polejam of death with fiiiiireeeeee!!! (well kind of)
So here´s the situation. Alot of awesome snow, a boring night with nothing to do. Hmm, lets hook up with some friends and do a ”polejam of death with fiiiiireeeeee!!!” This great idea comes from Anton Gunnarsson, an überskilled snowboarder! But because I suck at snowboarding, the best way was to use a snowracer. Find a nice spot to shoot at, don´t care about if the fire will attract the neighbours in the city, get yourself a fucking mankini and your good to go! Next time, a bigger and further hill with a higher jump will be used. This was more like a testrun, haha! Thanks Coffe and Johan for the company and all help!

Faster Pussycat @ Backstage Rockbar 100129
The good ol´ band Faster Pussycat were only booked for three shows in Sweden and of course they stopped by my beloved hometown Trollhättan! It´s funny because our local bar named Backstage Rockbar have been transformed to something like Sunset Strip, it´s just awesome! And it´s just getting better, up next is Paul Di’anno, Bonafide and Mama Kin. The support for Faster Pussycat this evening were Dirty Passion and no less then Enuff Z´nuff! It was a night filled with ass kickin music and alot of crazy party people! Just lovely. Thanks to Mich who transported me through the crowd and got me backstage to enjoy the show and get myself some great photos of the band! It´s the second time I shoot a live band but like I said the first time I did it, It´s fun like hell! I hope to see them here again, just frickin awesome!

Self Portrait, Again!
Yo fuckers! No, just kidding. Hi all! Just some self portraits this time. Wanted to create a kind of High Key effect on this one. Some overexposure and converting to black & grey in lightroom. Turned out pretty cool I think. And a funny story about the the pictures where I´m eating a raw egg. I went down to the fridge to get me an egg, grabbed the first one I saw and then ran back to the ”studio” to get som pictures. I grabbed the remotecontrol in my hand and put the egg in my mouth. First some shoots with the egg in my mouth and then I begun to bite harder to crush it. Suddenly, the shell cracks but no egg-white in my mouth, I was like, ehh, what now? I guessed that I did´nt bite hard enough so I pushed my teeth together but still no ”goo”. Well, this was interesting so i spit it out and then I saw what the problem was. Earlier this day my dad boiled some egss but didn´t eat all of them, haha! Very surprising though.
Well anyway, CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE PICTURES!
Get me my models please! Buy them a goddamn flight ticket and bring ‘em to me!
Comic
This could happen at a club near you.
This was just stupid. Haha. More serious pictures are coming later this evening. Stay tuned!
Musikslaget Trollhättan 2009
Was over at an event called Musikslaget. It´s a competition for the unsigned, local bands from Trollhättan. I thought it was a good idea to practice photography at concerts. Well, I never tried it before but it was really fun but quite difficult, I got a long way to go. Haha! I used my 35mm 1,8 lens together with my SB-800 flash. Not the optimal lens for this, next time I bring at least my 50mm 1,8. But I really need something like 85mm.
To bad I only got photos of the bands Innocent Fall and Trigger. The third band in the final was Wasteland and the well deserved winners was no else than Pluskompis!
But like I said. This was really fuckin funny. Why haven´t I tried this before. I usually just headbanging around at concerts, lol!
Partey? No, ok.
What a slam! No just kidding. But I met a hamster, that´s something. And a good old friend of mine that I haven´t met in a couple of years, I enjoyed it!
Of course I´m a geek, so blow me.
To bad that I was just a visitor at this years Dreamhack. But at least I got some photos. But it sucks that we didn´t visit on the friday instead. Yeah yeah, whatever.

Just a little story
I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart.
FOR EXAMPLE: One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed.
Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says ”I don’t feel like it, I just want you to hold me.”
I said ”WHAT??!! What was that?!”
So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear… ”You’re just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man.” She responded to my puzzled look by saying, ”Can’t you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?”
Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep.
The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on several different very expensive outfits. She couldn’t decide which one to take so I told her we’d just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes, so I said lets get a pair for each outfit. We went onto the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you…she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn’t even know how to play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I said, ”That’s fine, honey.” She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement. Smiling with excited anticipation she finally said, ”I think this is all
dear, let’s go to the cashier.”
I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, ”No honey, I don’t feel like it.”
Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled ”WHAT?”
I then said ”honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You’re just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman.” And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added, ”Why can’t you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy you?”
Apparently I’m not having sex tonight either….but at least that bitch knows I’m smarter than her.
No, I´m not the author.
Homemade icecream with cinnamon
Time for the best icecream recipe ever! Or should I say iceDream? All cred to ASPA Herrgård!
1. First off, the ingredients.
8 egg yolks.
1 litre cream.
200g granulated sugar.
1 cinnamon stick.
And yeah, you need an icecreammachine.
2. Whisk the eggyolks with the sugar to a porous mixture.
3. Boil the cream together with the cinnamon stick. I recommend to use two sticks if you want more taste. Don´t forget to cut the stick open and scratch the inside of it before you put it in the cream. More taste that way.
4. As soon the cream is boiling, turn of the heat and pour it in the eggmixture. Be sure that it´s NOT boiling when you pour it down.
5. Now, let the mixture cooldown for a while before you put it in ypur icecreammachine. Actually, I don´t think that you need a machine, so if you don´t have one, just put the mixture in the fridge. I guess that it should work. Let the machine on for about 20 minutes or so, that worked for me. Then pour the mixture in a box and put it in the fridge. After a while, you got icecream! Tada!
Serve with homemade lingonberry jam. Fucking lovely!
So long suckers!
