The sun is shining in, and the colours are returning to my home. In the header a Tradescantia, or Wandering Jew, and here a Hatiora Salicornioides (Both from Brazil). The English name is said to be bottle plant, drunkard’s dream!

Cee’s B&W Photo Challenge: Made by Humans
Thursday Thoughts – Love Is In The Air
Love is in the air – A simple flower, the tiny shape of a heart – to celebrate…
some beautiful feelings and sentiments…
The rose
Young couples…
…and old ones
Should the flower of passion hit you – keep cool and let it unfold its secrets…
…because Love is the strongest and most important force in our lives.
Above all, Learn to Love thyself – and you will be able to love others as well.

CFFC: Colour of Your Choice
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Color of Your Choice
All my favorite colours I find in my garden – in the header. And here is my favorite flower.
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Crawl
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Crawl
For Dutch Goes the Photo this Tuesday – Crawl! I thought I had no photos of crawling creatures…but found these. I was looking for a snake shot of a Swedish viper. But No, did not find it…I hope a Galapagos Land Iguana is OK – at least when it is eating from a cactus. And the Swedish variety is a nice little spring frog.
And I could not refrain from giving you this human crawl as well…spotted in Switzerland some years ago…Enjoy!
Macro Monday – From Soil to Ice
My son found this little one when walking the path up to my door. Surely he is a bit too early on his way – the snail? February only.
He was so tiny, only about 3 millimeters, and still venturing out in this big world…on icy paths with an unwashed house. He ”looked” at me…
but, when I came too close with the camera, he silently steered away.
My son decided to pick him up and hide him under the garden bushes – out of sight from hungry little birds. Maybe we will meet again, on our way towards summer?
Lens-Artists Challenge #32 – Shadows
In the header, the grand Aqueduct of Segovia, Spain. A picture where you cannot ignore the importance of shadows. For Tina’s challenge this week – Shadows.
Shadow owes its birth to light.
John Gay
Even the tiniest creature/ thing displays a delicate shadow when there is light enough
And as you move, your shadow moves with you…
In the late evening… the shadows make us a delightful pair – the cherry tree and me
The fence, in Riga, Latvia – one of my favorite pictures ever
Some flowers look their best in the shadows of other flowers in my garden
The golden browns of the dunes become enhanced by the shadows
…and the trees provide soothing shadow while they thrive and reach for the light
Thank you to Tina for a lovely challenge, and a homage to the importance of shadows.
Find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and dark which that thing provides.
