I discovered a new festival for me. It's called the Viru Folk Festival and it's held in Käsmu, a lovely little seaside village in Northen Estonia. It was my first time in the festival and in Käsmu. And honestly - I was completely blown away by how cute and beautiful everything was.  I was also testing my new lens, Nikkor 18-140mm, which I got on the same day I went to Käsmu. It's not anything special, but it's price and...

Something from this year's Folk Music Festival in Viljandi. I didn't take as many photos as I thought I would, because I bought a new lens just a few days before the festival. And it turned out to be a total bunch of no good. Eventually I took it back, cancelled the deal and had to go to Viljandi with my trustworthy 18-55mm kit lens... So I was really bummed out about the whole situation and I wasn't really trying.  This...

Last weekend I visited a really cool festival that was held in Northen Tallinn, in a subdistrict called Kalamaja (Fish House). Years ago, Kalamaja was in a really bad shape, but now real estate companies have fixed the place up and many young & cool people live in Kalamaja. Tiny wooden houses, green gardens, bicycles, artists, musicians, thrift shops... You can read more about Kalamaja in HERE.  I think...

I haven't mentioned it, but I absolutely love good food and over the recent years I've grown really fond of food photography too. Since my BF is a cook, we sometimes work together at home: we find a new & interesting recipe, he cooks & bakes and then I take pictures of the result. We're proud food blog owners too.  Here are some of my favourite photos of dishes we've done. I know these aren't very fancy and...

I haven't taken any Important and Artsy photos during this winter. Mostly because I just didn't feel like creating anything and I was quite busy with my health (I started to do workouts again, yay!). I also wanted to continue with some random blog-challenge where you have to take photos of things you like/hate/want to do before you die etc. So I decided to put more energy into that project. I'm still not sure if I should post...

I know, this is another cat photo, but...  The main reason I'm posting it, is because this was the first really sharp photo that I managed to take with my Jupiter lens. Before that all my photos we kind of blurry and I was kind of losing hope of ever getting good at using those lenses.  Getting stuff really in focus with Jupiter and Helios is still a bit of a struggle, but I can say that I'm finally getting...

One month ago today we decided that it's time to take new pet rats. Our last one - Jackie - died almost nine months ago. My boyfriend and I really love rats, so there was kind of an empty space in our lives without those little fur-balls. They are Tucker and Dale. The names come from a very funny movie called "Tucker & Dale vs Evil".  This is what they looked a month ago. Now they are much bigger, stronger and...

Year has passed again. Today I turned 26 years old. Luckily, I still look kind of young. :) Decided that I hadn't taken any nice self-portraits for a long time, so this is it - my birthday self-portraits.  Click on the pictures to see bigger photos with better quality. 30.10.2013 Tallinn...

Some pretty random shots taken at the light festival called "Light walks in Kadriorg" in Kadriorg park. It was quite difficult to get really good quality pictures in night-time with a kit lens, but I'm still happy.  Click to see the bigger photos with better quality.  Valgus kõnnib Kadriorus Kadriorg park, Tallinn 20th of September 2013...
