| Recently I found a back-up CD with some lost folders of photos. I had forgotten about these, so it was a really nice surprise :) |

| My cat, Miisu, in 2010. I miss her so much, I don't think I'll ever get over her death. The grief just gets bigger and bigger as time goes by instead of fading away. |

And some music..

| A cat without a home and the wall of our neighbour's house. Pity this cat won't let anyone touch her...I'd be happy to take her with me. I named her Countess Whiskers. Ain't that dandy :D |

A song by Prata Vetra/Brainstorm. It's in Latvian. I have no idea what it's about but it's been one of my favorite tracks for 3 years (maybe more) now.

| The branches of my favorite apple tree. And a hopeful bird. I'm pretty certain it is from 2010. |
And since I'm in a melancholy mood today...

| A photo taken in 2008. I think I was going through boxes of my old toys and found these :) I want to be a kid. Or really old. Or maybe just dead. Technical info: Nikon Coolpix L11 |

| Taken in summer while visiting our relatives in Valga. This is their cat. He was in a pleasure coma for half an hour after receiving the best massage ever. Yes, the room is a bit messy and old-looking but I love it nevertheless. |
And lately I've really been enjoying "Back to the future" again. It was (and still is) one of my favorite movies of my childhood.
Here's a great song from the soundtrack.

This is a vintage-retro look, I was inspired by 70s/80s images from my family's photo album. My mother said that the quality of the film was not very good, so that over time the photos turned yellowish-brown. I actually really like this look, so I decided to make an action for it.

Gives a blue tint. I usually use it for photos that are way too yellow, just lowering and adjusting the opacity of this curves layer to my taste (to give a more "serious" look).

Since Tumblr slideshow didn't transfer (for some odd reason), have a merry little repost.

Gah, it's been a long process. Yes sir, indeed. Flickr, Livejournal, Wordpress, Tumblr, Wordpress again...and now Blogger. Somewhere in August (14th?) was my 1-year Tumblr anniversary. After 1 year I still haven't grown to love Tumblr. I mean, it's nice, but not exactly what I've been searching for. So, I took some time and exported my Tumblr blog to Blogger. I hope I don't have to move again because it sure is a pain :)
Now, about the header - yes, I know it says "Lightroom presets" and I also know that there are no Lightroom presets to be found. Yet! I have some old ones but I'm also working on new ones as well. I'll upload them as soon as possible.

A progress photo. All three images were small panoramas. In our summer cottage before a huge thunderstorm last week. First there was a dark cloud and then, I guess you could say, the sky transformed into Mars. I’ve only slightly increased the contrast of these images, nothing major. And as far as I could see, the sky really was that abnormal shade of red.
On a personal note, I’ve had a blast watching Hitchcock’s movies this summer (no, not birds&psychoomg).
Perfect murder? I think I believe in that.

Oleviste church/Tallinn - Vanalinn/Old town
Lesson learned: cobblestone roads and 15-year-old bicycles with various loose parts don’t mix and match.
So to anyone that happened to *hear* me passing by today…sorry ;D

I bought a Smena 8M over a year ago, my mother gave me an old film (expired like a 2-year-old bread) and I started taking photos. I wasn’t sure how the photos would turn out, so I just snapped random shots whenever I had it with me. Today I finally got the photos (on a CD+paper) and I am f-ing amazed. Although very basic, it’s still a brilliant device. I have 2 images to showcase (other stuff was great too but my framing sucked).

I have no excuses, these are common photos these days ;D

Hepatica. I might upload more…just because I took 1000 photos of them.

So, for the first time this year I went riding with my bicycle. A stupid idea because the bog was unpassable. Snow. Everywhere.
Luckily the water and the ground underneath it was pretty interesting, very colorful. I took some reflection shots (second photo had some oil in the water & the first one has no extra texture added although it might seem so).

She’s gone.
I can’t imagine life without her…She was my everything.

Doesn’t look like much but the name pretty much says it all. Results: not very detailed black, a bit blurry with a slight vintage-toning.
