National Day
6 of June is the National Day of Sweden and in beautiful Havstenssund the flags are up. The celebration is very moderate and most people spend the day with family, gardening or walk in the nature. I guess it’s a typical for the Swedish mentality, lagom, not too much and not too little.
Five hundred years ago the first Swedish king Gustav Wasa was appointed by the church, king by the grace of God, supported by rich merchants from the Lübeck Hansa. Gustav Wasa was a dictator but he reformed the way the nation was administrated. Somethings lives on still today, so in a way he founded the Swedish democracy.
We are nations but above all, citizens of the Earth, ha de Gött!

Acrobat
This little juniper bush (Juniperus communis) has chosen a spectacular place to grow. Like an acrobat it balances on the cliff, and to honour it so did the photographer to get this picture.
Sometimes there’s no other choice but to hang on, ha de Gött!

Backlit
Did some experimenting with the light using the most beautiful flower as a model. Not only is the model beautiful but she also has the most beautiful name, Lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis). In Swedish Liljekonvalj. I hope the picture made her justice.
The more I try, the more luck I have. Ha de Gött!

Shades
Spring shades of green mixed with the shades of blue in the water and the oncoming thunder clouds. I made it ashore from the island before the thunder storm hit but, I had to give the boat full throttle.
Open sea and thunder is not a good mix, ha de Gött!

Sheep Trick
The sheep’s giving a performance for us during our evening walk. A manifestation of life. The best pieces you have to reach for but, also that it’s easier to reach your goals with collaboration.
Lend that helping hand and grab on to the one offered, ha de Gött!

Blank
Not only the water surface was blank, so was also the sky. Clear skies is the landscape photographers nightmare. After struggling with myself I decided that this picture work with the blank water surface sorrounded by the rocks.
What do you think, please give me your feedback in the comment field.
Embrace the stillness and let your mind go blank, ha de Gött!
