Like a yellow beacon the Easter lily (Narcissus pseudonarcissus) pops up around Easter holiday. Like the latin name indicates it draws all attention to itself. It is a planted bulb imported to Scandinavia. It originates from the native species found in western Europe from Spain to the British ilands.

Shine but don’t blind, ha de Gött!

Fisherman

Alone time, just me time, hunter and collector

Back to, man against nature

Salmon trout lurking under the surface, spectator

Snitch the bait, see ya in the future

When alone is a choice it’s good, ha de Gött!

Easter bonfire

Easter bonfire

The ‘Påskbrasa’ Easter bonfire tradition stems back the mid 1700 when Dutch merchants in Göteborg brought this to the Swedish west coast. The fires was meant to scare of the witches returning from the island Blåkulla where they been indulging in orgies with the Devil. There is also a link to the burning of alleged witches that took place all over Europe during the 1600.

The Easter bonfire is a tradition in the northwestern part of Europe, Austria and Switzerland. Like many Christian church traditions this has it roots in the folklore. Fires were lit in the breaking point between winter and spring, to help spring to win over the cold and dark winter.

Keep the fire burning for all that is good, ha de Gött!

Easter moon

Ducking for the witches and wizards flying away on their Easter parade I managed to get these full moon pictures yesterday. It was a magical evening with a light spring chilled wind. The birds singing mixed with witches evil laughter and the werewolf howling at the moon.

Got to get that fur of my back, howl de Gött!
