My pictures for sale - limited edition and with time limit!


Good morning!! I feel very lucky and honoured to have been asked by newly started Hashpix to sell my best instagram pictures through them. My followers have asked me many many times if I sell my pictures, and it has taken me until now to find a good way to do it. And here it is, my first limited edition poppy collection!!! For sale at


http://hashpix.com/mariannehope

I'm really exited by this, as these are some of my favourite flower pictures of all time and very much my own less-is-more style. There's a time limit on the sales, just three days, then the sale stops and there are only 10 of each for sale. So if you ever wanted to buy one or some of these, it's pretty much now or never and I really hope I can make some of you happy:) 

Stay tuned, Hashpix are just starting out today, but they have big plans and much more to come... 

Resolutions...

Happy belated New Year everyone!!!! It's a new year and a new year comes with new resolutions.... One of mine is to post pictures here on this blog more frequently and I really hope I will manage. Time is an issue however. It would help and motivate me if you did leave a comment if you read my posts though. You know, some kind of sign to show your interested and actually get something from what I post.

I have big photographic plans for 2012, one of them to design and create my own professional website and new blog. I am also the founder and manager of a very interesting project, so I know I will have my hands full.

I am also going to participate in the MCP project 12, to challenge myself and have some fun with other photographers around the globe. Want to know more about the project? I advise you to check out the link, but basically there's a set theme every month and the January theme is as you might have guessed by now:  "Resolution". So here are my favorite pictures from New years eve and the beginning of 2012:



Night photography at Glow festival in Eindhoven


It's been a while (actually years!) since I last took "by night" pictures, but last saturday I had the opportunity to take some very special photos at Glow festival in Eindhoven. The city was literally glowing and there was fascinating colors, patterns and music everywhere. I especially like the first picture here (above), where you can see the light that is being projected on the chirch (the chirch is behind me)

Below you can see buildings being projected with different patterns and colors. Very beautiful and amazing to see. The two first pictures are of the same building, but with different projections.



And here are some pictures I shot and edited with my iphone. The last two isn't really from the festival, but it's random but very interesting architecture in Eindhoven.
