Eldsjäl – Vad brinner du för? | A reportage

So, for a few weeks I’ve been following some “firesouls” in Gothenburg, as a part of a school assignment, and I’ve done a reportage of them. The assignment was to

visit them at least three times, and to present seven pictures. Only 7! That was so hard, due to the fact that they juggle and stuff, I had to take pictures really fast, and a lot of them, if I wanted to get their equipment in the pictures as well.
I’ve gotten to know some amazing people, and I’ve seen really great stuff being performed with poi, cones and of course fire! I’ve also started to do poi myself, so I will keep coming every thursday, both to practice and hang out with them, and I’ll also continue photographing and later even filming them. So one day this might be a really big reportage or something, and maybe I’ll be perfoming with fire as well one day ;) One can only wait and see.

Wer did the presentation for a photographer at our newspaper here in Gothenburg, named Lisa Thanner, and their picture editor. It was nervous and exciting at the same time – but it all went well. It was also very fun to see everybody else’s reportage’s, they were all very interesting and great!

Afterwards, we had some gingerbread and mulled wine and such, and now it’s holiday, woo!

Any who, here are the seven pictures I chose to present in school yesterday, I’ll show you more pictures later on.

What I’m up to today

I am sipping a lot of coffee while editing and choosing pictures for the reportage assignment we have in school. I’ve followed a group for a few weeks now, but we are only to present seven pictures (SEVEN!?) to a photographer and a picture editor on a huge lokal newspaper here in Gothenburg (and Sweden to actually), so it’s pretty serious and you want to make it as good as possible.
