If you find yourself asking yourself (and your friends), “Am I really a writer? Am I really an artist?” chances are you are. The counterfeit innovator is wildly self-confident. The real one is scared to death. Steven Pressfield – The War of Art I’m sorting through little bits of paper scraps around here at the […]

This moment is enough
Be happy in the moment, that’s enough. Each moment is all we need, not more. Mother Teresa I adore my phone’s camera because it is with me all the time, every moment, to capture the moment… As I come home I notice that the many-coloured rose is covered in pearls of water… Related PostsPlanning for […]
Inspired at the Haberdashery
Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. Steve Jobs Have you […]
A Beautiful Midsummer Weekend
When it felt like summer was just about to start, there was Midsummer (this past Friday) – telling us that half of what we in Sweden call summer has already passed… Related PostsArtist Date at Hornsgatspuckeln Weekly inspiration: Stockholm and Swedish authors Höga kusten Blue and Yellow Spring is my favorite season
The Pink Flower Mission
A Photo Project often start with one simple idea that spark your interest. The idea does not have to be genius or innovative, but it has to be something that interest you enough that you want to return to it from time to time (or else it won’t become a project). Ideas that I am […]
Video | Creativity on Instagram
I’m @iHannas on instagram, are you following me on instagram yet? One of the things I really enjoyed in 2013 was posting photos to my instagram account. Right now I’ve been in a rut, but probably it is because it is so dark around (a.k.a the Swedish Winter months) these parts right now, so taking […]

Instagram Midsummer Weekend
I’ve written before about being creative with your smart phone. This weekend I’ve been experimenting with using the photo app Instagram. Above all it’s a community, much like flickr.com but on your phone. You snap a photo, choose one of the filters to apply to it (to change the colours of your photo to make […]
Photo project | Documenting today for tomorrow
Today is A Day in Life Photo Project, and I’m participating. I’m so excited! This is what its about: It’s called Aday.org, and this project was initiated by the Swedish foundation Expressions of Humankind (which supports scientific research and education centered around the photographic image and the written word). They’re asking the world’s inhabitants (you!) […]
Creative Photography with a Smart Phone
I’ve had my smart phone, a HTC wildfire, since last year and I really enjoy some of its features… I started playing with a few simple free games (like TouchBlock etc) and I still play, sometimes when I’m feeling stressed (just to empty my brain), but more and more I’m using my smart phone for […]
How to find Found Faces + bookreview
Do you ever notice unexpected faces in your surrounding? If not, you will after reading this super cute photography book called Found Faces. I really love this book! It’s filled to the brim with faces that jumps at you (in a friendly way!), or sometimes slowly emerges as you find eyes and then maybe… is […]
Winter is my favorite season
The streets are made of ice and the trees are still partly hidden in snow. Spring feels far away but when the sun comes out it makes everything a little brighter even when it is -14 degrees Celsius (6.8 Fahrenheit) outside. When I take my mittens off to snap a photo with my cell phone […]
