about

i’ve been photographing “forever”, started doing b/w late 80’s and bought my first slr camera, a minolta 5000. looking back over the years there is a thread in my photography, i’ve since the first shutter release been into forms, lines, geometry and reflections. composition and message much more than technology. over the years i have luckily evolved, learned and hopefully improved a bit. from early on i blended my interest in music with photography and brought my camera to concerts. this led to street photography and an increased interest in pictures of people, faces and the joy of every day life. meeting my now wife meant getting a speaking and discussing partner on a daily basis, and a significant increase of activity. and nowadays we also do business out of photography, our professional webpage is found at http//:vingerelliotfotografi.com, it’s in swedish since that’s where we’re active, but feel free to take a look – pictures are not limited by language!

i like to think there is more to things than what you see, the inside is bigger than the outside. these pictures are my interpretation of what i see, or maybe just how i’m able to reproduce my interpretation.

you need more than eyes to see, you need vision.

        Hi Susan,

        Thank you so much for thinking of my blog for this nomination, I really appreciate it. However I “don’t do” blog awards and respectfully decline your nomination. I hope you understand, and that you come back to my blog for the photos anyway. 🙂

        Again, thanks for your thought and hope to see you again!

        All the best,
        Martin

    Hello….I am one of your avid admirers/followers. I would like to know if you would mind my putting a link to your blog (in my side bar along with others I admire) – similar to your community – only different in appearance. And if interested in my blog I would certainly be open to being included in your community where it can certainly generate more traffic for us both.
    Regards….Debby “thephotoseye”

      Hi Debby! I would definitely be honored if you would link to my blog. 🙂
      When it comes to my community I have the setting to include “lots”, but I can’t choose which are on my front page and as far as I have seen they change randomly. I do appreciate your pictures, and visit regularly your blog to look and get inspired. At this stage I just don’t know how/if I can have you always in the community list over here.
      All the best // martin

        Hello Martin,

        Thanks and all done! The idea is to link varied artists – sort of my own community not controlled by WordPress. I know of another photo blogger who is interested in doing the same and will pass your link on to her – as she might want to post your link as well.
        Thanks again….love your photos!
