All photos were taken last year during my visit to Stockholm. All but the last one were taken in the Skansen (that's one fantastic place!). Usually I would not take such photos in my country, so it was interesting experience for me ...

Selling

(... ekhem ... I don't remember what )


At the bakery

(I'm quite happy with this one - a bit in the August Sander's style)


What's your name?

(At the pottery)


In the glassblower's workshop.

(The girl was making a figurine of a moose)


Do you remember the girl from the picture #1?

I met her for the second time in a restaurant - some short chit-chat with a colleague.


Knitting

(taken in the "private" part of the post office house)


Maid

One of the girls guiding visitors around the palace

And another maid in the same mansion


I hope you'll like these shots. Thanks for looking.

Really great stuff, I like the tint you've used in these. The lady on the left in # 5 down looks like Julia Roberts.

I lived in Stockholm for 6 months back in 1972. We visited Skansen several times - it was memorable, and I hope to go back in the not-too-distant future.

Lovely series of shots. What is your B&W conversion process? Very well done!

Thank you nldunne, SteveZ, and zemlin.

@SteveZ - hmm, maybe she was Julia Robert?

@zemlin - Skansen is fantastic. I like very much that it is live: people working in there or even maybe living in there. All looks like moved back in time. Just fantastic. As for my B&W process - after trying many approaches I decided to take a simplistic and straightforward approach: OptikVerve Labs plugin

Very nicely done. A real show of the place, and the people. I really like them a lot.
