At my age, I’m more often attending funerals than weddings… Luckily our children’s friends are coming of age…and on rare occations… we are invited to this great feast of joy – a wedding.
A mix of cultures makes these occations even more interesting. Enjoy a mix of pictures where the bride and groom entertain their hundreds of guests – playing and singing in a band. A lovely wedding for young and old, for musicians and everyone invited! Thank you!
I don’t know if this qualifies as a ”twist”, but I was playing around with photosketcher – and this is the result. Find more twists here.
This challenge made me think about how many of these squares, triangles and angles we find in an ordinary house – in this case an old cottage, a ”Blekingestuga”. For more on this theme – click here.
In the tiny rooms of this particular cottage, everything from ceiling to floor seems to be made up of these angles…
Miss Jenny Samuelsson from Kuggeboda, Blekinge, gave this cottage to the museum – now to be visited by everyone coming to their garden.
From the outside you can see the tinyness of this cottage – a remembrance of how poor people used to live in the old days.
Turning my lens to the modern buildings just some 50 metres from this cottage – the houses still have these angles and squares …and colours. A brilliant merge of old and new architecture.
Contrasts – impossible…couldn’t stop myself here…There are so many possibilities so it had to be a gallery. Some of them I have used before, but they work together as well! For more contrasts, click here.
World Cups for Ailsa! Warm light, tulips of course and – cupcakes. In Sweden they are ordinary muffins with a (buttercup) twist…
Every year we go for a short walk among the old wooden houses and the roses in Bergslagen, Ronneby. https://lagottocattleya.wordpress.com/2013/06/24/9685/
As you can see from last year, compared to now, the roses are here already. Everything in nature is early this year, and we all wonder what flowers will remain for us to see in July? I hope you enjoy the old houses and their sometimes equally old roses.
Straight between Sweden and Denmark! Lines are important, and sometimes they just have to be straight…these ones are for Cee’s challenge – why don’t you join in?
Solstice in Cornwall – there’s no one like Chillbrook to capture it.
Rather like buses, you wait forever for a Chillbrook Sunset and then a whole bunch of them come along at once. Well, I couldn’t ignore that here in the northern hemisphere we had our longest day yesterday. Always a bittersweet moment but one I thought I’d record this year. So, yesterday evening I decided to head out to Bedruthan Steps, on the north coast of Cornwall, to record the sun going down on the summer solstice.
A solstice occurs when the sun’s zenith is at its furthest point from the equator. During the June solstice it reaches its northernmost point and the Earth’s North Pole tilts directly towards the sun, at about 23.5 degrees. This happened at 11.51 AM BST (British Summer Time, one hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time).
Sunset was at 9.34 PM, according to Google for my location, so I set off at about 8.30 to see…

For the Travel theme at Ailsa’s, something shining it should be…I chose this Flower chafer who was sitting in a heavenly white and pink peony where I admired him for some minutes.
