
Recently I stocked up on 35mm film. Lately I've been mostly shooting black and white, predominantly Ilford HP5, so of course I went with a few rolls of that. I feel like it's the perfect fit for every day use in my Konica Hexar AF.
I also bought a couple of rolls of Kentmere 400, I guess the more budget friendly version of HP5. Well, let's see.
Lastly I traded a defective Konica Big Mini in for some expired assorted colour and black and white rolls. Will be exciting to see how those turn out. No idea about how they’ve been stored or when they expired.
