Spring so far...
Lot's of fixing old machines, getting things done, having the back of good people and community, enjoying a city in bloom and in transition, producing a big live show and having shoots outside, being in nature with the company of animal friends and holding space for whatever comes.

The world is a heavy place, but enjoy the light and keep on documenting and creating.
It is the first of May today, happy Beltane.
We are midway between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice.

Take care <3

Beautiful sheep from the little pueblo Estorninos, from my February trip to Spain. Who doesn't like a first or last half burned shot on a roll of film?

First post of the year is Mr. Cash on a sunny Winter day in the roundpen. The most handsome boy, that always keeps up with my photo side quests and holds patiently still.
A little happy accident on film, from my Zeiss Contessa on 35mm APX. The film got double exposed partly, I was really excited when I saw the outcome. 🐎✨

Some thoughts on 2025...

This year was a rough one for many,
we all feel a big shift and the world crumbling around us. Politics, capitalism and systems of abuse trying to keep us small and weak, the current world is a scary place.

But we came this far and I think everyone can give themselves a clap on the shoulder. I had some major shifts and made some changes this year, but I am proud how far I come and what I accomplished. I became stronger mentally and physically and became probably the most comfortable and self-confident I ever was. What does not mean that my anxious a*s does not fight it’s battles, but overall I decided to not pause and keep on moving forward. I can’t see any progress without movement and I wanna be braver and open for what 2026 holds.

But all of this wouldn’t have been possible with all (yeah get ready for the cheesy part, but I really mean it) the incredible people around me, all the people that trusted me with jobs and projects and put their faith in me.
All the people that I hold close and can call friends and family, thank you.

Without you, I wouldn’t be where I am now.

Thank you all for coming along on this ride. Wear your helmet and put your seatbelt on for another round in 2026. Ride safe, keep your eyes open and trust your guts!

PS: Fuck AI, take pictures, create art, write music, form connections, explore more and build things!

Lot's of ♥️
