A Memory, for Sylvain Landry. One of the most heartbraking cemeteries I have visited ever – and I have visited many. This is the Jewish cemetery in Warsaw, where thousands and thousands of Jews are resting after the war massacres. Nobody left to care for the graves. Crumbling stones and solemn trees. A tragedy never to be forgotten.

WPC: Grid
WordPress – Grid, make it the most important in your photo. Well, grids are not always manmade – you find nature’s grids everywhere…My choice fell on a Vanda, a remarkable Asian orchid, intensely coloured with a splendid grid. This Vanda I found standing in Denmark, outside a hotel.

# 317 Trotjänare – Faithful Old Servant (260/365)
Jag har varit en ung flickas trotjänare genom gymnasiet, över två universitet och även jorden runt. När hon arbetade som volontär på Nya Zeeland stod jag troget vid hennes sida och för kommunikationen – vilket var mycket värdefullt för hennes mamma och pappa , och säkert för henne själv också. Vi höll ihop i vått och torrt och tack vare att vi hade varandra klarade hon av att leva därute i bushen. Nu har jag många år på nacken och börjar bli lite… sliten, så där borta i ljuset någonstans…ligger väl evigheten…Men, såsom varande trotjänare hänger man ju i så länge det finns tangenter och batteri!
I have been serving this young woman through high school and two universities – and around the world as well. When she worked as a volunteer in New Zealand I was the one who stood by her side and helped her keeping up communication with her parents. Now I’m getting old and tired – but will try to hang on for some years yet…we still need each other, Emma and me!

SL – WEEK 9: School
Introduktion to a new school involves playing and games to get to know each other and to learn how to trust each other. This photo is from the first day at our school, last year, last autumn 2014.
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Habits
Habits work through the senses – join in Cee’s challenge this week and find out more about yourself! I have chosen the positive alternatives: Good.
For more of this, click here.
- Habits
- Sense of Seeing – What delights visually.
- Sense of Touching – What textures do you like to touch.
- Sense of Hearing – What sounds do you like to hear.
- Sense of Tasting – What tastes good (or bad) to you.
- Sense of Smelling – What smells good(or bad) to you.
Seeing – Nature. Today’s Autumn colours
Touching – My dogs. Only Totti now.
Hearing – Bird song. Waking up to an early morning thrush.
Tasting – Wild berries like these blackberries, newly picked.
Smelling – Flowers like lavender, roses and honeysuckle
So what do these habits tell about me?
WPC: Beneath Your Feet
A very important thought as well – what is beneath your feet. Join in on WordPress and let us know!
Beneath my feet two days ago was a shimmering beach with happy, rushing and playing dogs. I enjoyed the lovely company of blogging friend Seonaid Green of breathofgreenair. (and her family!) Thank you for having us! Forever grateful.
My heart feels as light as the clouds when I’m watching her beautiful dogs floating on sand and water. Maisie, Willow and Mollie!
SL-WEEK 6: Moto
An old photo from a night in Barcelona 2013, but revealing some of the magic with motorcycles…
Travel theme: Wind
Ailsa’s theme this week is about Wind. As the wind has been fairly strong during the last weeks here, my contribution is from a walk with Totti on a small island near our summer house. Trees and grass and us on the move…
Totti, at least, is a fan of these strong winds. He turns his nose to the wind and – enjoys!
