Some lifestyle shit...

Was that title inappropriate? I tried to think of something witty and smart that would lighten up everyones Monday, but then I realised I'm really not feeling very witty right now, nor do I have the time, so many projects running simultaneously now that Im actually stressing to deliver images to people, bollocks. As much as I love the system I'm running now ( Lightroom 3.5, EOS Digital, Mountain Lion, etc...) Java and Flash are giving me so much shit right now. I need to pay my retoucher to get back a set of images I need so I can send them to the client, but I cant pay him because I cant login to my bank because the login is powered by Java. New plugins please Apple!!! This is slowing the whole production line down as I cant send him more images to retouch before I have paid hime for the last batch. More bollocks.

On my way to Kristiansand now, sitting at the rectum of all airports, Oslo Gardemoen. God have mercy. Looking forward to what I can imagine to be a week filled with good weather, good vibes, filthy humor and the occasional bit of work.

I could actually be sent to Auschwitz for two weeks and not care right now, after the weekend, Im just fizzing with energy and good vibes. Been a while since I've had so much fun with my buddies. Ok, on second thought, Auschwitz would be a pretty shitty place to be sent, especially on a Monday. Here are some "lifestyle" shots from the weekend. I usually refrain taking a DSLR out just to shoot snapshits, but Its been a while since I shot my 7D and 8mm fisheye, but I really love WIIIIIIIDE shots, so I can see myself holding onto the 7D for a while longer just to play with it.

In other news, Moods of Norway are stirring up a fuss. I read in the paper they are expecting a local modelling agency in Oslo to deliver models for Oslo Fashion Week for free. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING?! This is precisely what I was on about last night. I dont know the in's and out's of the entire story, so I dont what to jump down the throat of a group without knowing the facts, but I can say this: Moods of Norway is making money, some where in the region of 271 Million NOK last year. And they are cutting costs and expecting the industry to give them freebies. Get real. Im not hopping on the bandwagon here or trying to start a boycott, but really? I think they are a very talented group of designers, that make some really cool swag, but I dont support them because its not my style of clothing. Thats a taste thing. Anyway, here are some shots from yesterday, Hopefully I can get some of the cool skating shots done later this week, take it easy, N.

Chill time in the sun.
