Friday the thirteenth

Still a thin layer of ice covering the Lower Lake at the Rudan nature reserve. One not so clever guy tried ice fishing on Friday the 13th. Didn't end well. But he did survive.

Anemone hepatica

I was wearing my Winter outfit yesterday as it was surprisingly cold in the Spring sunshine. Biking past a couple of places, the Iron Age grave field at Jordbro and the birch forest at Håga where you normally can spot Blåsippa, Anemone hepatica, I had to use my hawk eyes to see anything, but at Håga I finally did. So I spent a few minutes locating a few photogenic plants and here are two of them. They were still hiding under last years Autumn leaves, but in a few days time people without hawk eyes will probably also see them.

Shades of blue

My last photo from beach week at Årsta Havsbad. Theme day at city daily photo. One color.

Give it a few days

The ice is melting away quickly now at the Hårsfjärden bay in Haninge,(part of the Baltic sea). But maybe you should wait a few days until you try the dive tower. This was the scene from one of the piers at my favorite beach, Årsta Havsbad on Sunday.

The Terrace

This massive project will take at least five years to finish. It is called Haningeterrassen and can be found in down-town Handen. The first building, Brf Blicken is up, many more to come, including the underground bus station. This is 4 photos stitched together, shot with my latest purchase, the Sigma 105mm macro lens.

A sign of Spring

Two days ago snow cowered the lawn in front of the house here at Bergdalen in Tungelsta, but arriving home this afternoon I spotted the first crocus of the season. It has been two warmish days here with blue skies and maybe up to 7C. And that's all that this crocus needed. So hurrah for Spring!
