Soooooo, I don't think I need to say anything about this GIF.
It's quite self explanatory, really.
I'm dancing. And walking. Under a bridge.
Yup.
This little photo series was taken when David and I was in Gärsnäs and found half a bridge in the middle of nowhere. Read that post
here.
Hej hej!
Today I have a post for you that has been lying unedited on my computer since july. I just haven't had the time (or memory) to edit and post it but now, finally, here it is!
David and I found half a bridge one day when we were driving around during one of our visits to Österlen, and we thought "Huh! What was that?!? Was that really half a bridge in the middle of nowhere?!"
So obviously we had to go back and have a look one evening armed with our cameras.
This was before we bought our Nikon D7000 so these photos are taken with my old Nikon D80.
The bridge is situated in a tiny town called Gärsnäs. We parked the car and crossed the train tracks.
The bridge!
We found our way underneath the bridge. The sun was setting and it was almost magical.
I both like and find it sad how the tree had made it all around the metal thingy but still someone came and chopped it down. Seems unnecessary, doesn't it? And kind of evil, sort of Ha! We waited until you thought you made it and then BAM! We killed you!
All of a sudden we heard a sound! We turned around and realised we had company by a cat who seemed to hang out there every day by the way it moved around so familiarly.
I understand how the cat must love this place because it was so beautiful! Like a jungle ruin from another time.
David was eager to get to the part of the bridge where it ends abruptly into nothing.
Sadly we couldn't find any way to get up there. David tried though...
Without success.
The cat had spotted something in the high grass.
Still looking for ways to get up there.
Looking back the way we came.
I took the opportunity to dance among the pillars.
Trying to do something acrobatic and realising I don't know how to so ending up doing this instead.
Aaahh, magical place!
David in the middle.
There in the distance you can see the end of the bridge. It just stops there.
David checking to see if it's open. Of course it wasn't.
Checking another door. It was open. But it was nothing intersting to see in there. I love the light in this photo though. So pretty.
Then I set up the camera to play with the timer. David was patiently waiting for me to prepare all the settings.
Obligatory kissing picture.
And then some goofing around.
Look at David's hand! Haha, so cute!
Then it was time to leave and we went back to the car and spotted the cat one more time. I think he followed us around to see what we were up to.
I really love to go on this kind of photo adventure with David. Taking lots of photos and discover interesting/beautiful/weird/fun places together.
Today it's three months since we got married. These photos were taken almost two months before that and I can't believe how quickly time has been passing. It feels like yesterday!
Last saturday was the second day of november, the month many people complain about being grey and dull. I'm here to prove you wrong, my friends.
November is full of colour and I love the many nuances of purple, orange, brown and green you can find.
So maybe I'm a bit partial because this is my birthday month but I still feel that people are being too mean to november and they just need to have a look around to see how beautiful it can be.
David and I took a walk over the amazing hills in Rörum where we got married. This is a place that is just fantastic all year round.
Lets have a look at one of those 365 gorgeous days.
Wherever we go here we get a nice look at "our" tree where we said I do in august. It's on top of a hill and can be seen from far away.
And the view when looking back from half way up the hill.
Almost there.
David got there first. But only because I was taking photos of him.
Looking out from underneath the tree. This is what I'm talking about: COLOUR! Lots and lots of it! SEE!?!
David: "What?! Are you taking photos of me from above now!?!"
Yes?
The best shaped valley I've ever seen.
Walking in line.
This is just too cute.
Makes me giggle every time.
Love how these six trees are standing there all grouped together like this. They are best friends.
And look! Our tree again!
Love how the stone wall snakes over the hills.
Moss and grass on a stump. Things like this can keep me happy and occupied for hours, I promise. There's even a rusty nail in the back. And white, whispy rope.
I have a lot of photos of this stump. From many angles. Yes.
Then we met a pretty cow and talked to her for a while before we went back home again.
Today has been a weird day. Nothing special has happened, I've just had a weird feeling all day. And a big red pimple on top of my nose. It hurts. My entire nose hurts. I mean, the skeleton is in pain.
I made the mistake of thinking the pimple was ready to be popped. It was so not ready.
I'm paying for it now, I'll tell you.
Hej hej!
So I'm back with the promised Entire Day iPhone post.
I love to take photos with both my Nikon and my iPhone and the biggest difference (besides photo quality and options) is how I edit them afterwards. All photos taken with my Nikon is edited in Adobe Lightroom but my Iphone photos never leave my phone for editing. I'm using the app VSCOCam for all my photos because I think it's the best photo app there is. I actually take my photos with VSCOCam too becuase it has the ability to separate exposure and focus, making it possible to have more control of the light and the focus in the pictures. By the way, I'm not sponsored by VSCOCam, I'm just a little bit in love.
After the photo has been taken I edit it in the app. Sometimes I use the great premade filters but I can also change the light, contrast, and play with the tints of the shadows and highlights and so much more if I want to do that. It is a terrific app!
The cold i had a few weeks ago came back with a vengeance during last weekend and yesterday was a particularly bad day so I didn't have much energy and I slept a lot in between our little adventures. But here is my day anyway!

Woke up around 8 in the morning because I couldnt breathe through my nose. Lay in bed looking at the light coming through the shade. I love the light in this room in the mornings. It makes such a lazy and cozy feeling.
We decided to go in to Simrishamn for breakfast. This is how I looked. Tired and under the weather but quite happy anyway.
Simrishamn in morning light. Love to see the market people getting everything ready for the day.
We always go to a place called Café Kagan, they have a great breakfast buffet!
Breakfast! That bread is to die for.
When we came home I ended up infront of the jigsaw puzzle again.
It actually went quite well this time.
But after a while I fell asleep in the sofa for two hours. I was so tired!
Afternoon snacks! Persimon and plum. And a large cup of tea.
Sat infront of the computer for a while editing the photos that I blogged yesterday.
Time for some fresh air! I decided to leave my Nikon at home and took the analog camera we bought on a fleamarket this summer. And my iPhone, of course!
We went to Vik! This is the fishing village where I spent every summer as a child and up until three years ago. Love this place so much. The house prices there are insane and my family used to rent a house there for a couple of weeks every summer before they got the house we're in now.
David and I try to squeeze in a little trip to Vik everytime we are here becuase it's just so beautiful.
The cliffs have perfect natural steps making it easy to get in and out of the water. If you know where to find them...
The Rose! A famous rock formation that people come from afar to see. Isn't it amazing!?!
It always interests me how some things end up on cliffs and beaches. This large rusty circle thing for an example. Looks kind of nice there anyway.
When we came home we made a very tasty fish soup with canned cocktail tomatoes, celery, potatoes, carrots, three different types of onions, lots of garlic, salmon and cod and a dollop of aioli on top. I just improvised the recipe and it turned out amazing!
You can see for yourself how excited I was.
David was not too keen on being photographed while eating. But I don't care, because I'm mean like that.
After dinner I edited the last bunch of photos and blogged. With the super speedy internet connection here it took a couple of hours. So now you know how much work goes into these posts!
Today has been a slow day. I've been writing a bit, we went on a walk over the hills but otherwise not much happening. Kind of nice, actually. We're going to a restaurant in the evening though so that should be fun.
Hope your weekend will be everything you want it to be.
Tjingeling!
