As usual I don´t know the name of this beautiful flower I photographed in Costa Rica almost 2 years ago. I´d like to know the name if anybody knows it.

Shadow of the curtain

NF Photo 120610

Today I chose an image I took on my balcony in June. It is this kind of ordinary stuff you don´t even consider nice. This is used to shelter the balcony from strong and hot sun. In the evening, as the sun set, this shadow appeared. Thought it was quite nice for a moment. So, here it is. :)

Hunting for fish
NF Photo 121011 Krämbol

Taking the walk over the new bridge I saw this cat very concentrated on the small fish in the water. I doubt it could catch any dinner on that location.

Building in progress, seems pretty stationary to me. But according to rules it should be possible to dismantle in an day.

 

Steel wire

Rotten!

This path is NOT littered by men. But the rest are.

K Ä K   stands for Katrineholms Adventure Club.  Nowadays some Lajv groups rent (?) the area.  They pretend they live some 800 years back or so. But they obviously don´t know a thing about it. And they are certainly not skilled carpenters. Planks laying around and ropes all over the place. No tools actually to my surprise. The place looks like a trash dump. And it makes me ashamed on their behalf. Do they really think people lived like that in the past? What I show here is only a fraction of what is dumped there.

In the past years I always met a lot of people hiking the woods. Yesterday I only met one. Despite the fact it was a wonderful day and also muchroom picking time. More people then I think this area is spoiled. I know, it is great people have things to do that is wothwile. This group also work with children. But they have to learn to respect nature, the forest and other people. This is not a closed private area.   :(

Eskilstuna roundabout fountain

  Click to enlarge

NF Photo 121001 Eskilstuna

I have spent the better part of the evening trying to find out something about this fountain sculpture in a neighbouring town I visited today. I did not find a name for it but I found the artist. His name is Sivert Lindblom and from the info I know that the obelisk carries his facial profile. :)  The obelisk is 19.5m in hight. There are 6 urns with interesting waterflows.  And a couple of smaller objects as well. I have more shots of course that I will post later on. I´m actually thinking of going there when it is dark. Probably very nice. :)
This artist had designed The Nobel Monument in New York as well.

I thought this shadow was quite powerfull when I saw it. The tree is larger then it seems on this photo. And there is three of them.   I think the farmer loves them as well. :)

A different kind of fence. I liked  the graphic look of it. It surrounds one of the small cottages in the allotment area.

Weeds taking over - Ogräset tar över

Click to enlarge

NF Photo 120727 Tornstugan o Sjöholm.

Weeds taking over. Every year it becomes more and higher. Dispite the fact this place inhabit some young cows, you can´t see it. No sign of grazing. The path, that once was broad and easy to walk is getting narrower by the week. It was made to be good for wheelchairs! The Greylag geeze is gathering already ans even at this location the weed is taking over. Only the little Large White seem to like it. They are increasing in numbers.
.

Ogräset tar över. För varje år verkar det bli bara mer och högre. Trots att det går ungdjur här så märks det inte på växtligheten.Och vägen som en gång var bred växer också igen. Den var gjord för rullstolar! Grågässen samlas redan och även här är ängen full med ogräs. De enda som verkar gilla det är kålfjärilarna som ökar i antal.
