› Life as a nature photographer
What have I got myself into to be honest.. I love taking pictures but risking my life just to get few pictures.. Is it worth it? Maybe. Depends on situation. but to be honest, no.
When I went to my location to take these photos (below), I slipped and fell on big rocks. I managed to stop before hitting the big big rocks and water luckily. But I got hurt really bad and today I feel like a train has run over me.
WARNING; BLOOD AND WOUND
I really didn’t even notice that I was bleeding until I by accident saw it when I was fixing settings on my camera. After I saw it I felt the pain . Not before. How crazy is that? Thank God I was surrounded with snow so I could make it stop bleeding fast.
Today; I can move my finger but it hurts really bad. The wound is pretty deep and big.
Was it worth though? No. For me it wasn’t. The pictures didn’t turn out how I pictured them in my head but it is alright. I had a tiny adventure.
One thing I often ask myself, Am I a nature photographer or just a person trying really hard? What is really the answer? For me yes iam one but for professional photographers etc I would just be this “girl with a camera trying hard”.
My dream is to become a good photographer. Having the right equipment so I could be able to travel the world and take stunning pictures. A girl can dream right?
National Geographic Magazine. Now that would be an achievement of life time. Unfortunately I know that would never happen but I have a goal and that keep me moving forward.
Hopefully in future I’ll be able to take other pictures without risking to fall, slip and hurt myself. Lol!

› Current situation & photowalks in nature.
Goodmorning pumpkins! I hope you all are doing good this lovely Thursday 🙌🏻
im currently in thr bath, writing this. It’s freaking cold here in Sweden and due to my diabetes, my feelings in feets/toes aren’t the best so before I can put on my warm wool socks I need to warm them up.
Facebook page < link Plans for today? Well I went to the Healthcare clinic two days ago, met with a doctor who said I have no virus so I’m not in risk to get anyone else sick.. so I guess im going to school. WITH CAUTION OFCOURSE! Before school im gonna go buy more supplies of mouth mask/ facemasks. It’s starting to go low at home. And I’ll also sit in the way way back in the class.
What else? Well i got one of my packages with camera equipment! Woho. My tripod, few filters and also the hand holder (instead of the big to hang around your neck) but unfortunately that hand/wrist holder was bad because I tried it while sitting at the table and it “broke” so luckily the camera was mounted on to the screws.
I had a photowalk yesterday while the sun was out. Unfortunately it was harsh sunlight and i do not like that. But I managed to fix some pictures though.
not the best quality online though. I’ll upload more on my Instagram and Facebook page. Through my eyes and camera.
Instagram page < link Photography for me is my kind of relaxation. Unfortunately I went through some things the other day that made me decide to not take pictures in town and around buildings. I will tell you guys more about that later. It was a sad decision for me but I am still scared and haven’t been able to shake off what happened.

› Golden hour, flu and a little bit of.. thoughts?
the flu has struck..yes the flu has strucked in my household. Well it has attacked me and my immune..
No school for me today because I had 39.8°C in fever last night (the night til today) so I didn’t want to risk anything. Which ducked because I need to be in school. I can not focus at home, doing math and calculations.
So i decided to get dressed really warm and went out for a walk. I know i know “But Emma, you are sick!” yes I know iam but being inside all the time makes me insane.
so i grabbed my camera stuff and went out in the nature and captured some hidden gems. Unfortunately the sharpness and focus is bad on the camera but it’s fine for now. I only use to so I can re-learn the settings etc.
I wish I was able to make a cute copyright though to add on my pictures
I try the “gallery” function here on WP, let’s see how that works.

Fever, coughs etc. Luckily no one was out where I was taking pictures so I didn’t risk to get someone else sick. Yay! I have been outside many times (when energy) when sick but avoid areas where people are ofcourse. And now when I have the camera I can go outside for a walk (slow walk) and take pictures. Learn the settings plus working on my passion again.
My passion in photography has always been landscape, nature and macro. I have also always been interested in capturing stories with pictures such as visit an old and abandoned house with things left or something like that.. Unfortunately we do not have those here where I live. But I get to do the best of the situations and focus on the other “niches”.
I hope you all are doing good ! i apologize for being so quiet lately.

› Life update / crispy days.
October 30th.. already. I still can’t get my mind follow the life time because I can’t believe it’s already November! now that is insane! and only two months ish left of 2024..
It’s very cold outside here in north part of Sweden. The ice is here and minus degree celsius as well. Insane! I’m not ready, not mentally or physically 😪 but here we go.
So i have been quiet in the blog for a few days. I have been super busy with school, meetings, son and his new lifestyle etc. It’s an all mess right now but im still here. I see your comments and love but unfortunately I can not answer them via mobile (it always crash for me when I do) so I’m gonna answer everyone of your comments and love TONIGHT! Looking forward to get connected with you all again 💕 Sorry for all this.
Whats new? Well my son has gotten a new lifestyle we all adjust to (it’s normal with autistic children/people to get medicines, new routines, structures etc) which is taking some time but hopefully it will get better soon. We have noticed a few changes on E since we started. He is more calm, not so much anxious, being extremely hyper etc and he can focus better in school etc which is amazing!
E has also learned to count to 40, sing a long songs with almost perfect pronouncing of words plus sign languages. He has found his love for big Lego again (toys). It is so much better and so much new things E is showing us and we finding out from everyone 💕 so proud!
How have you been?? Something new and exciting or just something positive that has happened in your life since last? 💕 Comment below. Let’s connect 💕💕
