Wordless Wednesday – Cattleya Rojo
Tankar
Caught through the window – but not in the act…
There were some soft, grey feathers lying under the feeding tree yesterday. There were quite a few suspects as well: the magpies, the sparrow hawk and the goshawk. Today I spied a fourth suspect-
I gave a loud shout and grabbed the camera before he jumped off the trunk. A beautiful cat, but that is no excuse…
CFFC: Things that are Cold
As I am still in Iceland…at least in my mind – here is the frozen Gullfoss. And I assure you, it was COLD. Hang on to the tiny left corner to warm you up… For more cold things, click here and visit Cee.

Silent Sunday
Bodil Malmsten is dead
The much loved, Swedish poet and writer Bodil Malmsten is dead. Two hours ago I heard it on the news. She was in her seventies only and a brilliant thinker and poet. I cannot say how sad this day is – no more poems, books, subtle humour or new thoughts to look forward to. She had such a crisp and different look upon things…something we all needed. Many of us has got her last book by our beds today.
Media is filled with personal memories of her and people’s thoughts of what she has meant to them. She said herself she was not afraid of the big secret – what happens after death. She also said about her cancer: Why not me? Where many of us would think – Why me?
I guess I should not ask – Why you, Bodil. But I do.

WPC: Time
Time – we are all moving in it – and through it. And looking back…through what we think is a clear window frame, we realize the blur and the shadows. Time changes everything, and we can never know or be certain about the way everything looked or worked…
Not in Ostia Antica, Rome, and not even yesterday, at home. In our minds we can imagine or remember – but the moment in time is gone.
Thursday Thoughts
One of very few ”outdoor” days this week. No rain, and even a tiny drop of sun…
I went out to test my new Panasonic in nature. Totti rather liked it…and so did I.
What do you think?
The rains have left high water levels everywhere.
Still, easy to walk and no need for big boots – it has also been very windy this week.
Many trees again…have fallen. Wet feet and wind – means difficulties to stand upright.
Today’s hike was lovely though. and sometimes there seemed to be Spring in the air. Bird song and singing brooks.
Much water to deal with for the trees…that is the only good thing with the wind now…
Pocketable from Canon to Panasonic
Time for my pot plants to wake up from their winter sleep…
…and some porcelain birds as well.
So, I shot these with my new ”dog walking” camera – a Panasonic Lumix TZ70. My old Canon suddenly got a white spot inside the lens, (I could see it clearly, and the photos got a big blur in the upper left corner ) and there was nothing to do about it as it is a compact camera.
I never had a Panasonic before, but this one got high grades in photo magazines and was listed number one of neat compacts this year. My criteria were: ability to use one hand only (dog leash in the other), good in low light, long zoom lens and still pocketable. This Lumix feels good, but is not as good in low light as the Canon was. A plus point is that I love the design …
