I held a lecture in Copenhagen yesterday for such a friendly and nice crowd that
it touched me.
Me my self and I
I spoke about a lot of things but I guess I missed much of what I wanted to say
anyway. What I did say, was for example a bit about my background. About me
taking hundreds and hundreds photos of myself when I was younger. Trying to
figure out who I was and who I wanted to be. And how the pictures themselves
led my focus over to another thing in the end - pictures.
You, 70 000
I also talked about how greatful and amazed I am about how you, over 70 000 (!)
people a month, are peeping in to my world here and there. And that you obviously
find some of my picture world interesting.
Directing
I talked about my ambivalence, and facination about using kids in commercial contexts.
About jobs I've done. How I have directed the picture world of myself, and how I still
do - and how much I enjoy it.
What I also said was that I prefer blogs with a lot of pictures, and less text.
Thanks again Lisa, Laura & Denis!
And thank you sweet crowd who came, listen to me and made me feel comfortable
in the roll as myself.

Another thing I talked about is how positive and nice this blog sphere is, and how good it can make you feel as a human. Big words, but I it's true.

Elisabeth, yours was one of the first blogs I ever discovered three years ago, and one that inspired me to take the plunge into the world of blogging. Thank you. You truly are an inspiration. Your photographs are amazing.

A very nice post.
oh & 70 000 WOW, glad to be one of them!
gött tjejen visste tt du skulle fixa biffen! Du är så bra.
I'm not planning to come back in the nearest future, but maybe I'm holding another lecture in Gothenburg further on :)
70 000 hits on your page, that is something, congratulations! You deserve the attention.
It is interesting what you say about you taking pictures of yourself to find out who you were, it is like you wanted to see a real of you, no matter what you have to encounter. I think it is mature way to get to know oneself. (I, for example, would have never been so brave, and I had a similar desire when I was younger, too)
Very nice too meet you Elisbeth and thanks a lot for telling about your work and yourself :) Keep on going.
I will deffently let you know when I start my own blog, I did this so far, which you might have seen... avantGarden-avantGarden.blogspot.com
all the best
