The mood in the forest a few days ago. Cold, clear and with a fantastic fragrance. Father-in-law went fishing yesterday and gave the catch to us. So this is a closeup of a 1,4 kilo-gädda (pike) ready to be served for dinner in the weekend. I got the honour of cleaning the beast this morning. Lucky me :/ Yesterday I passed a tree that made me think it shed paper-leaves. The ground was covered in them. They were green on one side (like any other “normal” leaf), and white, almost blue-ish on the back. I like it when nature surprises me with something I’ve never seen before – like leaves of paper. When I woke up this morning, the snow was falling, and so far, it hasn’t stopped. I don’t think the ground is cold enough for the snow to pile up and not melt… but at least it’s started falling now. I tried to document the mood in the garden, but it’s a bit tricky to [...] Joy and happiness! Today, the very first round of snow of the winter has fallen from the sky. What a great feeling to know that this is only the beginning! Everything looks amazingly pretty, all covered in a thin layer of white crispy snow – the leftover parsley in the garden is barely visible between [...] Today, I was in the “big city” and took lots of pictures of the old Swedish woodwork. This tree seems to match the classic Falu-red of the house. High-level colour-coorporation. Leftover red currant on a bush in my grand-mother-in-law’s garden. It’s the colours that I like – the red and the yellow. More nature art. I have stripped the appletree of its fruit – well… the ones I could reach. In lack of a wowen wicker basket with a red/white checkered lining (imagine that… how romantic), I used what I had at hand: my hat. Almost 2 kilos in total. So now I have to figure out if [...] I don’t mind the thought of a long cold winter when we have a garden shed stacked full of wood and logs… and a fireplace in the livingroom. In fact, I can’t wait for the snow to fall – and the hot chocolate to be poured. These days, there is no walking in the forest because of the hunting-season. So instead, I look at photos and imagine being there. |
