Winter is a tough season for photographers here since we only get a few hours of daylight, less than four a day in my area. Further north, the sun doesn't rise at all during winter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hate winter. As in, if it were a living, breathing entity, if it were a creature I would want to kill it. Even though I'm generally a non-violent person and a vegetarian at that. I hate having to dig my car out of the snow and hacking away the ice while snow falls through the damnable gap between my coat sleeves and my gloves. I hate trying to adjust my eyes and brain so that I can &lt;i&gt;understand &lt;/i&gt;the colours I'm working on in a photograph or a painting since I cannot properly see them due to the lack of natural light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this winter has been strangely easy on me - so far, since there are about three months left of it. The snow was months late, weather on the plus side of Celsius well into November. It is not until now that Härnösand is starting to look... &lt;i&gt;normal&lt;/i&gt; for a Swedish winter landscape, and that makes it more bearable to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember one night last winter when it was&amp;nbsp;-34.6 ºF / -37&amp;nbsp;ºC and the walls of my mother's house where I was staying were so cold I had to pull my bed away from them. We had almost 60 inches of snow. Now it's about 3.2 ºF /&amp;nbsp;-16 ºC and we are all suddenly so very cold as we walk through a few inches of snow on the ground. Perspective...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XKJE6WNBX8Y/Tystnpu9m7I/AAAAAAAAJVM/qW3uJhW5ufo/s400/IMG_8163+(Kopia).JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Som ni nog vet bor jag i Härnösand. Det räknas till norra Sverige men ligger egentligen i mitten, vid kusten. En något besvärlig plats att bo på för en fotograf om vintern med bara några få timmars dagsljus, fyra eller så, även om det förstås är bättre än att bo längre norrut där solen inte går upp alls.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Jag &lt;i&gt;hatar&lt;/i&gt; vinter. Så mycket att om det vore en levande varelse skulle jag ha lust att slå ihjäl den - trots att jag egentligen är en icke våldsam person och dessutom vegetarian. Jag hatar att behöva gräva fram bilen ur snön och hacka loss is medan kalla snökristaller tar sig in i den förtretliga springan mellan kappärm och vante. Att behöva justera min blick och min hjärna så att jag&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;förstår&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;vad det är för färger jag jobbar med i en bild eftersom jag inte kan se dem i dagsljus.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Den här vintern har dock varit ovanligt lätt för min del - hittills, ska jag säga, eftersom det är sisådär tre månader kvar. Snön kom ett par månader för sent - haha! - och temperaturen låg på plussidan långt in i november. Inte förrän nu har Härnösand börjat se ut som ett normalt, svenskt vinterlandskap, och det gör i alla fall livet lättare för mig.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Jag kommer ihåg en natt förra vintern när det var -37 grader. Jag var hemma hos mamma och&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;väggarna&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;inne i huset var så kalla att jag fick dra bort sängen från dem, ut mot mitten av golvet, trots att alla element var på max och hon eldat i kaminen. I Härnösand hade vi 1,5 &lt;i&gt;meter&lt;/i&gt; djup snö. Rekord. Jippi. Nu är det -16 och plötsligt fryser vi alla så himla mycket när vi traskar fram genom någon decimeter snö. Perspektiv!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1L-5IsiB5pE/TysuUN0GKaI/AAAAAAAAJVU/K6vqTJi6nUw/s1600/vinterlandskap2C.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9064225399510621117-4024348573150111525?l=blog.afiori.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blog.afiori.com/feeds/4024348573150111525/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9064225399510621117&amp;postID=4024348573150111525&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/4024348573150111525'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/4024348573150111525'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.afiori.com/2012/02/peculiar-winter-en-underlig-vinter.html' title='A peculiar winter / En underlig vinter'/><author><name>Maria-Thérèse ~ www.afiori.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18369532662519310447</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7gp05j8E08M/Tx0-GGhkI8I/AAAAAAAAJPw/YWh3IygERw4/s220/5869586446_0a98edd7bb_o.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5cPY8Gupx_w/Tysr2NxF0cI/AAAAAAAAJVE/NFVixBdXuh0/s72-c/vinterlandskap+C.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064225399510621117.post-2147573200024986647</id><published>2012-02-02T00:28:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-05T00:42:10.505+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='timeline'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='facebook'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='creativity tips / kreativa tips'/><title type='text'>Facebook timeline: size of cover photo, banner picture / Nya tidslinjen i Facebook, storlek på omslagsbilden</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;[scrolla ned för svenska]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is for those on Facebook who, like me, had trouble finding out the size of the banner / cover picture in the new timeline layout. I just got timeline yesterday and wanted to design my cover photo so that it would look as good as possible and also have some text and my logo on it. Of course, you can just upload a picture and pull it into place, but then you don't need to read this :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dimensions of the banner are &lt;b&gt;851 x 315 px&lt;/b&gt;. I scaled the size to about 2 000 px wide (you could just triple the values or something) and uploaded a high resolution image which looked better than when I tried the actual 851x315. Still quite pixellated compared to the original (not fun for photographers!) but better. Another thing I had to fix was to add a bit of space to the top of the image / move the text down since it gets covered by a sort of navigation bar; compare the two pics in this post to see what I mean.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VmvmONrW-CY/Ty2_jUgqDYI/AAAAAAAAJV4/zu-F9Nd2d8Q/s1600/Fullsk%C3%A4rmsinf%C3%A5ngning+2012-02-05+000230.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VmvmONrW-CY/Ty2_jUgqDYI/AAAAAAAAJV4/zu-F9Nd2d8Q/s1600/Fullsk%C3%A4rmsinf%C3%A5ngning+2012-02-05+000230.jpg" style="text-align: center;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Lite information till er som är med på facebook och undrar vad det är för storlek på omslagsbilden eller bannern i nya tidslinjen. Jag skaffade tidslinje i går och ville designa mitt omslag så att det skulle se så bra ut som möjligt och även innehålla lite text och min logo. Naturligtvis kan man helt enkelt ladda upp en bild som vanligt och dra den på plats, men i så fall söker man inte efter den här informationen :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Storleken på bilden överst i facebook är &lt;b&gt;851 x 315&lt;/b&gt; px. Jag skalade upp den till över 2000 px bred (man kan ju bara ta värdena gånger tre eller något) och laddade upp en högupplöst bild vilket såg bättre ut än när jag laddade upp en bild som var 851 bred. Ändå blir det pixligt jämfört med originalet - inte kul för en fotograf - men bättre i alla fall. En annan sak var att översta delen av bilden döljs av en sorts meny när jag går in på min sida, så jag lade till lite "luft" överst / flyttade ned texten; jämför de båda bilderna här.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-z0QExqHDByY/Ty2_z7Em3RI/AAAAAAAAJWI/PvC5uq2MKQM/s1600/facebookbanner9liten.jpg" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;Facebook timeline cover pic, cover photo, top image, facebook banner, omslagsbild facebook, omslagsfoto, storlek, size, dimensions, design, personalize, web design&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9064225399510621117-2147573200024986647?l=blog.afiori.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blog.afiori.com/feeds/2147573200024986647/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9064225399510621117&amp;postID=2147573200024986647&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/2147573200024986647'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/2147573200024986647'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.afiori.com/2012/02/facebook-timeline-size-of-cover-photo.html' title='Facebook timeline: size of cover photo, banner picture / Nya tidslinjen i Facebook, storlek på omslagsbilden'/><author><name>Maria-Thérèse ~ www.afiori.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18369532662519310447</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7gp05j8E08M/Tx0-GGhkI8I/AAAAAAAAJPw/YWh3IygERw4/s220/5869586446_0a98edd7bb_o.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VmvmONrW-CY/Ty2_jUgqDYI/AAAAAAAAJV4/zu-F9Nd2d8Q/s72-c/Fullsk%C3%A4rmsinf%C3%A5ngning+2012-02-05+000230.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064225399510621117.post-7744817858116782752</id><published>2012-02-01T21:36:00.011+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-01T21:55:11.271+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fashion / mode'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art and life / konsten och livet'/><title type='text'>An open mouth is the new black / En öppen mun är det nya svarta</title><content type='html'>All of these 47 images are from one single magazine, except the mobile pics of me which are my artistic interpretation of the observations I made.

I've hardly ever played with kittens before due to what used to be a quite severe allergy, so perhaps I took it all out on Saga and Madicken ;) Still, Saga cuddled my arm before I left for the 3-hour ride home. It was a really nice day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Till slut blev de helt utmattade. Jag har knappt lekt med kattungar alls tidigare p.g.a. en före detta svår allergi, så jag kanske lekte föör mycket med Saga och Madicken ;) Men - Saga höll om min arm och gosade innan jag gav mig av på en tretimmars bussresa tillbaka hem. Det var en jättefin dag.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZMY0JPSgwXw/TyMruIW1WVI/AAAAAAAAJT8/xonC6Xlxde4/s1600/IMG_9080.JPG_effected+(Kopia).jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;Photos by Louise Andersson&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9064225399510621117-4630382058514952864?l=blog.afiori.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blog.afiori.com/feeds/4630382058514952864/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9064225399510621117&amp;postID=4630382058514952864&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/4630382058514952864'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/4630382058514952864'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.afiori.com/2012/01/play-date-with-kittens-leka-med.html' title='Play date with kittens / Leka med kattungar'/><author><name>Maria-Thérèse ~ www.afiori.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18369532662519310447</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7gp05j8E08M/Tx0-GGhkI8I/AAAAAAAAJPw/YWh3IygERw4/s220/5869586446_0a98edd7bb_o.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VBwqQx-_AC8/TyMn8uQHLxI/AAAAAAAAJSs/zrGlXG8Vh1E/s72-c/IMG_9082+2+(Kopia).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064225399510621117.post-5390298601752128811</id><published>2012-01-26T22:42:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-26T22:42:03.929+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photography / foto'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art and life / konsten och livet'/><title type='text'>and three very light ones / och tre mycket ljusa</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bjr4dq8xG0o/TyHISByCy0I/AAAAAAAAJSU/aFlPgcHMg4k/s1600/IMG_8850+(Kopia).JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LhCVKRrCcoI/TyHITs071SI/AAAAAAAAJSc/56kqH-jh2vg/s1600/IMG_8852+(Kopia).JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1j5w4HSsm04/TyHIU5UbLEI/AAAAAAAAJSk/t_9uabWA_Rw/s1600/IMG_8853+(Kopia).JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;of the ranunculi on my desk.

It's about an exhibition of artist Bengt Lindström's work, arranged by the Härnösand Art Society and about artist Anders Lidén who spoke about Lindström at the opening. They knew each other since Anders was a baby so he told lots of interesting stories and even had an old sketchbook with him where Lindström had practised writing his autograph over and over again :) The large black and white photo was taken before my time but the other two are mine. I had also submitted two more, a still life and a landscape:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Nu är det första gången på länge som jag har en artikel publicerad i Tidningen Ångermanland; denna är med i dag och handlar om en utställning med verk av Bengt Lindström som just nu ställs ut av den ideella Härnösands Konstförening på Härnösands Konsthall. Den svartvita bilden överst i artikeln är tagen före min tid, de andra två av mig. Hade även skickat in två till, ett blomsterstilleben och en bro i Härnösand:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-u56WhNBdMSg/Txru2CfUuoI/AAAAAAAAJOc/QPbDbwoTeVA/s1600/Lindstr%25C3%25B6m.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;If you don't know Bengt Lindström's art, have a look at &lt;a href="http://www.bengtlindstrom.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.bengtlindstrom.com&lt;/a&gt; and you'll see how different these early works are to the very famous ones he created from the 1960s onward, which is also part of what the exhibition is about, showing his lesser known, or even unknown, work.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Som ni ser om ni läser min artikel nedan handlar utställningen mycket om att visa Bengt Lindströms mindre kända verk fram till 60-talet.

Jag tror den handlar om rymden och om att flickor behöver manlig hjälp för att klara sig, även av yngre bröder, medan flickorna tomskallat sitter och rättar till sina klänningar på svengelska.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PMhdX2PNmik/TxhnmdLh6cI/AAAAAAAAJN8/D5ZEdRT7S1s/s400/IMG_8596+%2528Kopia%2529.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;Then I conducted scientific experiments. &lt;span style="color: #e06666;"&gt;Sedan gjorde jag vetenskapliga experiment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9064225399510621117-6498092806777982595?l=blog.afiori.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blog.afiori.com/feeds/6498092806777982595/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9064225399510621117&amp;postID=6498092806777982595&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/6498092806777982595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9064225399510621117/posts/default/6498092806777982595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.afiori.com/2012/01/today-in-pink-i-dag-i-rosa.html' title='Today in pink / I dag i rosa'/><author><name>Maria-Thérèse ~ www.afiori.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18369532662519310447</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7gp05j8E08M/Tx0-GGhkI8I/AAAAAAAAJPw/YWh3IygERw4/s220/5869586446_0a98edd7bb_o.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RrA4Br2_SDE/Txhni3DLccI/AAAAAAAAJNk/6VGsqjaMJ9I/s72-c/IMG_8592+%2528Kopia%2529.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064225399510621117.post-5668434779369539810</id><published>2012-01-17T20:11:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-19T23:53:29.305+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='portrait photography / porträttfoto'/><title type='text'>Gretel</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5O1tL5Vh_C4/TxXGIqRkd9I/AAAAAAAAJL0/CGQe-DqZaWQ/s1600/P1171941+2+%2528Kopia%2529+%25282%2529.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing one-month-old little Gretel who was very cute and calm but I was quite nervous when her mom simply placed her in my lap. Omg! So tiny! I might... do something wrong! I've photographed babies before, of course, but it's been quite some time since I met a newborn and I've completely forgotten how tiny they are. I tried to make her smile and focus on the camera for about an hour until her mom said that she simply&lt;i&gt; can't&lt;/i&gt; focus her eyes or smile yet...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;I dag hade jag nöjet att träffa och fotografera lilla Gretel som är en månad gammal, väldigt söt och lugn. Jag blev dock nervös för hennes mamma lade henne i mitt knä. Herreje! Så liten! Tänk om jag... gör något fel! Gör illa henne! Jag har fotograferat bebisar tidigare, förstås, men det är ett tag sedan jag träffade en nyfödd och jag har helt glömt hur små de är. Försökte skoja med henne och få henne att fokusera på kameran i en timme tills hennes mamma sa att hon faktiskt inte&lt;i&gt; kan&lt;/i&gt; fokusera blicken och le än...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gktrv3PztHI/TxXGSCECEkI/AAAAAAAAJL8/RrH0UEkFXUg/s1600/P1171952+%2528Kopia%2529+%25282%2529.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6P1fO62Tj2Y/TxXGToTlojI/AAAAAAAAJME/F28f9cjZrqk/s1600/P1171910+%2528Kopia%2529+%25282%2529.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kQ7155cx2rQ/TxXGjFwol-I/AAAAAAAAJMU/PcpS4BS6h9U/s1600/fb.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Because you should be honest, many photos also look like these.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;/ Eftersom man ska vara ärlig ser många bilder också ut så här.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nIz3gLoLHjI/TxXHROoCOLI/AAAAAAAAJMc/OqYXbMpnOv4/s1600/P1171921+%2528Kopia%2529+%25282%2529.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rrhRd_1vsig/TxXGWLfwGFI/AAAAAAAAJMM/vDZRiO1v0y8/s1600/P1172085+%2528Kopia%2529+%25282%2529.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Like a true model, Gretel brought several different outfits.

Actually, the first thing I saw was a huge full moon when I woke up unusually early, before 9. I've taken &lt;a href="http://www.finistere.se/blogg/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=2577" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank"&gt;better photos of the moon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;before,&amp;nbsp;though, I must say (2nd pic). Anyway, when daylight finally came, daylight actually did come, complete with sunshine, oh and did I mention there was sunshine today? I do hope all the sucky snow will melt away into spring very soon ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;I dag var en solig dag i Härnösand vilket gjorde mig jätteglad... Faktiskt vaknade jag ovanligt tidigt, före 9, och såg en märkvärdig, stor fullmåne.

We decided to start a little lip paint project and this is my first attempt, inspired by the fact that I woke up several times because it was so cold last night... I am just starting to learn more about make-up in general (late, I know) but really, why not draw stuff instead of just... shading?

Vi bestämde oss för att påbörja ett läpprojekt och det här är mitt första försök, inspirerat av att jag vaknade av att jag frös flera gånger i natt... Håller precis på att lära mig mer om smink (sent, men ändå) men jag tycker bara att... Varför inte rita lite grejer i stället för att bara skugga?

At your last birthday party, did a cat play the piano for you? Didn't think so; that's because you're not pals with Apa, my neighbour's cat, who dropped by and entertained me today while I ate tons of cake with friends and mum. The part lasted for 12 hours.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Någonsin varit med om att en katt spelat piano för er när ni fyllt år? Trodde inte det; det är för att ni inte känner Apa, min grannes katt, som kom och underhöll i dag medan jag åt tårta i stora lass tillsammans med vänner och mamma.

Från Beatrice vars föräldrar samlar på mina konstfotografier. I kväll var jag på bio och därefter till en bar med tre kumpaner och kalasdagen tog slut strax efter midnatt.

Then I kind of couldn't eat it. Strange thing is that I had &lt;i&gt;just &lt;/i&gt;decided to make a batch of sprouts (from beans, not tomatoes...) for the first time in over a year. This must mean something. That 2012 will be an excellent year, no doubt, with sprouts everywhere, very a fiori [with flowers].&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Hittade en liten grodd inuti en tomat. Sedan kunde jag inte riktigt äta den. Konstigt nog hade jag &lt;i&gt;precis&lt;/i&gt; bestämt mig för att göra groddar (av mungbönor, inte tomater) för första gången på över ett år. Detta måste betyda något. Antagligen att 2012 blir ett alldeles fenomenalt år, små groddar överallt, väldigt a fiori [med blommor, blomsterbestrött].&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8ZIqpYK1eJ0/TwMykKRinUI/AAAAAAAAI_c/qLF1CgVR7CY/s1600/IMG_7831.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;P.S.
