#75 Bella ragazza

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 26, 2009
It is strange. First you get one. Love it, unconditionally. Insanely. Then, there’s another one. You wonder, how could you possibly love that one as much. Puzzling, but the math works out. You start to love more. Then. A Saturday in late April comes along to test your hypothesis of human emotional capacity. A third [...]

#74 Blue wimp

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 23, 2009
This bird is a blue wimp. It is, according to the bird book, wimpier than other birds. And blue. However, it is a nice reminder of spring and summer. Which, they say, are around the corner.

#72 Havana

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 21, 2009
As one of the more puzzling nations I’ve visited, the old streets of Havana made me feel at home yet distanced from the stagnation and limitations. Soon there might be Benettons, gallerias and a 7-11 in every corner. Not yet though. So, go. For the rum at least. The Mulata. The Varadero. And yes, The [...]

#71 Lunch break

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 19, 2009
Some lunches I spend in solitude at the big department store. I can go up and down the escalators with almost no purpose but wasting time. And, the dog can come. Which is a good thing. I mean, since I own a dog.

#70 Refill

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 19, 2009
Wine is a beautiful thing. Simple yet elegant. And comes in a controllable range of flavors. Few beverages stir as much excitement, even when consumed visually.

#67 Lap dance

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 9, 2009
I found myself at this enormous training facility. They: top trained 16 year-olds killing lap after lap on the track, throwing javelins, crushing the 100 meters, smashing volleyballs, stretching, lifting, screaming. Me: black parka, black jeans, black Canon 5D Mk II.

#66 CTG

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 8, 2009
It’s CTG two times a week. I have no idea what it stands for. It’s a machine, hooked up to the belly. Measuring movements and heartbeats. Scribbles curves on paper. Long piece of paper patiently, quietly and gently pushing itself out of the plastic body on the side board.

#65 Heléne

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 5, 2009
Another ultra sound. A heart, a hand, a nose. A miracle.

#64 First day of spring

By Olle Nordell | Published: April 1, 2009
Suddenly spring hits you. The warm rays meander over your body, and while you pretty much could see it coming (by looking in any nearby calendar) it strikes you with total surprise. The sudden impact of liveable conditions instantly make all urban beings drop their over coats a bit too soon, and literally throw on [...]
