This Rose is growing in Wellington, New Zealand, and that’s the closest I have been to Australia and You!
Blommor
Weekly Travel theme: Blossom
So many wonderful colours and blossoms meet me every day now. In the early morning the yellow stands out in the fields…
…and in the middle of the day, when visiting a dear old friend of mine, she proudly showed me her little tree covered in a shower of pink.
Arriving home I went out in my garden to love the last rays of sun nesting in the cherry blossom. What would life be without Spring?

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Nature Animals
Well, some animals found in nature are wild and some are domesticised – I love them all (except spiders and cockroaches…). These I met today on my way home. Some liked being photographed while others didn’t think much of it – just flew away…
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Flowers
Flowering now in Sweden, Skåne, are these beauties:
Magnolia tree
Marsh marigold or kingcup
Hackberry
Weekly Photo Challenge: Spring
I think spring to me is a feeling…filling me from head to feet…when walking in my forest late in the evening. In the green flow of the fragrant beeches, listening to the clear melodies of the thrush in the canopy and the little strong voiced wren in the dark shrubbery below. Standing in the clearing the soft fragrance of hackberry fills the air, and I just breathe – Spring.
Everything is near and still far away…and I…am here, in the moment, in my self, in nature. Reborn.
Easter in my little world
Easter is here – let’s have a colourful miniparade celebrating it! This morning in my garden and in my town – Happy Easter!
Ese’s Weekly Shoot & Quote Challenge: Mysterious
The moment one gives close attention to any thing, even a blade of grass it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.

Travel theme: Pink
Pink comes in many different hues. My three beautiful flowers – One sunlit pelargonia, a soft spring magnolia and a lovely student of mine at last year’s ball!

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: The Color Purple
Purple is my mother’s favourite colour. So for Cee I have chosen one wild flower, a second flower from my garden and the third beauty is my favourite orchid.
Pasque flower at Kjugekull, Skåne. These flowers are quite rare and you are not allowed to pick them or dig them up to plant in your garden.
Cranesbill geranium from my garden. Lovely flowers in bouquets and especially together with orange and yellow flowers.
Cattleya. Photo from my dear friend Börje’s greenhouse. Cattleyas are easily grown in your own window – flower generously and are found in a great variety of colours.
