Time for reflection, ha de Gött!


Time for reflection, ha de Gött!


What is hidden in snow comes out in the thaw, ha de Gött!


Sunday waves, ha de Gött!





we all know it to be true
colour of winter is blue
spring by most is seen
a cascade of budding green
yellow is the sun rays honours
summer abundance of light hours
grey is the shade of fall
loved by some, but not all
Enjoy the seasons changes, ha de Gött!


standing in cold and snow
longing far and away
to the distant horizon glow
a better place, do say
stick with what you know
don't get burned, stay
Don’t play with fire, ha de Gött!


Proud they stand, long and tall
with brown winter coloured plumes
from king Frost puffs, refuses to fall
enduring force bends them right back
whizzes low, a reed choir call
while the fox sneaks over the ice
Best not to be too stiff, ha de Gött!


Freeze for a moment, ha de Gött!


It was not really a good day for photography but I wanted to check out a new area, Valön nature preserve. Just a 40 minutes drive from home but I had never been there. With safety in mind I thought best explore in daylight. There was some high thin clouds as I set out that I hoped would filter the harsh sun a bit but they cleared as I arrived. There was a 2 km walk from the parking lot down to the water front. I’m glad I went out! Poseidon had a spectacular show ongoing and I got some great photos. Do check my Instagram for more. To quote Arnold “I’ll be back”.
Don’t give up until you tried, ha de Gött!


little creek water freezes on the beach
the sun lets its scarce winter rays
cast a mild red and orange light
behind the frost white cliffs
illuminates hill south side
with a promise of warmer days
as the cold frost
hammers down from north
It takes many seasons to be seasoned, ha de Gött



Today was all about fast flowing water after a week with heavy rain and melting snow. I took a tour into Norway and the river Berbyelva. There was snow left on the river bank making it slippery. Dense vegetation so it was a bit of challenge to get clear shots. After walking in the still deep snow I found a spot to get some good shots playing with shutter speed.
Better to move safe than gracefully, ha de Gött!
