Weekly Photo Challenge: Good Morning!

My mornings – when the weekend finally is here – are usually Good…especially when the sun is shining in there is a smile on my face. I walk slowly through the rooms, watering my flowers. Alone up and awake. Beautiful silence.

A couple of hours later, I hear my daughter’s bare feet in the stairs. Immediately two tails start drumming heavily…so, she says hello and picks up Mille or Totti and sits talking for a while – to both of them.  They all agree on the fact that life’s worth living…

Then I smile, open the door and walk out into my garden, shoes on my feet now,  to find some herbs and maybe some last flowers to put on the table. Not much is left …and frost has turned green into red and yellow. It’s a good morning.

Weekly Photo Challenge: From Lines to Patterns

From lines to patterns. We see lines and patterns in the world around us, in nature and things man-made. Sometimes we don’t realize they’re there: on the street, across the walls, up in the sky, and along the ground on which we walk.

Here are my choices, taken from my world.

Travel theme: Through

Through – open for many interpretations! Ailsa’s travel theme had me thinking about finding one natural through and one manmade through. Here are my choices:

Barcelona och Pyrenéerna 2011 389View through the giant windows at Salvador Dalí’s museum in Figueras, Spain.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Inside

In Madrid there is an excellent park with interestingly pruned trees –

Travel theme: Hidden

Hallands Väderö 2013 038

På vår ötripp till Hallands Väderö upptäckte en av eleverna denna lilla huggorm. Väl gömd i det skyddande gräset låg han och solade – säkert född detta år, för han var inte så stor.

A student found this viper, hidden in the grass, sunbathing, This is a very seldom seen snake, and the only poisonous one in Sweden. Being very rare it’s a protected species.

More hidden things can be seen here, at Ailsa’s place.
