It's certainly been a while since my last journal post. There have been soo many things going on in my life the last period here both bad things and good things. Now finally when I've had summer holidays for a little while, I can now get back on here as well. Probably not as much as I used to, but maybe

My design business, XLD Studios has been flourishing and I've been getting a lot of new design and hosting clients, this even caused me to have to upgrade to a second server now.

My media site, Bernskiold Media with my blog is also running very good and getting more visitors than ever, and I'm going to be releasing a training DVD on Photoshop Elements for sale at a local store (so in Swedish, sorry guys).

What there haven't been a lot of lately has been my photography. I haven't had much time to get out shooting even though I wished. Plus a lot of times the weather during the springtime has just sucked.

Where I am sitting right now though, at the beautiful islands of Koster in the middle of a week long vacation, I'm out shooting about twice a day and have a lot of them already. I'm going to be posting up a few of them here as well now so consider me back!

Oh also, I've added a new lens to my arsenal, the 90mm Tamron ƒ/2.8 Di Macro. It's a true beauty of a macro lens and shooting macro is sooo much fun

I know I've been really inactive here the past couple of weeks but school and work has really been taking over my time lately. I'm going to be back little by little here from now on though and I haven't really been getting out shooting either (much due to the sucky weather) but that seems to be getting solved soon!

Anyway, I think that's gonna be it for my quickie faint back post I have a flute concert tomorrow and I think it'll go well

Today is my birthday I'm 16 today and since I'm updating this journal now in the early early morning, I haven't got anything, but since I know what I'm getting, I'm going to tell you

Alright, my presents this year, so far, which I know, is an extention of my NAPP membership for an additional year; a new and larger HDD and a new 22" screen (woo). And then money as well.

Now it is (sadly) time for school but I'll catch up later and tell me how my birthday day has been if anyone cares

My good buddy ~pritthish sent me a link to a cool site called Clientcopia where you can find a real ton of histories that anyone can submit about stupid clients. I must say it is really amusing and always been amusing to read the stories of other peoples clients and the fun and sometimes scary stuff they’ve said and done. I assure you that you’ll be spending a lot of time and have a lot of fun reading Clientcopia!

I've been deep down in work for a while and I still have a lot of projects to complete, but I'm thrilled that business is going so well for me and I'll be uploading a few designs soon, new ones!

Check out the features below and especially these two accounts; *MarcAdamus and ~KrazyKris86 I also wanna pimp out the galleries of ~WorldOfPicture and ~GlitterLight my two best friends that just got on here as well
