The guess is 1988/89 and my grandfather had just given me my first camera. From recent research i have concluded that it was a kodak pocket instamatic 20, that you slided out from its short end side with a big red button for a trigger. 110mm roll film. This pic is from my first ever selfshot roll of film, and judging from the image i have always been a fan of streetphotography. Right. So. The image features my kid sister Karin and our neighbor Markus, a very crosseyed little mulletwearing kid with very high energy that lived across from us. To be more specific, the trashbin belongs to his house so im guessing i am standing with our flat in my back. Another guess is that Karins older brother, (me), has orchestrated the image to create more drama and give the imagery more life and social context. The place is Navestad, a very picturesque suburb neighborhood to the wonderful city of Norrköping where i was raised up. Lekaregatan 3-7.
