Ever changing, always the same.
Soothing sounds.
Forest stream.
Take time to just feel, ha de Gött!
Winter and Snow
With the new year came a gale strong north wind with snow and cold. With a cold effect in the wind below -20°C you need to be prepared before you go out. Woollen underwear, extra socks, winter ski pants and thick winter jacket.
To sit down out of the wind with a cup of hot chocolate with this scene makes it all worth it.
Stay warm, ha de Gött!
Underneath
Dare to look underneath, ha de Gött!
Small boat

Fairy dance
In fading late summer light.
Fairies come out in dance.
Shy, in long white veils.
Melting together in mist.
Tucking in nature for the night.
Svensk version
Älvdans
I blekt sensommarljus.
Älvorna komma ut i dans.
Blygt, i långa vita slöjor.
Smälter samman i dimma.
Stoppar om naturen för natten.
This is inspired by my father-in-law who had a name for this type of mist “Älvdans” Fairy Dance. Ha de Gött!

Family
A family of Greylag goose (anser anser). The parents keep a close watch on me as they swim out of my reach. I hope some of the chicks survive this year. Assuming this are the same couple as last year in this spot, last year they had fewer and I don’t think any survived. I could count ten chicks, how may can you see?
Nature is beautiful but hard, ha de Gött!

Resilience
Knocked down but still fighting.
We all need support from time to time, ha de Gött!
