Kalix

Well, hello again my friends, it's been a while since last and I'm sorry for that, I'll try to make it up to you this holiday and photograph as much as I can and actually upload the photos here afterwards. I admit that I'm very lousy at that, haha.

Anyway, this is some photos from last summer, we were suppose to take photos that is typical Kalix, so here they are :)

Workshop with Anders Geidemark

Today - and yesterday - we (all classes in art at my school) were at a workshop with nature photographer Anders Geidemark. I think it was a great time to learn new things  and all that, even if I  knew the most of the things he said :)

Helena and Winston

Yesterday my class went to the local stable to shoot some horses and I'm really happy with the result!
We got to shoot all the school's horses and also Helena.B and her horse Winston af Blenheim both in the paddock and out on the field. Actually first time I've done something like this, and It was really fun!

The unexpected beauty

I was on a little walk when we where at our summer place and found this little spot. It was late evening and the light gave everything a very warm and nice feeling and then I saw this spot, blue in the colour from the shadows, like an extreme contrast to everything else and some ironthingy laying there on the ground to use as a motive. 

My thought with these photos was to show how cool it was with these contrasts, and I think succeeded. It's both really cold colours and really warm colours in the same photo, which I think made the whole photo. The warm colours or "dots" come from some leaves I used in the foreground :)

Akina

Here's some photos of my dog Akina from when we went to our summer place for a week, it's a really nice place only negative is that we do not have running water nor electricity, so there isn't much to do there, but that means more time behind the camera, so I can't complain ;)

and I also got a shot at some ducks in a hurry at late evening

Tatar

For about 2½ week ago I was on a training for Andreas Hesse with one of the riding school's horses and it went amazingly good! We trained how to ride in to a combination where the first jump we're really small and the second had various hight.
I can sum it up like this: the horse was amazing, he have a really special jump style that I really can't describe and we jumped 3,6 ft (110cm) and he was high over every time! I can also say it's the first time I've jumped this high so I'm really proud over myself too! :)

Anyway, here's some photos of Tatar after the training, I think he thought it was really nice to get dirty again ;)
