Strictly speaking it's not quite my home town since I grew up in the countryside 13 km outside it. But this is where I went to school, and this is where you would go for shopping, cinema or other amusements. When I left the town of Brønnøysund in 1972 it had 2000 inhabitants, now it has 5000. On a grey Sunday morning in late August I shot this roll of Neopan 400 with a Contax N1 and a Zeiss Planar 85mm f2.0 and later developed the film in Xtol. The good citizens of this town might not approve of the motifs I have chosen, but I do not find the new shopping mall or the flashy new buildings in steel and glass very interesting. The photos are presented here in the same sequence as they were shot, and at the end you will see that I returned to the starting point. This roll was shot in less than one hour, so it was quite efficient filmwasting.
