Welcome to

Monica Johansson and NatureFootstep.com

I am interested in nature photography and photo art and travels
as much as I can to find new areas to document.
I have many blogs and below you find links to them.

Travel tree and music

Click image to enlarge!

This is an image from Morocco. I was inside a market place so it got blurred because it was dark. I took it to Photo shop and enhanced it with a filter. I think you can call it Impressionist photo.
I like to go through old travel images. Here and there I find something useful :)

Whimsical Tree Goddess, finished, I think! Canvas 31x40 cm. Acrylics
I did not want a large black space at the bottom so I let her skirt flow out so the background is visible. This exercise was good and I, kind of, like the finished one. BUT, I clearly need more practise to teach my hand and arm how to paint curves :)

I think I will call this one "Louis Armstrong"
It is painted on an OLD record with Louis music on. I bought the record in a second hand store. I don´t dare tell my sister. She liked the old music. :) Well, could not play it anyway. It was 78rm
I used a colander for the pour. Tempera color. The record soaked up a lot of paint. :)

Summer is closing in but we need much more rain where I live. I hope everyone are safe from drought and flooding.

Frozen flowers

From this...

I was defrosting my frezer a week ago and found the flowers I put in for freezing in a glass container about a year ago and then forgot. Took the ice out and took some shots. They are still in the glass container and that one became frosted and added a texture to the ice.

..... to "Deep freeze"

Using several editing softwares and filters and a lot of other stuff, I came up with "Deep Freeze"

Edit: I was asked why I froze the flowers in the first place. I have done it before with christmas cactus but this time it was a man, Bruce Boyd, that froze the flowers and then cracked the ice that made me do it. You can see some of it HERE. I have not cracked my ice yet :)

Think this would look a little like impressionist art.

Trying something Impressionist. Have done something like this before but did not know it was an artistic "style". I´m not educated in art. Just do what I feel the image should become.

For this photo I focused the camera on the moon, pressed the trigger button to half to keep focus and then moved the moon into place between the branches of a tree. Tricky, but it worked.
