Oyster

The world is my oyster

oyster is my world

gasping more more more

empty hollow shell

beached on display

pearl at pearly gate

Don’t throw pearls at swines, ha de Gött!

Slow boat

Boat slowly entering Bisse Rännan outside Resö in the early summer evening. Can’t come up with any better poetry than this.

Carpe diem, ha de Gött!

Double sky

Sometimes the double is better than the original.

Take time to reflect, ha de Gött!

Fly or die

It’s that time of year when most birds push their little chicks out from the nest. It’s a bit harsh. Fly or die! But it’s the rule of nature.

This is a Great tit. (For a brief moment I contemplated to use as headline for this post, could make traffic boom). He or she survived the first flight with a quick stopover on my shoulder.

Spread the wings of freedom, ha de gött!

Kalvö

Kalvö is one of three connected islands outside Havstenssund, Trossö-Kalvö-Lindö. Less than 10 people live on the island all year around but at it’s peak the islands had around 80 inhabitants. The island was an important hub for smuggling people and information for the resistance to the Nazi occupation of Norway during second world war.

Always try to be a good neighbor, ha de Gött!

Upperud locks

In Upperud there are two locks with a difference in altitude of five meters. This is part of Dalslands Kanal, (see previous post here). The first iron work of Dalsland was founded here in 1647 and in 1840 it was the largest in the area. In the old nearby mansion Napoleons niece, princess Christine Egypta Bonaparte lived together with her husband Arvid Posse.
