• the hair covering her hair is perfect. I am having a shoot soon, this is so inspiring! - oftheoceans

return

just bought another one-year subscription, so i guess i should make use of it!
wow, it's been a while.
i've felt completely lost of inspiration so photography slipped away from me this past year. which i am really sad about, and i am also a bit disappointed with myself that i let it happen. and ashamed that i've been too afraid to start again, in fear of having lost my "talent". it's happened so many times - i used to paint, then stopped, and now i think all my paintings/drawings look horrible. i used to write, but now i feel every sentence i put together is terrible. i don't want it to be that way with photography either, but instead of picking up my camera, i let it be and postponed it. but now i'm trying to pull myself together and getting into photography again (and before the first snow falls!). i hope you'll bear with me.
and also, thank you so much for your support. i can't thank you enough. you are my main inspiration! i am also ashamed for not having checked my flickr mail, and i see i have a lot of new messages that i haven't replied to - please accept my apologies!
oh, and if you know some inspirational flickr'ers or photographers, i would appreciate some suggestions!
love,
nikoline

    Haunting picture, very beautiful. From the looks of it you haven't lost your "talent" which is a good thing :)

    I'm so glad you're back!
    I agree with ghislain, this image is very chilling but quite peaceful too.

    It's so great to see you're back in action. I can't wait to see more work from you. I told you before, but you're the reason I choose to go to Krabbesholm this spring. You are such an inspiration :)

    The point when you realize you haven't taken photos for awhile and you start getting back into it is one of the greatest times because you aren't drained... good luck, can't wait to see what's coming!

    I'm not able to give any suggestion -- but I'm soooo happy to see your beautiful photos again.

    Keep going -- "inspiration" and "talent" are just words. Keep your eyes wide open -- and the images will show up themselves.

    Hvordan gikk det? Har du kommet inn i det igjen? Jeg har nettopp flytta til Oslo og opplever mye av det samme, nemlig. Så jeg vil gjerne høre hva du tenker om situasjonen i etterpåklokskap.
