Until 6.09.2010. Find out more abut him here.

Sometimes things with commissions turn out so awkwardly. Every time I ask myself what have I done wrong. Mostly there is no clear answer, I think I have  always tried to give my best.

The old photo of A on my studio desk just makes me smile, always.

Frida Maria by Margo Maria Weijer & Frieda Mellema(Rotterdam, Holland). I like their work very much.

I got the book “Ware Iri Ware Ni Iru” by photographer Annelies Štrba on 1997. I participated in the workshop of Bernhard Schobinger(I briefly wrote about it here) in Antwerp and among his own beautiful books he had few books of her wife. I purchased the book and year after year I am falling more and more in love with her images. She mostly takes photos of people around her – family, friends and many simple daily life treasures.

My family is in Hungary and I miss them.

“Man’s work determines the face and name of the country and soil, in which his roots are embedded.”

Beautiful photo album including images of mines, workers, engineers and their families, how they lived, worked and how they spent their free time. What a fiction…

Book by Samuil Migdal, graphic design Ülo Habicht. Published on 1968, Tallinn.

I hope it will bring lots of joy, good time with friends, colleagues and family and good surprises to all of us!

I like photographs of Juliane Eirich

Today was the opening of Dénes Farkas photography exhibition in the Bank of Estonia. As he says “slight retrospective”.

The show will remain open until March 2010. Don’ t forget to take your ID along while planning to visit the show.

I am forced to be quiet, as I am still prisoned at home and very slowly covering from the horrible infection, when most wonderful things are happening outside.

Like on Wednesday Marije Vogelzang lecture in the Academy of Art and on Thursday Anneli Tammik had the opening of her solo exhibition “Linear” in the Hop gallery. I missed it all.

On the photos:

Bridgit Anderson, caring for the Dead: A Photographic essay on the funeral profession. Still on in The Finnish Museum of Photography.

Bridgit Anderson (b.1962) is a photographer from New Zealand, whose work is now being shown in Finland for the first time.

Working, working, working. Less and less time. Always in the hurry. Trying to find my way out from this jungle.

This photo is taken on 3.10.2009, at the Stroomi Beach, Tallinn. It was really windy, cold and sunny, but just for a moment before an other massive rain attack.

Diana sent me today crazy link: Alex Hedin amazing photos of awfully beautiful rooms with their inhabitants.

And an other one: russian poets of silver era Why do I have so little time to read?

Thank you Diana!
