Weekly Challenge
WPC: Narrow
As much as I like the open landscape, I also like things narrow – unless it turns up in nightmares where I am stuck in a narrow tunnel, unable to go either forwards or backwards…
For more things narrow, click here.
The tunnel leading to Cuevas de Valporquero, Spain. In reality – not a nightmare!
WPC: Look up
Look up! This is a very varied challenge with many possibilities. My take is all about nature – even if you might not think so…
In the header, a lamp from Gaudí’s Casa Batllo´in Barcelona. He always used Nature herself as an inspiration. Maybe a drop of water in a pool?
A Swedish autumn birch in its splendour – who would not look up?
Great tree ferns, New Zeeland, North Island.
New Zealand’s Great fern trees draws your eye…upwards.
Madrid
In Madrid my head went dizzy when watching this tree in a spectacular swing…
Madrid
And these well dressed trees… I just hade to peep inside for this spectacular view!

WPC: Opposites
Opposites…often go well together. For WPC I have chosen the Moroccan desert. Many opposites to be found here. In the header the classic desert/oasis, But, in the second one maybe more subtleties…
More entries here.
WPC: Partners
Partners for WordPress – Midsummer’s Eve is of course the perfect day to spend with your partner.
Whether it might be shoes and feet…or maybe gloves and hands –
(Or maybe you will find another partner in these shots as well…)
But, in the end, the traditional Partner.
WPC: Curve
From WordPress this week – Curves. Natural ones!
WPC: Pure
In spring everything is pure…Yesterday I met this beautiful demoiselle. In silence he watched me passing by.
WPC: Earth
The challenge this week from WordPress is to “…share your vision of our glorious Mother Earth”.
I feel…we are a tiny, gloriously beautiful, island out in the great blue – surrounded by stars and the heavens. Who is at the wheel? I wish we had better control …I fear we have lost the sextant and with it, our ability of navigation.
WPC: Admiration
I admire many people. People who struggle hard to get a decent life, people who save other people’s lives, people who have accomplished great things… But there is one man I admire perhaps the most of all. The Dalai Lama.
We all know his story, how he was taken from his parents at an early age – being the chosen one. How he had to flee his country from the invading Chinese, and how he has managed to survive and be the leader and role model for so many people in the world. His gentle wisdom, his smiling eyes, his message of peace and nonviolence is recognized worldwide.
The Dalai Lama has my deepest admiration .
In the header is a picture from Malmoe, when he visited in 2011. I had listened to him once before in Lund, but this time I also happened to be right at the entrance just when he left the building.
After the interesting and joyful interview, he walked out to the waiting car…
…saying his gentle goodbyes to all of us. For this time. In my heart, I hope to see him again. Some day. Somewhere.
