Waiting

Waiting

I was waiting for the sun rays to hit the cliff Havsten in the distance. Clear skies over the ocean and clouds over the inland got my hopes up when I climbed the hill. After two hours in the freezing wind and when the ants started to chew on me I had to give up.

Patience is a virtue but not when you turn blue, ha de Gött!

Sunbathing

Sunbathing

A Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), Storskarv in Swedish, spreading its wings in the sun, probably to dry up after a dive for fish. This large black bird can be found all over the world in different variations. Hunted to near extinction as it is considered a competitor for fishing but has recovered well after hunting ban.

Too much or too little spoils everything, ha de Gött!

Lighthouse Bissen at Bisse Rännan a calm summer evening. This is the south entrance to Sweden’s first marine nature preserve, Kosterhavets Nationalpark. The preserve meets up with Ytre Hvaler on the Norwegian side at the north end. The 250 meter deep fjord is the home of one of only two coral reefs in Sweden. The low salt content in the water from the Baltic meets the high salt content water from the Atlantic, powered by the Golf Stream, creating rich living conditions under the water.

To navigate is necessary, ha de Gött!

One of my favorite motives, the Väcker lighthouse. This time from the sea. Even with the calm weather there was waves. Not easy to take photos from a small boat.

Red, Green and Blue, ha de Gött!
