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!
Snow landscape covered in white under a cold blue sky.
Ha de Gött!
They said I was getting too hot, blowing my fuses
Don’t make such fuzz, just go with the buzz
All winter sleep it off, hibernate
I was getting worked up, would not take more abuses
Fake news, just a bunch of lies to uz
There’s no winter, I will debate
Challenge, but don’t be foolish, ha de Gött!
These bright red berries under the snow sits on the Guelder Rose (Viburnum opulus). In Swedish Olvon. The berries does not taste very well so they are left on the up to five meters high bushes even during winter. They are edible in small quantities even if it’s toxic causing vomiting and diarrhea. It has a distinct acidic taste. Used in nature medicine to relieve muscle cramps.
Don’t judge by the exterior, ha de Gött!
They say that every snowflake is unique. Makes me wonder who’s been checking them all? True or not, King Frost has an amazing ability to create fantastic displays. Together with the low standing suns amazing light, this was on display yesterday.
Stop, you will see beauty around you, ha de Gött!
The low standing winter sun and night frost creates this exiting light. Tomorrow is winter solstice when sun rises 09:06, barely makes it over the horizon before it sets again 15:21. Then the light starts to come back again. Still the sun wins over Jack Frost and creates a mist over the fields.
Where there is darkness there is light, decide which you want to be. Ha de Gött!
Water is faschinating but frozen it’s amazing. King Frost swept in during the night and created this lovely work of art.
I could not decide if it came out best in color or in monochrome. What do you think?
Stay cool, ha de Gött!
Winter decided to head back north but we managed to create some art in the melting snow on Sunday. Today they are all melted away. It was a fun time together with my son and his cousin.
Stay cool, create. Ha de Gött!
Sometimes you don’t have to make that long hike to get that fantastic image. Last Teams meeting in my home office I open the blinds to see this. So now you know. If someone suddenly drops out of the meeting they run out with the camera. Two minutes after this was taken it was gone. Time stamp 16:34.
Mother Nature’s continuous art exhibition, ha de Gött!
