Well here is the third assignment we did this semester, I have the last one ready to post soon as well. The assignment were to make an design manual for the fictional company Patch to Plate who were in the start-up process. The company wanted to specialise in distributing local ecological produced food. The complete design manual and full report can be found by clicking the link down under the pictures.

A few days ago I went together with my friend JC and my brother up the stone-stairs of the side of Ravnedalen, kind of steep steps and a good 15-20 minutes to climb for the top, but the result is a nice view overlooking Grim with Kvadraturen and Odderøya in the back.
Ravnedalen was built in the years 1874–1878 by military soldiers under Colonel Joseph Frantz Oscar Wergeland’s command.
Anyway, i didn@t go there just to look at the view myself, i also went to shoot some photos from the climb and the top. Here you got one of the shots faked to resemble miniature (using the quickmask-gradient-lensblur method)
The view from the top of the stairs in Ravnedalen.
I am in the start of the summer vacation and had an as good ending of the second semester as it were possible, scoring an A at the semester exams and also scored A or 100% on all other assignments this semester. For the exams I had to design an new website for the company FatCow Games AS, however I cant really show you anything since I have yet to install the design to their site.

Hi, I am back after a while on holyday, and also some days without connection to the www, some problems at the internet provider’s side, really annoying. We had a really nice trip going from 13 degrees Celsius and landed at night in around 30 degrees Celsius. I will try to give a little recap of the vacation here.
Already on the first night we went to a pub down the street from the hotel, the next day we decided we wanted to check out the pool, and had a really good time just relaxing at one of the hotels 3 pools. For diner we went to the hotel restaurant (not the best choice but we needed to start somewhere)… we had mousak (more…)
Yesterday was the last day for one of the co-hosts for the Radio show I am one of the hosts for, this makes us down to 2 hosts and there is now room for a new host to join our radio team. Of course we need writers for the main site also. So if you are living in Kristiansand and want to join a team of volunteer writers to write articles about cultural events and stuff in Kristiansand, you would be more than welcome to the team. After the show yesterday we went out to party and had one of the best Tuesday night out in a long time :D
I have been working on yet another version of the wall with the singe window, this time I have been trying to add some flowers and a hedge on top, however I can’t seem to get it right so I will post an accidently made work of woodflower instead.
I have not had time to write as much here as I would have liked the last days, so I will do a recap of the last days most interesting events. I have for the last days done an odd job one hour trip by car away from here at Evje. On Wednesday this week I had an expensive experience that I deserved for sure. I was kinda tired and a little hungry and wanted to get home as soon as possible, so I stepped on the speed to get home earlier, I normally don’t speed much over the speed limits. When I was 15 minutes away from home, at the end of the 70 km/h limits were the 50-60s start there was this annoying burgundy Volvo V70 driving a little too close to me, so I speeded even more to get a little gap between me and the Volvo, but it came back after a little while each time I did this. I entered the 60 limit and after the first corner in the 50s that comes right after, down the hill after Høyetun the Volvo was back again, then it came to me; “I have screwed up, haven’t I?” Right after I thought this the blue strobes went on and I had to stop. “Could I see your driver’s license please, we measured you too 88,55 km/h over 2 kilometers in the 70 limit zone.” So much for wanting to get home a little earlier, the cost came to a fine of 3600 NOK and 1 penalty point on the license (If you get 8 points over 3 years you lose the license for 6 months). My first Fine ever since I got my license 8 years ago. The thing is that I was planning on giving myself a new lens for my camera for that money, something I would need to forget.
I have on my way home the other days been looking for nice photo opportunities, and yesterday the lighting made a sight that I drive past each day look really good, it’s the ruins of a long forgotten bridge. (One two of the wooden poles still standing) I got more good pictures that day, but I will only show one of them here, the rest is possible to see at my DeviantArt site: LINK
I have also received more works from potential artists for the Illustrated story, I am looking forward to the time were the story will be realized.
A photo I shot on my way home from a job, the place was more than just what you see from the picture, the sun hitting the walls and leaving trails of light into the building. I was hoping to capture that but when I had reached the car and got the camera the lighting changed. Anyway I got some good shot from the place anyway. Hope you enjoy this one :)
