Todays topic is probably absolute nonesense for those of you who doesn’t speak English, but there is no direct translation of the word “hygge”. In this case the closest meaning I refer to is cosy and having a nice time inside while it is snowing outside.
I had to stress my creative mind today, as it was already dark outside when I got a chance to find the camera, so I decided to look for something inside. I found a cute little table with a flower and a candle on it, and began to shoot it from different angles and with different light settings from the two tungsten lamps I had nearby in my hotel room.
I got a few decent shots and got to try some different set ups of these two simple things, with different light and different compositions. Even though I was a bit annoyed with having to take a picture I ended up having a really good time. 
My choice today is hardly edited. It is not cropped nor rotated. I have darkened the shadows a bit, to turn the brown background into a black background. The composition is one where I zoom in on a detail of something. I this case a candle. I have got some of my best shots that way. But I hope I will improve to be able to take good photos of other things as well.
One thing I learned today, is to pay attention to all settings at once. A thing I still have problems with. I deliberatly put the whit balance for tungsten, as both my light sources were tungsten lights. And then I later decided to pop the on camera flash, without changing the white balance, the result is as you can see on the photo to the right. Something with a “slight” blue tint. Even though it was an accident, I kind of like the picture, so the lesson might as well be expanded from “remember the correct white balance “, to “you can use white balance for creative purposes”.
