Imagine an old wooden hen house, charmingly rustic, nestled under some maple trees with the sounds of running water and a gentle cooling breeze. Then imagine a father, a wife and a baby, and the idea of building a home right there based on the remains of the hen house.
I was born in the country - eastern Norway. While my family on my mothers side were all laestadians (a fundamental religious sect primarily based in the northern part of Norway), my father derives from several generations of corn farmers. I spent my childhood on my grandparent's farm and, yes, in a converted hen house. This little cottage housed my family of five. Today I find this quite amusing. There was a big barn built on a tall wall made of granite, but no animals. Or, there might have been a cow there once - and then rabbits...a lot of rabbits!

I try to express the rhythmic presence of duality in life: good vs. evil; the beautiful vs. the ugly; the sacred vs. the profane; or, put another way, body vs. spirit. I try to capture both a sense of finality and endlessness.
Pleased to announce the completion of the HAMPI-Chapter with new photos and a video by Tabaiba.
"Completely spaced I went through the temples and their surroundings and the luminous eyes of a small scull were looking at me once again. I knew him from Goa and this time he appeared as a pirate.
…and I realized that this wasn’t a demon but a demonfright who was there to protect me."
Hello dear sweet friend,
I wish you a wonderful and blessed Sunday. What are you doing today?
I listen to music since a few hours, I love it....:D
Hugs and much Love

The rogue professor entered the basement at thirteen hundred hours. The walls were coated with a mat black rubber. They absorbed the deep blue lighting shining from multiple lamps placed around the room. There appeared to be a large group1 of individuals standing in a grid formation. They were static. Casting steady shadows upon the floor on which they stood. The professor mingled through them. Observing each one with scrutiny. Then, rubbing the stubbles on his head he clearly voiced for the lights to rise to medium exposure. A slight hum filled to room as the human features of all present became more obvious in the rising clarity.
"A great soul and noble heart always scorns your type. I am a noblewoman, who is used to ceremony, and I know how to make myself attended to. Go, talk to that ungrateful man, you will tell him that I am faithful. But he does not merit forgiveness. Yes, I want to take revenge."
(Mozart's arias often contain moments of genuine emotion, including anger and scorn.)
All my best, michael
