Anastasia

 In the region where I live we have the benefit of lots of free concerts during the summer. And it's not always in the "capitol" of the region but in smaller places like Ingelstad that is the closest community from where I live as well. Ingelstad isn't a big city or so it lives about 2000 persons there. We have about 10 minutes by car to get there. 

Anyway a couple of weeks ago a rising star in the Swedish music industry was giving a free concert there, and I've been listening to her for a little while and really like her. So despite being way too tired we went to the concert, and boy I'm I glad that I did! A beautiful Swedish summer evening with actually one of the best concerts I've been to. Her voice and charisma is amazing. And she seemed very very nice as well. For once I had brought my main camera (Nikon Z6 III) with me and got some really nice shots that I wanted to share with you. 

I would also like to thank Anastasia of course for the amazing concert and Scensommar Växjö for arranging this. 

Colorful cups

For quite some time ago I bought a set of colourful cups that I had this idea of filling with flowers or berries and make a still life of. Well now I have completed all of the cups and why not give you a summary of how it turned out. Please tell me if you have a favourite. 

  

Colorful Tulips

 I found this lovely bowl online and just had to buy it (at Tradera). And when it arrived I realised that it would look great with spring flowers from the garden in it. So into the garden I went to pick flowers and make an arrangement.

Grape Hyacinth

 It's time for the next of my beautiful colourful cups to be used in a still life. It's spring time outside and I found some Grape Hyacinths that worked very well with my cobalt blue cup. 

Semla

 Ok so I guess you know that in Sweden we love our Swedish Fika and the weeks before Easter it's a pastry called Semla that is the big thing. I couldn't resist buying one the other day, and before it was eaten (it was delicious) I took this photo.

Sphere

 So I usually attend a group called Macro Mondays on Flickr. Every Monday there is a new theme and it has to be a macro photo. This week the theme was sphere. I had an idea and went on to find my old marbles. I really like the simplicity of this photo 

Moose tracks

 Went for a walk the other day and found these heart shaped moose tracks.
