Super Soft

Trees never cease to amaze me, especially larches with their super soft needles.

I Ain't Gonna Hurt You

I Follow Rivers

Run deep, run wild.

I, I follow, I follow you.

Deep sea baby, I follow you.

I, I follow, I follow you.

Dark doom honey, I follow you.

Last Whispers of Perfection

Finally some snow! Ok, not as much as we are used to in this time of year, but at least we have been blessed with a couple of snowflakes this weekend. And I was really happy about it. I like to watch those tiny perfect snowflakes.

But little by little the perfection vanishes into the floor...

After The Rain

Marbles on trees ... after the rain.

Natural Silk

A treasure of silver and gold in the middle of nowhere. Stunning.

Teardrop

Water is my eye. Most faithful mirror… Teardrop on the fire.

Beautiful Dawn

Take me to the breaking of a beautiful dawn.

Take me to the place where we come from.

Take me to the end so I can see the start.

Frostwork

Christmas ornaments take many different forms, from a simple round ball to highly artistic designs. Well, I have found a very special ornament this years – a natural one. Do you recognize it? Yes, it's a frozen dandelion also known as blow-ball. I won't put it on my tree, but it's a nice photo for this year's Christmas cards.

And a Ney Year card:

Let's fly

Little Fly, 

Thy summer's play 

My thoughtless hand 

Has brushed away.

Am not I 

A fly like thee? 

Or art not thou 

A man like me?

                            (William Blake)

There are a few flaws, but I wanted to share it anyway since it's winter and I'll have to wait 4 or 5 months to get another chance of catching such reddish eyes again.

The Butterfly Effect

Small Heath (Coenonympha pamphilus)

The photo was taken on a sunny afternoon in my living room a few months ago. When I saw the butterfly I immediately got the idea of catching its reflection in the window. It took me about an hour to capture the right angle – not much if I consider the end result. So the next time you see a butterfly or a ladybird on your window, give it a try! You might be surprised how easy a ''Picture Perfect'' photo might be done.

Scars of Time

1, 2, 3 – How Old Are We?

Counting the spots to see how old they are? Stop.

Different ladybugs have different numbers of spots and the spots are with them all their life. They don't get more spots as they get older, nor do they lose spots. But if you're interested in their age: the spots do fade as they get older. :)

Feathers on a Rainy Day

Taken on a boring rainy day at a lake ... thanks to Photoshop the outcome was not so bad after all.
