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. 

Forest Gnome

 Always use your imagination when you go out for a photo walk and you will see things you hardly can believe.. That's how I met a forest gnome on my walk yesterday. 

Crocus

 It's spring outside! Hard to resist the colourful Crocuses in the garden!

Grey Lichen

 Today I took my macro lens out to the forest and found this little grey lichen. 

Flowers

 Yesterday I went on a bouquet binding class, a short but very nice one and this is what I came home with. 

Wild meadow

 We are trying to create a wild meadow with flowers for the bees and butterflies and it's really starting to look like I had imagined. 

Snowdrops

 At last some of the spring flowers are here in my garden in the south of Sweden! Love these simple little Snowdrops. 

Another Blue tit

 This poor little blue tit got all his feathers in disorder by the wind today!

Mushroom

 Autumn is here and with some help with layers and overlays I edited this to a magic forest with mushroom in it. 

Street photography

 I wanna feel more comfortable and get better on street photos. This one is taken in Gamla Stan, Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. 

Lily of the Valley

 So small, yet so beautiful!

Portrait of a Great tit

 This little cute Great tit sat in the apple tree outside our house. 

Coal tit

 Right now we have so many birds at our feeding station, but I have a little favorite and it's the Coal tit. Here in black and white. 

Spring in the Beech forest

 Just a friendly reminder that it soon will look like this again in our forests. This is from Bjurkärr a part of Åsnens Nationalpark. 

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!

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. 

Autumn

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

Sunset

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

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.
