Foggy Friday

I was driving in the countryside and once again stopped at this lake in Vols as I’ve done many times before, it looked different as the fog was there to do its magic. This Foggy Friday looks good in pictures.

Searching for sunlight

Yesterday we saw also other colors than blue, grey and white in various tones. A small orange light around midday was to give hope of  better. These still mostly are the blue grey tones, also very beautiful, absolutely, but at this point in the winter a sunny day would be just awesome. Al photos can be enlarged by a click.

Frozen leaf

I was totally surprised this weekend, I woke up in the morning and the temperature was -8C, way too cold for my liking, but I did find some great photo opportunities; like these frozen leaves.

Cold night

We had a cold night, and the water in our water barrel froze  and created beautiful  art. These photos have not been edited, this is what the camera caught…

Värikollaasi #169 – Color Photo-collage

2-2014-03-01 1-2014-03-04

The idea in this challenge is to use 3-4 colors from the sample, I’ve added the sample colors into the photo-collage. I aim to use the original colors in the photos, that way it is more challenging to find the colors. This is what I came up with this week.
