Swedish impressions - the last batch

This is the last batch of photos from Sweden, I am back in Italy but have had to dive headlong into work both in Milan and in my own studio so even though I have lots of new ideas for recipes and lots of new props, it will have to wait a bit before I manage to finish the jobs so I thought to share a few photos from Stockholm with surroundings.

Don't give up on me, I will be back again...

Swedish impressions part 2

I have been to Stockholm to meet my childhood friend and we spent a fine afternoon talking and walking through the city and at the end I even remembered that I actually had brought the camera with me. I tend to forget that when the company is nice, I think it is because I usually only photograph alone.

So you can forget about those photos I promised from the party in the archipelago, I took a few photos in the beginning of the birthday girl and then I was completely immersed in talking to people I haven't seen for too many years. But I try to make up for my broken promise by posting some photos from the streets in the Old Town where you hardly see any people because it seems hat everyone just walk on the main street and ignore all the incredible places that you see if you just take a step up onto the narrow streets leading away from it.

How to use a park

So we are in Sweden now and it feels good, a slow life where my major occupation is to think about what we are going to eat and where the whole family do things together or just stay around talking about this and that. Although we are going to some parties too, the first is on Saturday, a big 0 birthday party of one of my dearest friends in a restaurant on a small island in the archipelago of Stockholm and I hope it wont be raining because I want to take a lot of photos to show you how beautiful it is. But until then you can look at these images from the beautiful churchyard of Uppsala; I have always had a love for churchyards since my early teens, I find them peaceful and here in Sweden they are usually full of trees and flowers which make them alive and a place of the eternal cycle of life and death.
