SUMMER CONTINUED


Little travels with dear friends in the North Sea. Sunny, golden sparkles everywhere. Underwater carpets with gentle waves.


Peeking welcomers, white peaks.


Jules, a rescue seal welcoming on the shore. Almost as relaxed as a bit Northern cousin.


A bird island, a lighthouse island. A sunny island. A bunny island.


Golden towers, warm sea breaths.


Miniature forests.


And how it would look like when the sun sets and the storm starts. Fog signals on each end of the island.


Two lighthouses blinking. Messages through storms and darkness.


Still summer, though most of the birds had gone. A few swimmers, shags. A few swallows. Mostly silent.


Meadow island. Sea scents.


And a fresh water loch with a view. Golden glimmering everywhere.

Today the autumn arrived. Soft long sleeves, pitch black starry skies. Swimming in a lake watching the Milky Way. Happy September!

POLAR SUMMER POSTCARDS


The mining village that was abandoned, and looked after by the glacier. The light on the glacier that coloured the whites, the greys and the turquoises. The sea that had white peaks on waves once in a while. 


A walk to pass mountains. To a valley with a lake and a red house. Tea water boiling, a greeting message on the table from the previous visitor. Beds to sleep. Small glacier streams close by. Reindeers on the moss. All so silent. The thought about the backyards of mountains, what lies there?


Mountain Avens, a hint of blue sky. Peeking glaciers on all directions. The sound of running water in the glacial streams.


A night boat trip. The light at midnight. The reflections of the glacier so alive. By boat, going around small ice floes. Curvy water road. Puffins, Little Auks.


The silence with songs of birds. Searching for the deepest turquoise. Secrets for sure.


A night floater, brushing his/her beard.


Water roads

Night boat trip adventures. 

Happy August, have a calm weekend!
