Going to Öland

 The rape fields are glorious right now :)

An old stone but I don´t know the history behind it.

I see this one every time I drive to my daughter. It is about halfway. This day I decided to stop and take a few shots even if there is no good place to park the car. I had to be quick.

 I have no idea whatsoever why it is built like this. Except for the old machine it leaves no clue.

I went to Öland last Monday. This is some critters I saw going down. The damselflies is at a place where I usually take a brake. The deer was sleeping at Ottenby, My last stop before going to the hostel.  The Dunlins was far from sleepy! The number of vaders in one shot is more then I ever see the entire season around my home. Love it!

They arrived three days ago! And... I can still catch them. It is a challenge every year to see if I am still able to catch them. The older I get the harder it is. Still I measure my heath by it! Nothing wrong with my eyes and reactions so far. But I get tired quicker. Just wish I had a better camera.

The image in the post last week was from last year at the same location.

When I saw this image in my files I felt stupid. This was the only shot I took that day. I liked the look of the milk churns standing there, still waiting to be filled with milk. But that will never happen again. This is a part of my childhood, long gone. Today they are only decorations!

The ruin of an old church in Björkvik about 25 km from my home is used for open air activities in summer. In summer there are usually some Common swifts nesting in the walls and I love to try to capture them in camera.
