Another TFP shooting, this time with the impressively talented and beautiful @allesclair Honestly, I pretty much didn't have to say anything at all and almost every time I pressed the shutter she had a new stunning look on her face. . . . #photography #modelphotography #model #lace #girl #woman #nikonphotography #Nikon #nikonnofilter #naturallight #naturallightphotography #portraitphotography #portrait #portraitstream #alltheoceanblues https://www.instagram.com/p/CEGuVjBArEA/?igshid=1eun0ewm6gvhy

This is one of my favourite pictures ever---of the ones I've taken, is course. I took it when traveling along the #vildsvinshegn the fence the Danish government had built along the Danish-German border for a while day. . . . #westküste #Nordsee #photography #Photo #Fotografie #fence #Moin #moon #beacon #Coast #Nikon #nikonphotography #d5 #peoplephotography #people #photojournalism #nikonnofilter https://www.instagram.com/p/CCRbteQgXCM/?igshid=ftgk4bg1opad

#fridaysforfuture Sadly I couldn't make it to the deliberations today, but this is from the last demo. I was so amazed by this young person and her aura! . . . #photography #photojournalism #demo #demonstration #future #youth #climate #climatechange #Flensburg #people #peoplephotography #Nikon #nikonphotography #portraitphotography #portraitstream #portrait #bokeh https://www.instagram.com/p/CCMZp6KpetI/?igshid=1dcor1g67ktdv

Today I had a family photoshooting at the beach. The weather was grand and the family I got to shoot did an awesome job. When scouting about the location in order to find the pictures beforehand, I came across this wonderful view. Can you guess, what the hole in the foreground is? . . . #photography #Nikon #nikonphotography #d5 #photojournalism #photograph #travel #travelphotography #boat #ship #sea #seaside #nature #naturephotography #tourism #beach #water #Ostsee #Strand #Fotografie #view #mare #balticsea #sailing #sailboat #bullauge https://www.instagram.com/p/CBq_QSgppjK/?igshid=1eiw60gqqgog3

This picture is from a demonstration against outlawing "dangerous" dog breeds in Denmark. I don't want to take sides in this battle, since those dog breeds definitely run a higher risk of being aggressive, but that only happens when they're not trained and kept correctly... What I can definitely say though: if the dogs are lucky enough to get a competent owner, they can be some of the most loving creatures ever! . . . #newsphotographer #newsphotography #photojournalism #photography #photo #photographer #demo #demonstration #dog #dogs #dogstagram #pitbull #hubdelov #hund #hunde #hundefotografie #child #children #animal #Nikon #nikonphotography #animalphotography #doglovers #doglove #doglover https://www.instagram.com/p/CBjLEBGJQGm/?igshid=10znv627h7cdr

meaning

I. debt

i say "it's not fair" i say "i deserve to" but i do not deserve.

i do not deserve, nor do i owe.

nature does not know debt. life does not know debt. the tree does not deserve for that it grew the vixen does not owe for what she slew

i do not owe nor do i deserve and yet i say "it is not fair"

II. wanting

"i want to," i correct myself i want to say "i need to" but i need as much as i deserve and i deserve all that i need

"i want to" because life is wanting i want to deserve. i want to owe. i want to mean. debt gives meaning. we search for meaning in unkonwn debts.

meaning trickles down my cheek seeps into the ground

menial less than menial meaning less meaningless

i want and thus i take for want is all i have want is all i am wont to want want to want

so i correct myself: "i want to"

III. meaning

when my wanting ends i seep into the ground to lie there with my meaning

Today I made a batch of badgers. I wanted to draw an animal, compare what I’d do with gouache to what I’d do with watercolour, and try a new sketchbook. The result: The sketchbook acts weirdly with watercolour, gets all spotty (cf. first badger) and I really have to practice gouache a lot more. It’s such a different style than watercolour.

“vain”

Gouache painting with watercolour background.

I want to practice painting skin tones. This was my second attempt; the first one went straight to hell. It’s gouache on (rather cheap) watercolour paper, which I bought just in order to practice without feeling that I’m wasting good paper.

[ninijura]

Watercolour and pencil doublespread from my sketchbook.

Prompt: Ill proportioned animals.

[ninijura]

Prompt: Any kind of shell. So I drew a girlshell. Or a pearlshell, if you think she’s that precious.

I started this a week ago, laid down the first 2-3 washes... And gave up. I didn't like how undefined everything looked and thought I couldn't get to what I wanted either way. Today I decided to try working in it again, and it turned out much better than I had dared to hope. #painting #art #watercolour #watercolor #monochrome #green #nature #trees https://www.instagram.com/p/BujWOb0nahe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dw1a4asnx28m

Today’s challenge was to redraw something from earlier in the challenge. This i my redrawing of the anglerfish. I’m almost happy with it, but it still has some flaws.

Did some sketching of dumb animals while walking my dog. The big paws didn't really pan out, but I like the other two. #animal #animals #cartoon #comic #drawing #sketch #sketching #sketchbook #art #design https://www.instagram.com/p/BugusVGnd1Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ufistg74ob8t
