Mina drömmars trädgård – The Garden of my dreams

14 juni, 201514 juni, 2015 / Leya / 19 kommentarer

Jag har hittat Min Drömträdgård. Flera timmar satt jag där, och gick och njöt, ensam. Jag är på gång med en bildsvit därifrån, men väntar på att ägarna ska artbestämma allt jag fotograferat.

I have visited the garden of my dreams – My Dream Garden. I walked there all alone for several hours, just contemplating and savouring it all…Now I’m waiting for the owners to tell me what species everything is that I photographed. They travel and collect plants from all over the world, but now they are getting old and maybe will not be able to take care of this Paradise anymore..

Here is a first glance…

WPC : On the Way

30 maj, 20154 juni, 2015 / Leya / 12 kommentarer

Sometimes the way is more interesting than the final goal or end of destination.

Reina Sofia in Madrid is a modern museum containing among other famous works of art – Picasso’s Guernica. On the way to the painting, we walked in the beautiful, lofty corridors of the former hospital. The vaults and ceiling works of art in themselves.

Home in Sweden again, and on my way to an ordinary dog walk, Looking out the window I realize that on the way there is a stone wall clad in bright green ferns and snow white meadow saxifrage. I just had to stop for a photo…

So, don’t hesitate to look out the window, up in the ceiling or down on the floor – On the Way there are treasures waiting for you!

WPC: Forces of Nature

8 maj, 20158 maj, 2015 / Leya / 31 kommentarer

One of the strange and interesting forces of nature is the force of eruptions, volcanoes. This lava stream was flowing down the Icelandic landscape in the 17th century, and is now a beautiful but dangerous moss covered area. You cannot see what’s hiding under the moss – there could be huge holes several hundred metres down – now neatly covered death traps.

For Ailsa this week’s theme is Subtle. Öland by the sea, deer and dancing lapwings in late evening light.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Clouds

Clouds this week, for Cee. Maybe we don’t think so much about there being clouds at night as well…but sometimes we are fortunate to see them if we happen to look out the window – as I did. They change every minute, and the scenery can be quite intriguing.

WPC: Early Bird

17 april, 201517 april, 2015 / Leya / 25 kommentarer

I’m afraid I’m not a natural early bird – but I have learned over the years. If I know I have to go to work or catch a flight or photograph something spectacular. I will be. An early bird. I have never regretted any early morning…
