Recently visited this lovely city in Latvia while scouting good places around for photos! Corona gives you opportunity to know better your own country as borders closed. . . . . . #talsi #latvia #latvija #thisislatvia #visitlatvia #visit_latvia #enjoylatvia #landscape #landscapes #landscapephotography #traveldeeper #traveler #travellife #traveling #travelblogger #travelphotography #instatravel #awesome_earth #awesome_photographers #awesome_earthpix #amazingwrld #landscapes #landscapephotography #cityscape #lovelyplace #dreamy #moodyphotography #photography #niceplace #earthfocus (at Talsi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAK77xcBnOQ/?igshid=1wbhv9kww3uz4
Finally I was lucky with weather! Had clear skies at night to shoot stars. Because of moonlight wasn't able to get milky way as wanted, but in other hand foreground had enough light so there was no reason to take separate shots. All in one! . . . . . #latvia #latvija #landscape #landscapes #landscapephotography #traveldeeper #traveler #travellife #traveling #travelblogger #travelphotography #instatravel #awesome_earth #awesome_photographers #awesome_earthpix #amazingwrld #landscapes #landscapephotography #naturephotography #naturelovers #thisislatvia #visitlatvia #visit_latvia #enjoylatvia #photography #naturephotos #lake #lakelife #wildlife (at Lake Kaņieris) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_NKgMYDnsN/?igshid=1cn3bhi48k3x2

I didn't saw such sunset for a very long time.. Everything was in orange and red colours! 🌅 Took these photos as soon as car stopped! The first things to do were to get my tripod ready, put camera on, and start shooting! No time for everything else.. 😅 . . . . . #sunset #sunsetphotography #sunsets #sunset_pics #latvia #latvija #landscape #landscapes #landscapephotography #traveldeeper #traveler #travellife #traveling #travelblogger #travelphotography #travelgram #instatravel #instagood #adventure #adventuretime #awesome_earth #awesome_photographers #awesome_earthpix #amazingwrld #landscapes #landscapephotography #mountainview #sonyalpha #naturephotography #naturelovers (at Lake Kaņieris) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hhVgrh9QV/?igshid=1g0cq92vnss0u

Mid-tempo tracks in ESC 2018
This year, besides the up-beat tracks and ballads we’ve got group of mid-tempo entries which all happen to have a bit dark, soul, jazz sounds in them. I love them all but I know some will go down in the semifinals. Especially when they’re almost all in the 1st semifinal...Which one is your favourite?
They appear in the alphabetical order:
AUSTRIA - CESÁR SAMPSON - NOBODY BUT YOU (1st semifinal)
I’ve warmed up to this slowly but gotta admit that there’s something in this. Nice beat, stands out with gospel/soul sound, he sings well - quite like his voice! I see this qualifying if only the live show goes well.
BELGIUM - SENNEK - A MATTER OF TIME (1st semifinal)
I’m one of the rare ones who don’t get this nor the hype around Belgium’s entry this year. I see that Sennek is talented, she has a vision, this is arty instead of “fast food” music. This is lyrically heavy but it’s balanced with the light melody. It’s interesting, sophisticated but I’m still waiting for my wow moment with this. I see this qualifying.
BULGARIA - EQUINOX - BONES (1st semifinal)
I kind of ignored Bulgaria this year due to the similarity other entries. But been watching some reaction and fan favorite videos and I quite like it as well! This has a very nice sound with multiple layers including the different vocals that makes it to stand out. It’s heavy, haunting and dark. I’m really looking forward to see this live. I believe strongly that this will qualify.
CROATIA - FRANKA - CRAZY (1st semi)
Croatia took a hit recently it was revealed that Crazy existed before sung by another artist. Franka enlightened that the two songs had same producers and that “Crazy” is the original one. Not sure where allegations stand at the moment though. This is jazzy - I like its beat. I like this a lot but I’m afraid this will fall being too generetic unless they really nail it with the live show. Which they might be able to do because the music video is stunning! However Croatia will perform just before Austria which I found better - I’m worried.
LATVIA - LAURA RIZZOTTO - FUNNY GIRL (2nd semifinal)
I fell in love with this for the first time I heard it. I know it’s not a winning song or even qualifying one but I’m liking it. It’s sexy, playful - there’s this 007 sound in it. But I think as much as I love it I don’t see it standing out enough to qualify. Only being in the second semifinal might save Latvia since Thursday live show is missing almost all mid-tempo tracks.
