Travel theme: Refreshing

I find the colour pink very refreshing…

Ailsa wants some good solutions here…and what about roses? New Dawn or old bush roses – I find both of them charmingly fresh. Other solutions? Click here.

The roses on the left come from a more than one hundred year old bush. An old lady had them growing in her garden and I asked if I could get one - which I could!

These tiny roses come from a more than one hundred year old bush. An old lady had them growing in her garden and I asked if I might dig up a piece – and she gave me permission to do so. They still are a feast to the eye every June.

WPC: Future

Future – if we have one. A difficult topic. I choose to talk about the nearest future. What I know will happen in my garden and in my forest, in a week or two.

 

 

Seven Day Nature Photo, Day Seven – Home

I have been nominated by my friend Sue, at WordsVisual, to take part in a challenge of a photo per day for seven days, of anything from the natural world. And every day I should nominate a new member.

On my last day, I must tell you the truth – nothing in Nature is more dear to me than ”my own” forest. The paths I walk every day, sitting under the giant beech tree, nodding to My Old Friend when passing – in whatever costume he greets me. I may travel the world and enjoy its beauty – but This, is my home.

Seven Day Nature Photo, Day Five – Lady’s Slipper Orchid

I have been nominated by my friend Sue, at WordsVisual, to take part in a challenge of a photo per day for seven days, of anything from the natural world. And every day I should nominate a new member.

Cypripedium calceolus is a lady’s-slipper orchid growing wild in Sweden, and very much unlike other wild orchids here. This photo is from a very dear friend’s garden – I got the opportunity to photograph the entire garden last summer. Magnificent species.

Today I would like to nominate photographer and blogger Robert Weir at Clicking through the bucket list to take part in the 7-day Nature Photo. He is a brilliant photographer and a worldwide traveller. I would love to see what he might come up with for this challenge….. though I am not sure there is spare time enough for this busy man. If not – no worries, Robert, I am only glad to rekommend your blog to other bloggers!
