GamlaStan, my favourite place in Stockholm: at dawn, when I cross it to get to the T station and no one's still around in the chilled alleys and late at night, when I can spend my spare seconds walking up and down in those less frequented, wishing to regain confidence with myself.
Stadens larm kommer en bit bort härinne på gården. Mjuk-ljuset smyger från takåsarna, högtidligt ner efter väggarna. Akustiken och ljuden med den...kanske duvorna eller samtal från öppet fönster, blir synligt där han liksom lyssnar med blicken upp emot ljuset. Very Nice Bengt ../paa
I like this, it looks like the still of an old film. The lines on the right handside of the image nicely compensate for the man. Reminds me of watching Kaurismaki in black and white.
