Is it a Leprechaun? Is it an extremist?? Or is it just a humble press photographer trying to do his job?
Well, take a look at the picture and judge for yourself. That's the Swedish King, Carl Gustaf, at his yearly moose hunt on the Hunneberg mountain. But who's the wild eyed, mysterious creature behind him to the right?
It's former King Laoghaire fiddle player Berne Strömberg, and the truth is that he is just doing his job as a photographer for local newspaper ELA. When we first saw this picture, we thought that Berne had been imprisoned for attacking the King. But now we know that he left King Laoghaire for completely different reasons.
How the hunt turned out is another story. |
