Happy Easter, friends I hope your weekend will be filled with sunshine, loved ones, good food & some sweet relaxation That’s exactly what I’ll be filling mine with, alongside dedicating time to my botanical photo-art. I’m still aiming to launch some new motifs this month, but after facing technical issues with my editing program & taking on extra client work, I’m a bit behind my own schedule. So, this weekend, I’m focusing on bringing some of my ongoing projects closer to completion Pictured here are my tulips of last year ~ I tried to plant 15 tulip bulbs for the first time & every single one bloomed I adored them all so much that last autumn I went all in & planted over a hundred tulip bulbs, so I am very excited to see what’s to come soon . . . . #botanical #botanicalart #botanicalphotography #tulips #tulipseason #tulipsofinstagram #flowerphotography #flowersofinstagram #gardenphotography #plantsofinstagram #springvibes #springflowers #naturephotography #greenery #naturelovers #gardeninglife #plantlover #floralphotography #creativeprocess #artinprogress #artjourney #photographyart #creativejourney #artisticexpression #tulpaner #trädgårdinorr #trädgårdsinspiration #gladpåsk #happyeaster #easter

I still can’t believe this is what we were blessed with almost every night of our first trip with the van It was purely magical to watch the Northern lights surrounded by those majestic mountains & the almighty Atlantic Ocean Swipe to see the epic campingspot we found on our first night in Lofoten that time . . . . #northernlights #lofotenislands #ocean #naturelovers #vanlifeadventures #northernlightsphotography #lofotenmagic #naturemagic #mountainmagic #travelphotography #travelnordic #nordicadventures #exploremore #naturelovers #vanlifeexplorers #nordicnature #canonnordic #roadtrippin #wildcamping #thegreatoutdoors #northernwonders #auroraborealis #landscapephotography #adventureawaits #visitnorway #norway #lofoten

It’s my favorite kind of morning, when I find them sleeping just outside the kitchen window as I make my coffee I’m so happy they feel safe here with us, like they just naturally belong. Like it’s totally normal for a herd of deer to co-live with six cats, a wild Italian rastaman & his wild Swedish redhead Somehow, it all makes perfect sense out here & I wouldn’t have it any other way . . . #WildlifeAtHome #wildlifephotography #coexistingwithwildlife #nordicnature #naturemagic #forestmagic #fairylife #naturälskare #skandinavisknatur #magicalmorning #deerinthewild #ourbackyardwildlife #canonr7 #canonnordic #canoneurope #canonphotography #naturephotography #natureconnection #livingwithnature #magicalmoments #quietinthewild #swedishcountryside #intothewild #forestsanctuary #wildsouls #gardenwildlife #slowmorningmagic #arcticlife #creativeforestlife #lifeinnature

Oh, to stand on a beach in Lofoten and watch Aurora dance above the ocean Dreaming about this special paradise so often It has such a raw, wild, outer-worldly beauty & magic. On a snowy April day like this, I just can’t wait to get the chance to take the van & surfboard & treat myself to some Lofoten-magic . . . . #northernlights #auroraborealis #chasinglights #auroramagic #dancinglights #magicalnights #underthenorthernlights #ocean #mothernature #mountainsandsea #naturetherapy #rawnature #earthfocus #mothernaturemagic #coastline_lovers #visitnorway #lofotenislands #lofotenlove #arcticvibes #arcticlife #soulplaces #canonnordic #canon_photos #landscape_lover #atlanticocean

Soon, so soon, hepaticas will be blooming here by the Arctic Circle too I have both single & double-flowering varieties in my forest garden, and they’re all so magical Which one do you prefer, double or single-flowering? And do you think I should add any of these photographs to my Botanical Photo-art collection ~ which one would look best on a wall? I’m currently working through thousands of macro & landscape shots from last year, and oh, what a feeling it is! It’s like finishing a series of half-painted canvases, if I were a painting artist New pieces will be launched on my webshop later this month ~ stay tuned for new Photo-art honoring nature’s magic . . . #botanicalart #hepatica #blåsippor #naturemagic #naturelovers #forestgarden #gardeninspiration #photoart #artphotography #fineartphotography #artlovers #artcollectors #naturephotography #nordicnature #springvibes #botanicalbeauty #flowerpower #magicofnature #visualpoetry #contemporaryphotography #artforsale #nordicartist #canonnordic #fotografnorrbotten #norrlandmagic #macroandflora #macromood #macro_brilliance #macro_perfection #macrooftheday

My beloved Stella turned 4 last week! She was born on the Equinox of 2021, my magical little companion. We do everything together, her and I. Ever since she came to us, she’s slept right by my chest every single night And she’s always with me when I’m working in the garden, and often when I’m at my home office desk, cooking, eating, reading, etc. We also enjoy daily walks to the creek in the forest together, and if I’m too busy one day, she encourages me by standing on the path, looking deeply at me! Oh, my wonderful little Stella, how much I love you!! Do you have a special cat who just brightens up your days? Let me know & spread some cat-love in the comments . . . #selfportraitwithcat #cats_of_instagram #catpeople #cats_of_world #catwoman #cats #katterpåinsta #kattliv #katt #kattporträtt #catportrait #animallovers #animalloversofinstagram #animals #animal #lifewithcats #catsdaily #beautifulcats #norrbotten #fotografnorrbotten #fairy #fairycore #fairylife #fairytale

This morning with Elvira, one of the residents of my forest fairytale garden reminded me that ~ The more time we take to connect with nature’s creatures, the more we deepen our understanding of its magic #WildlifeAtHome #NatureMagic #NaturMagi #naturehealing #nature #naturelovers #naturelife #wildlifephotographer #natgeoanimal #natgeo #natgeoyourshotphotographer #natgeowildlife #natgeomyshot #wildlifephotography #wildlife #wildlifeart #wildlifelovers #wildlifeig #fairylife #squirrelsofinstagram #fotografnorrbotten #fotografi #naturfotograf #natur #överkalix #norrbotten #norrlandmagic #wildlifeconnection #reconnectwithnature #connectwithnature

Thursdays fullmoon rise at 1600mm While we couldn’t watch the eclipse from Polar circle land this time, the fullmoon rise was nothing but magical And wow, what powerful energy it brought!

Sedan 2021 har jag blivit tillfrågad att hålla fotokurser i samarbete med @sv_norrbotten i Pajala, Haparanda och Kalix någon gång per år. Jag känner mig hedrad varje gång ~ jag hade aldrig trott att jag kunde lära ut fotografering (trots att jag fotograferat dagligen i mer än halva mitt liv & professionellt de senaste tio åren) därför att fotografering är ett hantverk man aldrig blir riktigt fullärd inom, det finns alltid något nytt att lära & utveckla. Men en riktig ‘gamechanger’ för mig var när min mor lärde mig att lära mig att fotografera i manuellt läge. Det gav mig nyckeln till frihet inom fotografering, och därför bestämde jag mig för att göra just detta till fokuset på mina fotokurser. Att dela den kunskapen har varit otroligt givande ~ det är magiskt att se deltagarna förstå samspelet mellan slutartid, bländare & ISO och verkligen bli bästa vän med sin kamera! Och nu är det dags för fotokurs igen! Den 26 april håller jag en lördags-kurs i samarbete med @sv_kalix . Ingen erfarenhet krävs ~ kursen är öppen för alla! Svep för att se några av mina bilder från tidigare kurser & läsa vad några utav tidigare deltagare har sagt om mina fotokurser ~ och gå in på deras konton & kolla på deras magiska bilder @katarinabjorkman @johanna_funck @tornedalsfoton Se alla detaljer om kursen på den sista bilden! Välkommen med er anmälan, alla som är intresserade :) 5 platser är redan bokade så det finns endast 5 platser kvar skicka DM för att boka er plats idag!

These days, it feels a lot like spring when the sun is shining, but the nighttime temperatures are still very much winter here, by the Arctic Circle. . It is, as we say around here, spring-winter, our 5th season Do you have spring yet, wherever in the world you are? . . . . #NatureLovers #IntoTheWild #WildNature #ExploreNature #NaturePerfection #WildernessCulture #NatureVibes #HealingWithNature #NatureWisdom #LookDeepIntoNature #NatureIsMedicine #ReconnectWithNature #winterriver #ForestTherapy #NaturePhotography #SnowyLandscapes #WinterMagic #ScenicViews #LandscapeLovers #ExploreTheOutdoors #NatureCommunity #OutdoorPassion #ScenicEscape #NatureExplorers #EarthLover #NatureIsCalling #Natur #Nature #Springwinter #vårvinter

Siberian Jay visiting my garden in the magical spring light Did you know that in Nordic folklore, the Siberian Jay was said to be sent by the Skogsrå (female forest spirit/guardian) to warn about dangers with their unique calls? Back in the day, if Nordic hunters saw a Siberian Jay, they would just turn around, knowing the animals had already been warned. (Source @folkminnen website) Have you ever heard a jay’s call echoing through the trees? . . . #WildlifeAtHome #Lavskrika #SiberianJay #NordicFolklore #WildlifeProtection #NatureMagic #BirdLovers #BirdPhotography #NatureInspiration #Folklore #Nordic #raw_nordic #ForestGuardians #forestlover #forest #earthcapture #wildlifephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotographer #wildlifephotographybird #natur #norrbotten #fotografnorrbotten #överkalix #natgeoyourshot #natgeowildlife #natgeowild #natgeoanimal #natgeophotography #naturephotography
