I’m a friend of brash aggravation, so here’s finland, folks.
After we called the police since no one else seemed to care, he became alert, rised up, shouted “Fuck!” and tried to strike me with his bottle of booze.
But then he fell again.
And the bottle was plastic anyway.
Don’t I just love these assignments: “Konsta, there’s this dance spectacle going on in Kuopio Musiikkikeskus. Just stay there, shoot whatever you want. You’ll get a page.”
I feel I’m at my best when I get to just shoot what I want. Then again who isn’t?
Let’s just say some work environments have more intense atmosphere than others. I got a chance to visit Allseas Solitaire, the biggest pipe lay vessel in the world when it was laying a gas pipe to the Baltic sea between Finland and Estonia. It was crazy. A huge, working factory inside a customized ex-tanker, over 20 nationalities, a basketball field, a gym, endless rooms with strange lighting and countless opportunities to lose your life if you don’t follow the safety instructions. This is just a tip of the iceberg (no pun intended), and some more images were published in Helsingin Sanomat last week.
