Strange times theses days with covid-19 ruling our lives. Working remote and not seing any of our friends as often as we used to makes our life quite different from a normal everyday life. Luckily nature goes on with normal procedures like spring. This year I think I have enjoyed spring more than ever due to the situation with the earlier mentioned virus. In nature I can relax and do some of the things I love the most, like photography and walk my dog, Charlie Brown. My earlier mentioned trip to China was cancelled due to the corona-situation, så there will be no post from China. Maybe later, I am not sure because so much has changed since February.

It has been a long time since I posted and a long time since I posted macro-shots, but todays post I have a few macro shots to share together with my beloved sheltie; Charlie Brown 🙂

Blue anemone hepatica – blue

…..and pink

The first spring flower in Norway is often Anemone hepatica, it normally is blue or white but sometimes you can find pink versions too.

Anemone nemorosa comes a few weeks later than Anemone hepatica but is just as beautiful. My sheltie, Charlie, always look after squirrels when we go for forest walks.
