As I’m having wonderful students this year – too – I’m rather busy with my big classes! I try to blog, and try to read as many blogs as I can as often as I can …Thursday evenings though, there are usually some hours free – and today I have been trying Fotosketcher again. A way to relax before the Big Day. There’s the Big Election coming up here in Sweden this Sunday, and as I’m responsible for the election held in my area, I will be very busy that day. Fun, but a lot of responsibility. I have been doing this since the 1980’s. This year I guess everyone expects there to be a totally new government on Monday morning.
Now to my pictures…which one turned out the best? Technically? Colours? Your preferences? The flower and the beach are from Blekinge, Sweden. The building is the Edinburgh Parliament and the cat – was watching me from a window at Greyfriar’s, Edinburgh.

Golden seagrass against the deep blue rocks! But el gato captures my heart!
I’m glad you really liked that one!
Definitely the paint like quality of #3
Thank you – it’s rather fun doing it!
Beautiful photographs and best wishes on the election.
Thank you – we fear the extreme right wing, but hope for the best.
We do live in uncomfortable times don’t we? Hope all goes well for you and your country. Happy that you are enjoying your new class this year.
We do. Sometimes life is really swaying. My classes are great – keeps my senses clear and bright!
My favourite is the flower. And wonderful that you help out with the elections. Our elections are on 20 September.
20 September – I see. Do you vote for government only or for more?
Just the Government. Occasionally a referendum may be included.
That building is very interesting. Nice editing on the photos!
I actually like all of the photos, Leya. Well done on playing around with them. It’s nice to see that you made the rough texture of the wall stand out, yet the cat seems to steal the attention 🙂
I like the third and the cat especially! 🙂
Toast to you for these remarkable shots, Leya!.
Thanks a lot for sharing!, best wishes, Aquileana 😀
The shore and the window cat are exceptionally fine compositions…I would like to paint the shore…it fills me with calm.
Wonderful that it fills you with calm – that makes me feel good!
I like it when you play around! 🙂
