Tuesday Photo Challenge – Bank
We had some snow that year, 2015, and glorious winter days.
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Cold and Warm
Cold and Warm – these shots are from an early morning walk some years ago.
Temperature -10 degrees C
– and the sun threw golden diamonds in the snow
The dogs loved this too – we walked back home in harmony – with frozen fingers

Paula, at Lost in Translation, asks us for Wintry… at least in our photos this week. As I posted my best ones this winter yesterday, I return to Iceland for some Real ”wintries.”
Today I woke up to a wonderland in white – the most beautiful morning this winter.
International Women’s Day
The whole garden soft and soundless – and today was the funeral for Marie.
Somehow it seemed so right that she was given the most beautiful, this magically soft light, her last day.
She was a strong and remarkable woman. Warm, creative and so full of life – she will always be remembered, never forgotten. Thank you, Marie, for being my friend.
In the summer, the river banks are lovely to walk – but winter is very interesting as well. And of course it is easier to get to the other side of the city.
Going by car or bus, you have to use the bridges. And there is a bridge for pedestrians as well. We tried both.
There is a shimmering swirl of snow/ice crystals in the air, that we never have in Skane, where I live. I guess it is the crisp cold that does it. Difficult to catch on a photo, but here are two possible ones. I hope you get what I mean!
Some examples of architecture – lovely houses here. Mostly wooden. And a happy guide!
One of the most beautiful buildings in Umeå is the Town Hall, built in 1892. The Restaurant and Brasserie, Rex, on the corner, had a sale this Saturday. Old porcelain and cutlery, furniture and miscellaneous. Not a chance of getting inside! The queue went around two blocks…in this cold…
The last day we had dinner at Lottas Krog – and we were all very satisfied with our visit – many thanks to our excellent guide. Lottas too, can be recommended!
