This is the last homework I had to give back to Nicephore for the first chapter. The aim was to use multiple sources of light and the other instruction was that it had to be colourful. I used led lights and filters for the first time in my life and it wasn't easy! Follow the story of Lily searching for some clouds (and of course there might be some outtakes in the end:

And another black and white photography post!
Here is another work I did for Nicephore school of Photography that I'm quite happy with. Only seven photos to give back so it was a very very hard selection as I experimented a lot! (this one above wasn't even in the ones I gave back! Let me tell you more about it here:

A bit of black and white photography
One of my homework for Nicéphore, the photo school I talked to you about here, was to do portraits (above waist) black on black, white on white, black on white etc. you get the gist. The challenge was that each time, it needed to be with different lights (strong, moody etc.). I wanted to show it to you because it's not what I usually photograph and because I'm quite happy with how it came out:

Bath attempt number 3 with Lily
Remember when I tried my first and my second bath attempt? Well, I did it again! This time it was in the frame of my photo school exercise. The exercise was about taking photos with black on black, white on black, white on white etc. without burning the whites or hiding the blacks. But I also took pics in colour knowing I would want to put my bath pictures here:

Eliott and Lily: would like me and you to do something about the bushfires in Australia.
They cried about it. And Eliott gave his pocket money. The times seems to have passed but there are still many things to do. I'll link in this post all the places where you can still donate:

Winter mood during our Christmas in Sweden
Looks like a black and white picture, right? Well, it isn't. It's just the mood of that day. If not the mood of the entire stay. There wasn't any snow nor frost. But at least there was beautiful pictures to take.
I never thought I would enjoy a foggy rainy winter day, but I did. And many times over:

The Year 2019 in in pictures and posts
In the end, I decided to do a year in review like I did last year and the year before, just to have an overview, a little round up and start fresh for 2020. Good way to share memories and see how quickly time goes. Also a nice way to see that when I think I haven't done much, it's maybe not so true.
Another year full of recipes, tips, inspiration and portraits. It's also the year I started working with my new camera for the first time, can you see the difference in style?:

Lily's flower (heart) bath - attempt number 2
Remember attempt number one? well, one might say it was a while ago. It was exactly a year! A few weeks ago, around Valentine, Instagram had it's week-end hashtag theme on love. And I created these bath photos for it. And I posted one there then!
I thought it was interesting to see them all in a blog post. And now, I'm still contemplating doing a proper flower one soon. But maybe not with Lily! Meanwhile, here are the ones with the two sets of hearts I took that day:
