This will be a great day
My friends call me crazy, but don't you agree with me that finding a perfect colourcoordinated spot to park your bike is a sign that this is will be a great day?

Looking In
Why am I so compelled to glimpse into windows as I pass them by? I gain no sexual gratification from this. I am not hoping to catch some nudity in my glance upward. No. It's the quiet, mundane moments that interest me. I suppose that in some way in these quiet times there is a beautiful vulnerability about those being watched. I can arrive unannounced and take in some part of this person's private life. Maybe I can even imagine myself in their place. Do I somehow envy these people? Looking in to the windows of a home feels much like glancing into a shop window. Perhaps I am shopping for a new life.

invited photographer: Rikkard Häggbom
Before you go. Stay. A few weeks ago I recieved Rikkard Häggbom's highly interesting and beautiful photobook. The photographs were taken in Estonia. For Rikkard, the idea from the beginning, was to depict the country and its change. But after many years of work and countless trips between Sweden and Estonia another result occurred. What started as an idea to document Estonia ended up as a depiction of a cracked relationship, the photographer and his inner life.
The photographs have made a strong impression on me. The book itself consists only of photographs, no text, and the fact that Rikkard let the pictures speak for themselves feels liberating. This is a book to return to, again and again, pictures to think about; perhaps to create your own stories to. That is photography as it best.
Now I am happy to present Rikkard Häggbom as an invited photographer on the F blog. He has chosen to put together a series of photos, dedicated to his grandfather, from his book.

I think he really misses grandma since she moved out. He visits her every day after lunch, but I can see that he is lonely.

I strongly recommend Rikkard Häggbom's book Before you go. Stay (Rafaella förlag, 2008, ISBN 978-91-977475-0-9). It's possible to order the book here, here or through Rikkard himself: rikkard@rikkard.com. And check out his homepage and blog. - f skott.

Gerry Johansson is one of the most interesting photographers in contemporary Sweden and also one of the first invited photographers on the F blog. During the years we have been happy to exhibit photographs from his series Landskap (Countryside) (here), Kvidinge (here) and not the least from the fascinating photobook Sverige (Sweden) (here and here). Now I am very happy to once again present Gerry Johansson’s interesting work, this time some photographs from his new project Deutschland.

many things through few images [artemidorus - the oneirokritika]
time is contained in the space between frozen moments, it need not be linear, it need not be known like that any longer. Even as story lines are being suggested organically in cinematic terms these days, the word line is becoming irrelevant. in a photograph the past the present and the future can combine, in a series of photographsthe spaces tell stories.
its an exploration of this notion
These pictures are a continuation of Alek's Summer Solstice series. The first part of the series is here
