INGRID KJELLING @inqrid - Tumblr Blog

Hello Tumblr. It's been a while!

Lot's of exciting things have happened with my photography since I last posted here - now a couple of years ago. One of them is my new found interest for night photography. This is one of my newest photos from my trip back home to Norway this winter.

9 months after, I'm ready to start blogging again

The reason I stopped blogging on tumblr in the first place was mainly because I felt that my blog didn't reach out to the 'right' people. The majority of my followers have always been 14 year old kids who think tumblr is a 'popularity contest'. My easy snap-shots of beaches and such was always heaps more popular than the photos I actually put more effort into. This made my photography to develop in the totally wrong direction and I lost a lot of confidence.

After I joined Google+, where I got feedback and could communicate with serious photographers, I finally got my photography on the right track again. I got inspired and I finally felt that I was developing my photography skills.

Today, 9 months after I walked away from tumblr, I feel that I am ready to come back to blog on this platform. I'm gonna start off fresh. I want to share tips and tricks I learn on my path to becoming a better photographer. Share photos I've taken but also snap shots that I'm not able to share on my google+/facebook page. (Yes, I am very quality before quantity on those pages) This blog will hopefully be a platform where I can share more. I've learnt a lot in the last few months, but I still got heaps to learn. I don't care if this blog get 1 follower or a 1000, as long as my work can inspire a couple of others I'm more than happy
