And based on the film location (Södra Vretv. 15 in Luleå) it is Oskar's apartment entrance which must be to the right seen from the courtyard.

We know the film apartments were studios - maybe the same studio lay out, only changing the interior when they switched between Oskar's and Eli's apartments.

I guess this is the right place for more pictures of Blackeberg. These might not be of the best quality, but is taken at a different season and lighting condition.

A rather familiar gate.
Image
The door to a very special persons apartment ;) (To Oskar anyway) .
Image
The very same apartment. Notice how the window is covered, this was also present in the summer photo, suspicious if you ask me ;) .

Will come with more later, I took a ton of these, the real question is what is worth showing :think:

This is more like it! :)
I envy you, the conditions in Blackeberg right now should be very close to the book.
Sean just left on the bus, It looks like you two (at the very least) will meet in Blackeberg tuesday. :)

Just a regular cold since I've had rather moderate fever, but sore throat, clogged up nose and general tiredness is enough to keep me still...

Ah, good. The fever was pretty intense, I've been living on paracetamol and codeine 3-4 times a day... :?

Wow you are very observant! I didn't realize this until you mentioned it.
"Can we die?" "Of course we can." Eli put his hand on his heart, felt the slow beats. Maybe it was because he was a child. Maybe that was why he hadn't put an end to it. The pangs of conscience were weaker than his will to live.

Yeah, I have to say that I really like Blackeberg, if its possible I will live there :D . Looking forward going there again, I only hope Sean remember to contact me about what time.

How's about we say 14:00 in front of the Tunnelbanan? That way I can get some daylight pics, and then some in the Vampire light later. :D
It just won't look the same in daylight, even with all the fantastisk snow.
