Lipstick
Statue of the Swedish national poet Evert Taube with the ship Viking and the building called the Lipstick in the background. I let your own imagination figure out why it is called that. This 86 meter building stand in the clay on piles that had to be driven over 90 meters down.
You cannot call yourself Swedish if you can’t sing at least one of Evert Taube’s song. He wanted to be seen as a poet and writer but is know by most as singer-songwriter. He was born 1890 in Göteborg and he grew up at Vinga lighthouse outside the port of Göteborg. As a young man he sailed the seven seas and spent time in Argentina. A theme he often returned to in his writing. Many of his works has been translated into English. There are some links available on Wikipedia.
While the boat still sails on, ha de Gött!

Burning horizon
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!

Black and white boat
wind and water cascade
got the colours to fade
in grey beautifully made
All is needed in the spectrum, ha de Gött!

Water show
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!

Winter river
Alder trees leaning over the cold water. Or are they trying to hang on? Enningdalselva, Norway.
Lean on, but don’t lean to heavy. Ha de Gött!

Flowing water
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!
