Everglades, we were so lucky we saw several alligators in their natural habitat, one came up right next to me as the boar was still – i can say I that I jumped a bit. I am rather proud of capturing this alligator with the baby alligator next to it. 
A fact, I love the ocean. Just love it!
Great places to chill…
My specialty has never been photographing birds, but these birds were big enough for me to capture.
Color splash continues, here are some colorful and affectionate Rainbow Lorikeet’s
One more day of grayness at home, it is wonderful to look at the colorful parrots we saw on our last trip to Florida.
Not the loveliest looking bird, the Pelican , but it sure has a presence you cannot ignore.
As I few posts back I said, that I will start this year with sunshine and fond memories of my last visit to Florida until my new visit, where I will create new sunny memories. I love the sun, beaches, ocean. Nature. Trees, birds, butterflies. I am not a winter person even though I live here in the north. Lets sail into the sunset!
We ended the year in blue and white tones, Lets start this year of wit a splash of warm colors.
Hi all,
it is nearly new year and I decided to make a bold move. I changed my theme here on WP – what do you think? My aim was to lessen the clutter and give the spotlight on my photos.
As you know I am not a writer, I don’t have that much to say at least I do not think that too many would be interested in my rambling style of writing. My writing reflects the clutter in my mind, hopping and popping from one thought to an other. So to get a something other than a mind flow kind of text from me here is a challenge. I reserve that to my work. This is for my photos, the way I see the world through my lens.
As a hint of the coming month – I am once again picking a theme. I will be visiting friends in Florida in January, so my photos will be filled with sunshine and sights. I am posting some photos from my previous trip to begin with and when I get there, my uploads will all from my mobile as I an not going to carry my laptop with me – you know I will be on holiday.
The reflection on a train window – not something I get to photograph that often or that it would come to my mind to do so, but it is November. And the sun was shining again today. That is a wow factor for sure!
I love these crooked pine trees that the wind and weather has shaped.
Yesterday was a beautiful day and I visited Porkkalanniemi in Southern Finland and took some photos of the beautiful landscapes we have we have there. So in the coming days I will be posting photos I took there,I hope you enjoy them.
Sometimes you take photos as mundane as pics from the grocery store. What can I say, no logic, no reason, just because…
Old milieu of Strömfors Ruukki ( Ironworks area) old building in a beautiful setting.
