Theme Day. Photo of the year. Well, photos. One for every month in reverse order. So we start with a photo of the Af Chapman anchored at Skeppsholmen, photographed from The Katarina Elevator. The November scene comes from the ice rink at The King's Garden. For October, we walk up to Mariaberget on Södermalm and continue the walk along Monteliusvägen. I try to photograph this view over Riddarholmen a few times every year. It is often my background photo on my PC. A street portrait of Viking Superman posing for me at Drottninggatan is my pick for September. I spotted the tattooed juggler on a warm August day at Skeppsbrokajen. I added the hen party photo taken at Hötorget to the annual Flickr photo of the year thingy. So that is my July photo. A multitasking cyclist at Skeppsbron in the old town is my June pick. Bride & Groom at Stockholm City Hall works well for May. I visited the weekly flea market at Hötorget quite a few times, and I have a few photos of this regular. I find her very photogenic. A Spring sign for March with this photo of a blåsippa. The Hammarbybacken ski hill seen from Sickla is my photo for February. I walked up that hill a few times last year to photograph the views over Stockholm from up there. We finish with a photo of 79 & Park at Gärdet.
