Boston marked the second anniversary of the 2013 marathon bombings on Wednesday, April 15 with a solemn remembrance that included a moment of silence, the pealing of church bells and a call for kindness.

These two are without any doubt my favourite subjects in Frognerpaken. They are just so touchingly human. These two strike a deep seated chord in me. I have many shots of these two dating back to the mid eighties. I’ve tried to capture  what they mean to me ,and I fall short each time They don’t age,which means I’ve got plenty of chances yet,and they are always fun to meet again.

If you get to meet them Say hello for me ;0)

Signs of Spring

Signs of Spring

SS 1/60 f 5.6 ISO 400

Signs of Spring was shot in diffused light in between rain showers; April showers bring May flowers. I used a shallow depth of field to achieve a more abstract composition.

Can you guess what the rain drops fell on?  I’ll give you a hint – they are some of the first signs of Spring on the North East Coast and provide much needed color to dull, early Spring landscapes.
