The yearly visit to Bergslagen

Every year we go for a short walk among the old wooden houses and the roses in Bergslagen, Ronneby. https://lagottocattleya.wordpress.com/2013/06/24/9685/

As you can see from last year, compared to now, the roses are here already. Everything in nature is early this year, and we all wonder what flowers will remain for us to see in July? I hope you enjoy the old houses and their sometimes equally old roses.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Straight Lines

Straight between Sweden and Denmark! Lines are important, and sometimes they just have to be straight…these ones are for Cee’s challenge – why don’t you join in?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Room

This week’s photo challenge is called Room – for us to interpret the way we feel. A room for me to love, must contain flowers and plants and it must contain books. As books and humidity don’t go that well together, my real dream will never come true. There will have to be at least two rooms… But, here’s a dream medley, finished off with what comes closest – in my home.

 

 

 

Weekly Travel theme: Cities

 Cities are maybe not my favourites…but I do like to visit larger cities when I’m abroad – for many reasons. Something of what cities mean to me will hopefully show here:

Weekly Photo Challenge: Twist

A film tunnel that twists and turns..turning back time….A big surprise where we least expected it! Kristianstad was once a real film city and renowned as ”Little Paris” This tunnel contains old film memories of the great days back then in 1905 and the 20th C. This week Kristianstad celebrated its 400 years´ jubilée – and the King and Queen attended.

Weekly Travel theme: Metal

Ailsa’s theme this week is about metal. New Zealand again – Metal things found in the sea, metal for a playground in Auckland, for the Zoo, and works of art for the harbour in Auckland. Mostly impressed I was by the most beautiful dustbins I have ever seen – and for the water in the street …have you ever seen such a marvellous detail?

 

Weekly Travel theme: Glow

Ailsa’s Travel theme invites us to glow this week. These three beautiful bridges of Budapest surely knew they would be glowing here one day! I loved the green bridge – even at night.

Funny how the results of playing with the camera, entertaining my students, might come of use one day. Here we are exploring Budapest by night.

Ese’s Weekly Shoot & Quote Challenge: Celebrate

We’re all here at the same time and we should celebrate that.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Patterns

From Cee this week – patterns. Mine are rectangles from a church roof and rings from a bird in the lake. Very different but they give me a nice feeling both of them.
