Something different for a change, seen on another website. (https://blog.tape.tv/2012/11/konzert-fotografiethe-moment-after-the-show/)


Ever wondered what artists look like after their shows? Swiss photographer Matthias Willi answers these questions in his new album/book The Moment after the show with pics of some well-known faces that sometimes really look worn out. Except for Kid Rock, of course. :) You can find some of them on his website -  the other pictures there are also something to check out: http://www.matthiaswilli.ch/photography.html. I hope your browser doesn't start acting crazy after you had a look at the photographs - mine does! So I'm off...enjoy!

It's about time I posted something, but again it's not music related. A while back a Denish friend of mine shared a link that I found intriguing: A photo project by a graduate of the Denish academy for journalism, Astrid Dalum, titled 'Jeg er kvinde', which translates as 'I am woman'. She has been awarded the Scanpic prize and rightly so. Even without text, the photos showing women of all ages and shapes get their message across - it's about women and their relation to their bodies.The black and white pics capture the women in a very individual, touching way. And the bodies we're speaking of here are not your usual magazine pictures. Just have a look and see for yourself. It certainly left a lasting impression on me...

And if you happen to be able to translate or decipher some Denish, you will find that the accompanying texts also have a story to tell.

As announced, something else: It's still not the Frank Turner feature which I haven't gotten round to just yet, but as usual, FT has written some lyrics that fit today's entry: I face the horizon everywhere that I go - I face the horizon, the horizon is my home (the road)

Being somewhat stuck here with my job, I don't get to travel as much as I'd like to, but I have just come across a beautiful homepage that soothes some of that longing.
veoelmundo means 'I see the world' in Spanish and shows fantastic travel photos, one picture a day, and I really like the idea of getting a glimpse of faraway places once a day. Also, the pictures are really good, as far as I can tell. Today, it'S Morocco, and the vibrant colours make me look forward to Istanbul in May. I admire people who have the guts to start something new, like the guy who started the website and apparently left his job as a lawyer in Australia to spend his time travelling and taking pictures. So...It's not all about music!
