Keywords for what I'm doing here in Flickr-land:
- Playing with my friend, Hambox - we're having a photo exchange project just among the 2 of us. Very fun, very inspirational and I can recommend doing something similar to everyone! Also playing guessing games with the same Hambox and Kerri!
- Hunting! Scavenger hunts are fun and makes me shoot pictures I'd never thought of if I hadn't had a list.
- Banal everyday objects go interesting (to me!) and everyday objects gets a twist.
- Diversity - no red thread going through my photo stream - or is it?
- Composition! Most of the time I don't care about what the subject is. I think everything can get interesting if the composition's right!
- Learning! I'm just an amateur, and looking at other ppl's photos, teaches me a lot - and commenting on other peoples pictures teaches me even more.
- Having fun!
I hava a Nikon D40x and an Olympus Mju 810.
Photoshop is my darkroom. I know many purists don't like photoshop, but just like I used to try making the most of my pictures in the laundry room (no windows there) when I was a teenager, I now use Photoshop in the same way.
All my pictures are all rights reserved. That means they are not to be used without permission.
I'm female, 1970-model from Norway.

"You can tell by looking at her photostream that Åsta is in love with the photographic medium and that medium should count it's blessings because what she does is amazing. Have you seen her macro of turkey meat? I have never thought of framing a picture of turkey meat until now! Just by looking at her photosteam, you feel her passion eminating out! Because of Flickr, i am fortunate enough to be able to get a little bit of her every day! Thanks Flickr and thank you Åsta!"
