Little me! :)

Photo of me, I guess it would be taken in the summer of 1980 or 1981! :) I have no memory of that dress, but now I think it is absolutely adorable!! :)

Summer by the sea

Sorry about the lack of updates, I haven't been feeling well for a few days ...
Summer by the sea, I love the reflection of the sun in the water.

Afternoon walk

Gorgeous weather for an afternoon walk - though it was quite windy and the winds are still really chilly. But nothing beats a walk by the ocean - a great way to clear the mind.
Photo taken today, with my cell phone camera (Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S).

Missed Forever.

A photo of baby Zorro - I think he is about 3-4 weeks old here. Have you ever seen anything so cute before?!?
I will always miss him.

Loved Always.

Today it was 2 years and 4 months since I lost Zorro - and I still grieve for him every single day.
This photo is the last one I took of him, on 1 November 2010.

The Love Of My Life



This is Zorro, my Somali cat. He passed away on 15 November 2010, and I haven't felt a complete person since then.
I got him when he was about three years old, in 2000, and we had almost 10½ wonderful years together - he helped through a dreadful time in my life, and still not a day goes by without me thinking about him and grieving.

First entry - Me! :)



Well, while I don't quite consider myself an ego-centric person, the first entry will actually be a picture of me! :)
I thought I'd take the oportunity to introduce myself if there are some blog readers out there who doesn't already know me ...
So this is me, taken on my 35th birthday earlier this year ... and if memory serves, I think it's only edited in Instagram.

Welcome!

Welcome to my picture blog!
While I have a personal blog as well (in Swedish), where I sometimes try to post "Pic of the Day", I don't always write in it every day, and sometimes I had lots of photos and don't want to add a "Pic of the Day" as well - so I figured I'd create a picture blog only.
I have tried this before, and it hasn't quite worked out, but I'm willing to give it one more try.
The idea is to actually add at least one picture/post every day - so hopefully you'll enjoy what you see and come back for more.

I am an amateur but I truly enjoy photography and digital editing, love playing with different apps on my cell phone as well as work in Photoshop on my computer, so I'm hoping to give you a decent mix of photographs and edited pictures here.

You can click on any picture to see a bigger version of it.

I always welcome comments, thoughts, ideas and constructive criticism, so feel free to tell me what you think! :)

Thank you for visiting my blog!
