When we go to our summer house, this is the view just before we turn the last corner…we call it ”Hästviken”,. This is truly summer to me. And now, soon, this view means the final piece of summer when we say goodbye and leave for home.
Find some more summer lovin’ here.
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.
Last week I was featured on Cee´s Photography – thank you so much, Cee – it’s an honour!
I have been away with my students for some days to Bohuslän, which is on the west coast of Sweden. Of course this means Water! One of the days we had the opportunity to go by boat with scientists from the University of Gothenburg to dig up animals and plants from the bottom of the sea for examination. And we had a magnificent evening by Gullmarsfjorden.
My many hikes and walks tell me that I have to find the best ones for Cee…now that she gives us the opportunity to share them!
The levada walks in Madeira are marvellous. The stillness in the air and the soft scents along your walk make you never want it to end.
The hiking trails in the Pyrenées can be rather difficult, but their beauty is outstanding. And so are the ”Pancakes” of New Zealand.
In New Zealand you can also find these magnificent boulders on a sandy beach of the South Island.
Finally something of Ground. From the magnificent plateau in the Himalayas – on the road to Lhasa, Tibet.
An inordinate passion for pleasure is the secret of remaining young

In the still of the night…Midsummer’s Eve 2013.
Still waiting for something Still? Go to Ailsa at Where’s My Backpack? for more of it.
Alone is for me never a synonym to being lonely. A young man who goes away to sit alone and reflect upon his choice – during the days of introduction to a new school – and a beautiful rowan tree standing alone on the beach of a distant island. Both are beautiful in their wise thinking, contemplating their experiences.
Being one does not always mean being lonely – but sometimes…Here are my choices for Cee’s challenge!
What can be more lonely than the last toy on the shelf…?
He was alone in the street – I wonder who owned him?
Feeling good
Alone in the wind and fog – a lovely pine tree
“The earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons and daughters of the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected.”
Chief Seattle
Ailsa’s theme this week is about connections. Today we tend to make connections without being physical…technology is our guru. But the natural way, the way it was meant to be, hopefully glows from the other photos in this gallery.
If we totally forget that all things are connected – our species, and every living being on Earth, is doomed.
