Finally there was some light and I was off work. I backed my camera gear and headed out in the morning. What a morning, -11°C and light offshore winds. From the still warm sea the sea smoke rose and danced around Väcker lighthouse like fairies.
Stay tuned for more pictures to come and also check out my Instagram.
Dressed for success, ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
We had a tug of war, me and the wind. I was trying to get a stable shot but the wind tried to push me of the cliff. Sat down on my ass like a three year old while the wind was screaming like a parent in 30 meters per second. Just like riding on the car roof going 105 km/h.
Keep calm and hold on, ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
Where there is shadow there is always light, ha de Gött!
Autumn explosion of colours, ha de Gött!
Ha de Gött!
Autumn and its colours, ha de Gött!
So the autumn storms start to come in with salty winds. Yesterday I used up all my cleaning cloths for the camera gear. It was worth it, I think.
Salt is the best spice, ha de Gött!
After rain they come crawling
up from the wet grass
crossing the roads and footpaths
where are they all going
is it an initiation rite
cross without getting crushed
see what’s on the other side
a sluggish paradise or
a sticky mess under a shoe
The killer slug (Arion vulgaris), yes that is it’s name! It’s also know as Spanish slug. It’s considered an invasive species and a great annoyance to all gardeners all over Europe. Why it’s called killer slug I don’t know but the best explanation I heard from a child. “They are called killer slugs because you kill them.”
Watch your step, ha de Gött!
