After two rapid months of warm and cold summer days in Lithuania, I am back. All summer I imagined to myself that the weather here will be miserable, I was counting on the worst. Luckily it isn't as bad as it could be. This summer was the warmest for Ireland in years, and it sure isn't ending this August. Not yet anyway.
My cousin Veronica is really like a traveller at this stage. She and her family have come to visit us in Ireland, from Israel, to Lithuania, to Ireland. That is a hectic way to spend your summer holidays abroad! I was over the moon about that anyway. I get to see my beloved cousin for another week, before we don't see each other for a whole year. I should start planning on visiting them in Israel sometime soon, that would be cool.
Now I believe I should say something about what exactly this post is about.
My cousin and I decided to have another photoshoot. A location I've had in my mind for a while are the woods that are right next to my house. It's a really cool place with interesting geographical features. In places, it has large emtpy spaces spanning from very low ground to very high ground. All covered by trees.
That same day we bought a shirt which was on sale in Topman and it suited the surroundings extremely well. We were so lucky with that purchase.
Something that we were very eager to achieve was beautiful bokeh. A blurred background with unfocused circles of light looks so pretty, and it suits 'fashion' shoots like this one (even though it only featured one piece of clothing). I figured out how to get nice bokeh completely by accident. What I did was walk far away from the subject being photographed, and zoom in to achieve a blurred background.
All the photos have been edited with Photoshop Lightroom by me.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures! I have more posts planned out, they will be posted soon.
