Today Majorstua is packed with people. The main street is closed for traffic, and a plethora of stalls with all kinds of clothes, art, food and antiques demand attentions from your senses with new sights, sounds and scents. My son and I was enjoying a coffee at @kaffebrenneriet Valkyrien, when this guy sat down next to us with a camera. So naturally I asked to take his portrait. Say hi to Tom Rainer, @rainishow

I met Keidi and Elisabetta at a very cosy beer-garden next to the Saint Nicholas Moldovian Church.

Keidi shot this portrait of me. I linke he likes my camera :)

On the Millenium bridge I ran in to Lukynz was quickly passing through London doing some photography on his spare time.

As I was fetching myself a cup of coffee before heading down to the market at Vestkantrorget, this very well dress gentleman stepped into the shop. I had to ask for a portrait, and he obliged. Thanks Martin!

While I was sitting on a bench at Vestkanttorget, just taking in the hustle and bustle of the Saturday antique market, this very pleasant lady sat down beside me. We chattet for a bit, and it turned out her grand parents lived in my home town of Mo i Rana around the year 1900! They worked at a hotel there that is still one of the nice ones in the my home town. Crazy coincidence.

When I shot the portrait of Martin in the coffee shop, he told me he and his friend would be coming down to the market. We met there and we talked about portrait photography, lighting and lenses. Street portrait photography is a wonderful way to meet new people.

Back at my bench, two ladies sitting there started chatting right away. Possibly impressed by my big camera. I don't know. Anyway. They both used to be teachers as a school near my home town where many of my relatives studied back in the day! Crazy coincidence.

Brit, Guri and I had a nice long conversation about everything from the weather in the north, to vanilla, to how nice it is to live on Majorstua.

The main university building in Oslo is a great place to look for portraits. Destiny was sitting on a bench in front of the building and was happy to let me take a few pictures.
