Min far er død


Idag blev jeg ringet op af Århus politi med beskeden om, at min far var fundet død i sin bolig. 
Jeg har ikke helt fattet det endnu, men da kontakten mellem far og hans fem børn har været omtrent ikke eksisterende i de seneste 15 år, så sidder jeg blot tilbage med en hul fornemmelse. Jeg har mistet min far. Punktum.

Her er et foto af min hustru Vivi, min søn Christian og min datter Camilla. Det er mit håb, at jeg vil få fornøjelsen af at væe sammen med mine børn og familie til den sidste dag i mit liv. Alt andet er sgu for meningsløst.

  1. Min kones far døde for præcis et år siden. Han var netop omgivet af sin kone og deres tre voksne børn ved hospitalssengen. De havde fuld kontakt med ham til det sidste. De holdt ham og sagde, at nu måtte han godt tage afsted. Og det gjorde han så.

    Jeg håber jeg vil dø på samme måde.

Two Paths - Day 64

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
