Summer in the City, Story of Kemi
Sunday June 27th, 2010, 17:48

Warning: This post is about feelings. Technical and more platonic stuff later next week.
First couple of weeks at Pohjolan Sanomat are now behind, but I feel like I’ve gained a year’s worth in experience. I’ve never actually worked in a newspaper as photographer before, just freelance work, and this is a whole lot of different ball game. The intensity of it all is demanding but on the other hand it keeps me alarmed. So far I’ve managed to consider every gig as an opportunity to improve myself and to seek for the best photo available. Needles to say, the perfect shot is still to occure but I’m quite glad that I haven’t rocked the bottom either. Still on the safe side, I guess.
I don’t know anyone from Kemi and it’s totally uncharted city for me. The photos in this post never appeared anywhere, they just somehow tell alot about how I feel about this place and maybe how confused but determined I am about this on going summer that I’ll spend here. This post was sort of an intro for becoming weeks: For now on, I’ll start posting intensively things I shoot at work and hopefully sometimes outside work, aswell.. Stay tuned, next post tomorrow.
