CFFC: Gardens

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Gardens

My favourite garden is here in Sweden…but I can sometimes dream of having a really grand garden…with big trees and open grounds with perfect lawns. And of course, in my dreams there is always a giant greenhouse with rare and exotic plants.

Yes,,,you can always dream…

House façades are interesting, and so are ”ground façades” – these almost of the same colur. The house in Spain and the ground in Morocco.

Travel theme: Dark

Travel theme: Dark

For Ailsa – Dark. As a child I was afraid of the dark. I read many books and had a vivid imagination. Today I can still be afraid sometimes…

In the header, a beautifully lit sky on my own doorstep an early morning.

The darkest country I have ever visited was Tibet. But high above Lhasa there is a soaring,  shining light – the Potala Palace.

WPC: Transmogrify

WPC this Friday – Transmogrify.

 

Transmogrify into something distorted and ugly or into a work of art? This house in Bilbao reflects and mirrors a bridge where a red car is passing.

Santiago de Compostela – The Goal for Every Pilgrim

What gave me most joy about Santiago de Compostela, was to see all the pilgrims arriving at  Praza do Obradoiro in front of the impressive baroque facade of the Cathedral.

So much joy!

Then every pilgrim must attend the Pilgrim’s Mass. So, let us join the them and enter into the magnificent Cathedral,  built for S:t Jakob in 1000-1200 .

The ritual with the Botafumeiro has an interesting history…

So, this is the end of the pilgrim adventure for now – But maybe some day…
