Fly Agaric

 Trying to edit my autumn photos and found this on a single Fly Agaric. Love the colors!

Blue tit

 Been outside taking photos of the birds at our feeding station today. One of the most common is the Blue tit and also a bit of a favorite. A very cocky bird!

Christmas time!

I have spent some time this week creating Christmas still life photos. I really must do more flat lays, really satisfied with this. 

A cup of tea!

 It surely is autumn outside and a couple of days ago I took my warm cup of tea and went out and took this photo. 

The old books

 Bought these old books at a second hand shop and new that I needed to use them in a still life. Do you also get almost a Christmas feeling looking at this photo?

Autumn

 Autumn is definitely here with all it's lovely colors and mushrooms!

Halmstad Fotomara 2022

 So a couple of weeks ago this years photo marathon in Halmstad took place. I was there, this year it was quit tricky themes. We had a great day and though I didn't win any price this year I'm still happy with my contributions to the four different themes. 

Fokus/Focus

     

Kontrast/Contrast

Bländad/Dazzled

Svart på vitt/Black on white

Sunset

 Yesterday gave us this amazing sunset that I for the first time used ND-filter to photograph. 

Macro Mondays - Pink

 For the first time in ages I participated in Macro Mondays (on Flickr). For those of you how dosen't what that is I can tell you that it's a group on Flickr that every Monday has a brand new theme that you should take a photo according to in macro format. 

This week the theme was pink, and I went out in the garden and took a Mallow with me back in. I put this on a light board and got a really nice photo out of it. 

Summer in the Birch forest

Took this photo when we visited a place that is very special for my daughter in law. I do understand why she loves this place so much. 

Digitalis purpurea

 I finally got my Tamron 90 mm SP back from upgrading it so I can use it on my new camera. And I do think my new combo is delivering. 

Strawberries

 One of the best things about summer, except vacation of course, is Strawberries. I just love these red beautiful berries and are eating as much as I can before they are gone again. 

Zebra

 Went to a zoo in the community close to where we live. Took this portrait of a Zebra. 

Tulips

 Went to a place where you could pick Tulips and got these beauties with me home. 

King Bed Lily

 Yesterday we went to Osaby to finally see King Bed Lilys. This small beautiful little flower that I have never seen in real life before. 

Pink Rose

 Bought myself some pink mini roses the other day and just had to take a macro of one of them. 

Sparkler

 Today I have been playing with a lightbulb and a sparkler and really like how it turned out. 

Coffee pot

 Last weekend we went to a very big flea market not that far from where we live. I found these adorable cups and the coffee jug belonging to them. 

Old book take 2.

 That old book is so beautiful that it needs som more attention. Here in another version. 

Tulip

 Tulips are one of my favourite flowers. I got this beauty for Valentine's. 

Ranunculus

 Took some photos of this single Ranunculus and thought it looked extra nice in black and white. 

Old Book

 One of our sons got this book from his grandmother when she was moving house, I had a photo in my head and when I got these beautiful flowers for Valentine's Day I could finally take it. 

Fruit bowl

 Since I like my new fruit bowl so much I decided that it needed to be photographed. 

Old weathered barn

 I have taken lots of photos of the years of this barn, but just now noticed the beautiful gradient of old tree versus paint. Looks like a gradient on the wall. 

Goat

 Christmas is over and a new year has begun. I have a lot of photos that hasn't been edited from last summer and here is a throwback to a visit to Grönåsens Älgpark.
