A Photo a Week Challenge: Summer Memories
This is the path to our summer-house for the past 19 years. One of the best moments every sunny day is breakfast and coffee outside on the patio. I see this view, watch the light play through the trees,watch the shadows move, listening to the birds, nature, When the kids were young, the silence, no fights coffee before they woke up …best moment of the day.

Monochrome Madness 16 – Details of a field sawmill
This is my week 15 submission to the Monochrome Madness Challenge hosted by Leanne Cole and Laura Macky.
I saw this field sawmill beside a country road, as we were searching for old lumber, as always, I had to take photos. My first thought was that these would look good in black and white. Do you agree?
Watching passing boats at sea.
Beautiful morning at sea, sunny skies, warm temperatures. Boats passed us by as we headed to Tallinn, these are taken on the coast of Helsinki . So Welcome to Wednesday at sea!
