HIIIIIIIIIIIIII Stephan!!!!!!!!!!!
Marrie me! I love you!
LOLLLLLLL
Oh dearest friend! Only today I realized you have a site http://www.stefanengstrom.com... Of course I went there!
B E A U T Y F U L !!!!!!!!!!!!!
As you know, that "glassy stuff" is on of my passions in USEFILM... The opportunity of seeing all those photos toghether, in that white background... Damn, DAMN!!!! I'm not being nice... It's breathless!! I'm so damn sad that my English vocabulary is so limited...
The only thing I noticed that could be better is that idiea of following the link "Athena"... I didn?t realize what it meant 'till I saw the photo in USEFILM...
Are you going to make an exibition???? That's great!!!! I'm so happy for you! Keep in touch! Take some photos of it and share them with us!!!!!
Hugs and kisses!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(And don't you even think about marrie me! LOL ;-)))))))))))))
PS.: Sorry about this silly way of expressing myself but I'm really happy for you!!

Hi Lucy thanks for sharing your thoughts. I've been trying go gague what is reasonable as well. Two things are a little different about these photos. Each print is essentially a negative and as such it is unique and cannot be printed again. This may be a good thing from the point of view of selling them, but it limits editions to one. On the other hand, I still have my "subjects" (pieces of glass), and with patience and luck I will always be able to go back into the darkroom and explore some more.

just took a look at your site. i like it. the stark quality works well with your photographs. i agree about the centering. regarding pricing, i've been wondering about this myself as someone has approached me to show my stuff. i've been looking at other photographers who show in exhibits, pubs, restaurants, shops etc and that's been giving me a rough idea. you might want to try that out.

"Stark and crisp" - I like that. I see a wind- and water-carved "badlands" landscape. Ummm... I hate to say this but it also looks a bit like a hair clog I pulled out of the sink drain. But in a very artistic way :-] ... Anyway - very cool.

Hi Michael - thanks for your comment. It is not ink, but just light striking the photographic paper. More details scattered about my portfolio in the other similar images in the "Refractions" category.

Thank you for stopping by Verena - I did consider putting a box for direct feedback on the contact page, but my experience from other sites is that many will not enter a return address, making the contact less useful for me. By sending email one usually gets a valid return address too at no extra effort to the visitor.

Hi Stefan,
strong homepage, are you able to install also a guestbook on the page?
I guess people would like to leave a comment directly on the page, what do you think?
Cheers,
Verena

Hi Steff - thanks for stopping by the website. I have no idea of how to price those prints, but it would be nice if I could make enough for a new camera :-) I try to practice self-sustaining hobbies!

oh.. dear Stefan... another fine piece of original work from you... an abstract that floats in space with grace and inner rhythm... seems like fairy wings ready to fly to other worlds.... excellent once again.... kisses... emy
PS: i also took a look at your website my friend... striking elegant with a minimalistic approach of black & white... very classy and i love the idea of the hidden links within "Athena"... was that choise made on purpose???? i find it quite brilliant that you have to get within the Godess of Wisdom to find out where the rest of the images are... also their arrangement within the separate galleries was really nice... but i strongly believe that you should upload more of your work.... you don?t have a problem in finding suitable images... got so many!!!! really nice work... :-))))

WOW! Absolut amazing! Your site works well for me, I like its simplicity. Very creative work and very experimental. Guess those artworks will fetch a really good price being original one-offs - if you are ready to part with it, that is. Hope to see more soon!

Thank you Hugo for the feedback. The idea with not labeling the naviagation bar on the left was to keep it as visual as possible - hence reducing text on the gallery pages to a minimum, but I do see your point. On the other hand it could be a fun discovery if the viewer does not bother to read the text on the front page. The centering was part of the plan but differences between how IE and Firefox render CSS forced this solution for now. You are absolutely right about filling in four and five...

Hi Stefan, Well composed. I had a look at your website following your post in the forum, and it has a very slick look and feel. One suggestion is to show a faint hint at the navigational buttons without the need for hovering your mouse over the buttons. Nice and simple design. Also, I think centering the setup would make it more balanced on different screen resolutions. Last, I think I would fill pages four and five too before you "officially" launch it. You have enough suitable work, I'd say....:)
Very interesting "shot" too. The patterns create a strong feeling of texture and perspective.
Cheers,
Hugo

Athena, web, prehistoric, and this photograph appear to be the strongest compositions to my eye. Is this a drop of india ink in water?
Whatever the technique, these images are really graphically striking with a pure/black and white dynamic interaction.
FYI: The one word titles make the image - almost like a non-mirrored strandy Rorschach pattern.
