For some obscure reason he ended his street photography after 3 years. The camera he used had a disk of six circular frames. He his it under his vest, and often approached his "victim" with a smile.
The third clip shows a gost like image of author Henrik Ibsen. Carl Størmer must have been very fasinated by Ibsen, he is the subject in eight pictures. http://www.dagbladet.no/2009/03/19/magasinet/dokumentar/fotografi/film/ibsen/5 351234/ There are three film clips here. Hopefully you will be able to find them at this norwegian page. The red rectangle in ULH shows the clips into full screen. -- MaritimTim =========== This was very interesting, thanks for sharing. What he used was so weird looking, sort of an old-fashioned P&S that I wonder if all the people he approached KNEW it was a camera. Most look like they did, but still I wonder. Street photography, obviously, goes waaaaay back.
