Feeling pensive

The 1st of January this year, I moved in here at Blogger. I wrote a lot about it -- pondering the pros and cons -- probably bored my readers half to death in the process.

I'll be honest right off the bat, I can admit a mistake ... don't think I'm a lesser person for that. Mistake isn't the right word either ... it was a choice and I feel now that I should have chosen differently.

Didn't take long before I felt that I missed WordPress. Not necessarily because of the comment system, but rather the sense of community that exists there ... the ease, with which I can find other bloggers with similar interests ... the photo challenge ... the user-friendly interface ... I could make the list much longer, but I'm not the sales person for WordPress.

I'm writing this now, because I've come to the realization that I can't maintain two blogs and I belong in WordPress regardless of what I said in the beginning of the year.

I may or may not bring this domain name with me there, but I don't have to think about that today ... I can think about it another day.

If you have the time, inclination and most of all ... patience ... you could visit the WP site: Fluffy Flurries.

Digital Art

Lately, I've tried to, once again, learn a little about Photoshop. I read tutorials online that look appealing to me and this morning I found a nice one. They call it 'digital art', and that might raise the eternal question; «What is Art?» Is it art because I've learnt how to carry out a few commands in Photoshop [or whatever programme]? Perhaps it is *shrug* ... after all, I choose the colours and I play around with those commands until I find it pleasing to my eye.

Either way, here are two examples -- one is made from a sunset the other night, the other, more blue-ish one is from a lovely evening in Härnösand last Fall.
