dancing in the moonlight

its been a strange week of my life this week…

love seems to surround me everywhere I look, in every song, every moment, everything I read…

I hope whoever wrote this, had the feeling of ‘gong endir’ by sigur ros in their heart.. passed this spot two hours later, and its already painted over… sometimes the most simple words and graffiti can look so beautiful to me.. I find it special to know that someone somewhere loves someone so much, they cant resist sharing it with the world… just hope that love isnt erased so quickly…

met with the beautiful michael (mi4) for a few hours in london… got the feeling he’s really a special guy…

found some rolls in the back of my cupboard that I missed developing, all exposed incorrectly because my light meter was off, like the contrast that came out in the images though. decided to develop slightly longer on my next rolls.

this guy fell asleep in the photography section of borders, the cheek…

met with my nanna for the first time in almost a year since I moved to london, we visited one of her friends who told me she took a photo in her garden with an angel in the frame… I tried…. feels quite supernatural, but think its really nothing.
