Blueberry leaves

It is truly amazing to watch how natures color change through the year. Take the blueberry plant, in spring its leaves are all bright green and full of vitality. And through the summer the plant is using all its energy to flourish and produce sweet berries. When the berries are ripe and someone have picked them or they have just fallen to the ground the leaves color change from bright green to deep red, purple and blue.

October mood

Grey clouds
the grass is brown
colorless
and all wet

still nature
keep being beautiful
not in colors
but in shapes

a field of ferns
resembling lace
and brighten
my October mood


Spider

Little spider
guards the web
like a mighty queen
await vibrations
from a tiny insect to be seen

Little spider
never to be beaten
its beautiful web
a golden trap
for the tiny insect to be eaten

White water lily

Nymphaea alba

Water lilies is one of the most beautiful plants I know. This shot is also one of my best shots. It is from Lillomarka just outside Oslo when I went on a walk with a very good friend of mine. I used a 300 mm Nikon lense, lying flat in the swamp to avoid any unwanted movements.

I hope you also enjoy this beautiful and mysterious flower.

Late summer

Scandinavian summer
is the short kind
like a visitor
in a hurry

July is almost over
late summer
with signs of
autumn's arrival

Beautiful August
bring warm colors
to make up for
cold and dark evenings

Ladybird

Little red bug
fluttering about
resting in
colorful gardens
and flowering fields
making children
shouting happy
summertime
is just the best
