Even if I live and grew up in a major city, the proximity of nature has always felt like one of the things that make a place feel like home. Although there is not much nature that is untouched around Stockholm, we are still lucky enough to have a national park just around the corner. Sometimes, by leaving out the noise and the distraction and focusing on a simple detail, I realize that the essence of what I'm longing for is just around the corner.

A sunset in Yosemite National Park gives the perfect backdrop for dramatic silhouettes. I caught this guy walking in just the right spot, where it looked like he was kicking the moon. I then asked him to see if he could pose a bit more in that spot, but the first, unintentional picture was the best in the end.

@photoconic_love is my new Instagram feed. @iamsherise.photography is my older feed when I started out. It is rusty but I'd love to have you on either or both! :) If you want to request any photos from there to be uploaded here for commercial use, I'd be happy to do that!

Sunset at Clingman's Dome, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennesee, USA. This is an older shot from a trip down to the Smokies quite a few years ago. The sky really lit up that evening with color, but I struggled to find a good composition from the top of Clingman's Dome. I ended up trying to use some of the nearby trees to frame the colorful sky above.

Going in a more urban direction this time. Walking through the Brunkeberg Tunnel in the heart of Stockholm. Lines, circles, lights, metal, concrete comes together in an urban spectacle that we miss in our everyday hurry.

This photo was taken in Furnas, São Miguel. This area is knows for its geothermal activity, the village center is full of holes with boiling water and if you touch the ground everything is warm. On top of that the colors of the earth make you feel like you're in another world.

Exploring an ice cave for the first time in my life was an incredible experience! Walking over 1000 year old ice, in the middle of one of the biggest glacier of Europe make me feel so small but you feel inside the earth and part of a cycle. An experience that enforce the sense of respect we must have about environment.

I somehow wanted to allow my pain and loss to take over any sense of joy or peace I felt. I wanted to give more space to my pain so that I can validate it, and somehow feel better through it.But I know that won’t work.So I decided I’m going to take time out of my day today to reminisce on this painful year no matter the emotions that will surface, allow myself to dig deep, and see all the good that came to me.I learned that no matter how much I’m struggling, I can snap out of my pain momentarily and be there for someone else.I learned how selfless I can be.In the darkest moments of my life.

Our newest family member, yet to be named. He is a senior rescue, maybe 10 years old. His voice is adorable. He sounds like a broken squeaky toy. He weighs less than 5 pounds and was found as a stray. He is a Chihuahua.

From the Oh Tilly series "Creative Workspace", this is one of my favourite images because of the shallow depth of field and that adorable #hashtag mug (one of my faves for a morning coffee). There's a local pottery guy, his name is Devil, and he sells these little pots at the Sunday markets. I am so addicted to his pieces and to supporting his business that I pick up more than one every week. My husband rolls his eyes every time, but I've seen him pick them up and admire them. ;)

I took this shot while vacationing in Disney World with my wife. Epcot has always been my favorite park due to the magnificent architecture that represents several regions of the world. The Epcot ball is one of the most recognizable pieces of architecture at Disney World and at night it lights up with beautiful vibrant colors. I wanted to capture this moment where the geometric shape and the color all came together! I used a Sony a7rii with a 35mm 1.4 lens with an ISO of 2500 and shutter speed of 1/125.

I was walking to the station to catch a train home after a long day when I noticed that the sun, as it was setting, had perfectly singled out this one building across the river. Everything else around me had already entered into the blue haze of the early moments of the night except this one building. It stuck out to me as remarkably beautiful.

I recently had the fortune to visit my dream country of Japan. This photo was taken when I visited the city of Kyoto. Kyoto has that New Olde vibe that other cities do not possess. Bustling with countless shrines and the famous Gion district, visiting Kyoto is truly a memorable experience. I took the picture in the famous and crowded Ninenzaka neighborhood alley. Just drop down from Kiyomizu-dera, you will soon find Sanenzaka before reaching Ninenzaka. Along both neighborhoods you will find yourself surrounded with Japanese shops and picturesque cherry blossoms (in the right season)

I have a habit of stopping strangers in the street and giving them compliments (hey RAOK make the world a happier place) and I spotted a lady wearing these incredible earrings last year. I told her how fantastic she looked and that I loved her earrings and they matched her very quirky, beautiful sense of style. She was so taken back that she took them out of her ears and insisted that I keep them. Out of all the earrings in my vast collections, these are my fave because they brought joy into the lives of two women that day.

We walked for a couple of kilometers on the Great Wall of China and that felt like a lot of walking. The Wall is thousands of kilometers long. I don't think a single human can understand the sheer magnitude of this incredible thing, yet we were somehow able to build it.

I visited Morro Rock at December, 2018. It was little cold that time and the sun went down behind the rock. The cold air from inland casted a blue color and the sun filled with golden color. Some kids played surfing on beach brought more vibrant into the scene.

Shaving with a single blade safety razor takes a little more time in the morning, but it’s worth it. It’s a ritual that wakes you and calms you all at the same time. I created this razor to be an inspiring beginning to any day. Find out more about it at https://getsupply.com.

January 2006, a cold winter’s day with unique cloud formations. Too thick and visible - indeed buoyed by moonlight, night clouds were like day clouds that night. These photos are part of a series exploring night skies with moon prominence. Shots were taken during January 2006 on a Canon 1D Mk2, in Istanbul over Bosphorus skies.

I pulled out my Banana-grams game and put this together for the final week of our A-Z Photo Challenge. With “Zebra” , “Unsplash” and “The” “End”. I took a bunch of shots like this until I realized I spelled it “Unslash”, I was missing the p. So I added that back in and took a bunch more.

International Woman’s Day

This is my submission for International Women’s Day. You see this image told a completely different story before, but something I never forgot about was the secondary story that crept into my mind and would stay there for when the time was right. The time is now perfect. While the original story we told was to do with manipulation for ones own personal gain as seen by the expression on the background model’s face, I realised this image could also tell the story of empowering others. And more specifically in this case, women empowering other women which I saw as a great strength!

M51 through 127mm/952mm FL telescope for 9:55 of total exposure from 8600’ in CO. Located an estimated 23 - 36 million light years from Earth, M51 is approximately 30,000 light years across and home to an estimated 100 billion stars. It’s an interesting target due to its interaction with a dwarf elliptical galaxy, which it appears to be cannibalizing, but with the use of the Hubble astronomers have determined that the dwarf galaxy is actually behind M51. There is still interaction, though, and the dwarf galaxy’s gravitational forces have created areas of great star formation in M51.

Going for the dramatic ‘going to war’ vibe in this shot. If you’ve ever had to do this you understand that position. We’ve got 50 inches of snow in the last 25 Days. Largest month on record. And yes those driveway drifts are actually that high. A good usable stock shot for a practice that’s very common this time of year.

The weather was really nice that day and really warm which is not that common at the beginning of November in Germany. The Eibsee is one of my favorite spots in the alps and always worth a visit. If there is no wind you can get awesome reflections in the lake.

This was a typical house. It was an old house in the old city. A young man bought this house, and it was reborn as a wonderful place. There’s no one who doesn’t know this place right now. Interesting. It’s very nice to know that old buildings can breathe again.

I decided to use my storage unit as a photo studio because I pay way too much into it each month and think that I should get more out of it. This was one of 4 projects that I did this past week. The rest included a lot of stop motion and reverse vids. Gotta love creative inspiration.

It has always been a dream to travel to Micronesia, but it’s a whole other story to get the opportunity to go, and dive the biggest graveyard of WWII ships in the world. The place I am speaking of is Chuck Lagoon of the Federated States of Micronesia, located about 1,000km south east from Guam on the Pacific Ocean. This is the remains of one of the merchant ships that sunk during Operation Hailstorm that took place in 1944.

I’ve been visiting this part of the California coastline since before I can remember. Every year my parents would take my siblings and I camping in the redwoods just a few miles away from this very stretch of Hwy 1. I still come back to this place whenever I get a chance, it’s just too beautiful and too full of fond memories to stay away for long. This morning was my first time visiting with a drone, and it was an incredible experience getting to see this place that I love from a new perspective

When I was a little kid, I dreamed I’m in a church with tall black walls. I was a prisoner cause I could see no windows or doors and I was lost between too many chairs around me!‌ I remember turning my head and there were two girls that were calling my name. I stepped towards them. On of them grabbed me and pulled me to herself. She circled her arms around me and I was ready to kiss her. I got closer and then suddenly I realized she has no face! It freaked me out. I jumped back and fell on a chair. Then they took their knives out and attacked me to rip my face off.

All the series that I make are related to water, I give my feeling in all my series, relate to all my experiences, water as a visual medium for bold my statement about “beautiful in pain”. I use the changing light of day to arouse the mood of my dreams, I describe the pool as a part of my fantasy. I like the situation under the water, it feels peaceful, even though it’s tight. making peace with our own sins is one way to solve the problem.

I love elegant and minimal images, and I am inspired by like-minded feeds on Instagram. Also, I love anything that involves florals. Every week I purchase flowers from Trader Joes and practice my photography skills shooting them. Usually, I incorporate props from around the home. They can be anything simple from a piece of fabric or little plates I’ve gathered etc. To shoot the images I generally style the items I’ll be using in front/on some foam board. Also, natural light is a must!

Festivals are the greatest place for reports photographer. It is always unique atmosphere. Of course it is unique moods of people and great colorful emotions. For this festival is like time-traveling. Going through you fall deeper and deeper. And there is no end. Each time is brilliant. It is very inspired and inspiring people who love their work and that they do.

Last weekend I made the long drive to Bathurst to watch the 12 hour GT race that comes on once a year. Every year they close a public road that drives around a mountain to host a 12 hour endurance race. This year is my third year and I was blown away with the quality of cars that were there.

There’s nothing like a Michigan beach in my book. The sand is thick and grainy, perfect for afternoon drip castles that can last all day. Seagulls sing for hours, driftwood begs you to find a crafty project, and friends dot the sand without it feeling crowded. Bring a towel, a book, and your best shades because you’re going to be here for a while. Even on overcast days, this is the place to be.

The Făgăraș mountains had quite a show going on during a splitboarding and avalanche training session in the Bâlea area. The mix of colours was surreal during this sunset, we could only stare for the whole very few minutes that the colour show lasted.
