Thematic Sweden: Fika i november

Kveld ved vatnet
EVENING BY THE LAKE
Kvelden har
gjeve dagen fri.
EVENING HAS
GIVEN THE DAY OFF.
Ro.
SILENCE.
Berre eit
stille vak
ONLY A
QUIET FISH JUMP
gjennom
vassflata.
THROUGH
THE WATER'S SURFACE.
Myrke tretoppar
i kontur mot
himmelranda
i møte med
ei ny natt.
DARK TREETOPS
IN CONTOUR AGAINST
HORIZON
IN THE MEETING WITH
A NEW NIGHT.
Ei natt
berre slik
fjellet
gjev det.
A NIGHT
ONLY LIKE
THE MOUNTAIN
GIVES IT.

My album of beautiful reflections:
It's a beautiful thing, wandering around on mornings like this. This shot is from last weekend, but this morning is just as beautiful. I found a nice poem about mornings like this:
Morgonglede
MORNING JOY
Det er slik ein vakker morgon
IT IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MORNING
då heile verda syng!
WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD SINGS!
Eg vassar i fjellkjørr og eine
I WADE IN SHRUBLAND AND JUNIPER
og over mose og lyng.
AND OVER MOSS AND HEATHER.
Brått flaksar ei rype or lynget.
SUDDENLY A GROUSE FLAPS OUT OF THE HEATHER.
Som om ho har skadd ein veng,
AS IF SHE HAS HURT A WING,
brukar ho berre den eine,
SHE ONLY USES ONE OF THEM,
medan den andre heng.
WHILE THE OTHER ONE HANGS.
Eg er ikkje lett å lure,
I'M NOT EASY TO FOOL
eg veit at ho gjer seg til
I KNOW THAT SHE'S PLAYING ME
fordi eg er nære reiret -
BECAUSE I AM CLOSE TO THE NEST -
Og eg blir ståande still.
AND I AM STANDING STILL.
Ilt er å sjå og høyre
IT'S PAINFUL TO STAND AND LISTEN
korleis ho klagar seg.
TO HOW SHE COMPLAINS.
Eg freistar å herme låten,
I TRY TO IMITATE THE SONG.
og ungane flokkast kring meg!
AND THE BABY BIRDS FLOCK AROUND ME!
Du trur meg vel ikkje kan hende?
MAYBE YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME?
Eg veit ikkje kva du gjer.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DO.
Men fem kyllingar renn gjenom lynget
BUT FIVE CHICKENS RUN THROUGH THE HEATHER
og kjem meg så nær, så nær!
AND COME SO CLOSE, SO CLOSE TO ME!
Det er mest så eg græt av glede
IT'S ALMOST LIKE I CRY FOR JOY
for dette som eg får sjå.
BECAUSE OF WHAT I GET TO SEE.
Rypemor treng ikkje reddast
THE MOTHER GROUSE DON'T NEED TO BE RESCUED
for reiret med alle dei små.
BECAUSE OF THE NEST WITH ALL THE LITTLE ONES.

My album of beautiful reflections:
Stillhet means quietness in English and it was an evening with stillhet. Me, my camera and a beautiful sunset.
En stille kveld ved Lysefjorden, ved Os/Bergen
A nice evening in Lysefjorden nearby Os, Bergen - Norway.

You got to make the morning last. Just kicking down the cobble stones. Looking for fun and feelin' groovy!

Ikke så veldig originalt dette bidraget, men på fredag tok jeg av klokken, og vandret rundt i stillheten i skogen, og bare lekte meg med kameraet....herlig!
Ps. Jeg må få kommentere de andre bidragene i kveld eller i morgen

No new uploads from me for a couple of weeks or so now... But I will most likely stop by here on Flickr every now and then!
All there is to say is that I want a car. As simple as that.
Without a car, I cannot get to places like these!! Oh, I'm looking forward to when Stine gets a car so that I can drive her to work (5 mins from where this photo was taken) and then spend hours exploring the fabulous archipelago of Øygarden!

Even though I've lived in a nice coastal town for 11 years now, 2,5 hours by car from here, this place is still what I call home. Love to spend several weeks of my summer vacation here!

More images from this island I'm from:
Valborgsmässoafton och majbrasor i varenda stad. Även i lilla Tystberga hade vi en en liten brasa för allmänheten. Ett 50-tal som stod och såg elden sprida sig upp mot himlen och lyssnade till kyrkans kör.
Detta får bli mitt bidrag till Fotosöndag denna vecka. Försökte få till lite bilder under en skogspromenad i dag med mina mellanringar och Samyang 85mm f/1,4 men hade barnen med mig så det blev dåligt med stillhet och långa slutartider ;0)
Mitt bidrag till tema: Detaljer
Mycket nöje!

When I am dead and over me bright April
Shakes out her rain-drenched hair,
Though you should lean above me broken-hearted,
I shall not care.
I shall have peace, as leafy trees are peaceful
When rain bends down the bough,
And I shall be more silent and cold-hearted
Than you are now.

“Yesterday is but a dream, tomorrow but a vision. But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day. Such is the salutation to the dawn.”
As I am rearranging this page, I found this pic, taken almost a year ago.
This is what I learned today:
Taken one year ago, and I just wanted to repost this, so you all can have a look at this. I just love this path:)
No awards, please, as this is kind of a reposting a pic:)
