Today was a special day and it will take few years before it happens again, it was the 10/10-10! A very special date :3 And this spectacular day was a very grey and foggy autumn-sunday - but quite cosy :3

A nice autumn-walk
These cows were an audience while I photographed :3
In the countryside
Sigma 24mm f/2.8
It's so beautiful out here on the countryside, where my bf lives. I'm a towngirl and like to live central, being close to everythings. But we all know I do love nature too, and I become so serene when I'm out here. Love to go for walks and just enjoy myself and to do nothing in particular - it's wonderful!
Tried a new technique when it comes to editing, mixed with some I've done before. Kinda like it men I've not yet found the right way to use it, with my pictures and so on. But practice makes perfect ;)
Fullmoon
Sigma 70-300 f/4.0-5.6
It was a fullmoon, so beautiful and cosy! A bit strenghtening as well, somehow.. I sometimes sleep bad when the moon is full though, but that's ok :3
Greener with the Scenery
After rain comes the sun
Sigma 24mm f/2.8
After it quit raining and the clouds parted so the sun had a chance to show itself, just before it was to set, I took a walk in the forest that was lovely!
I see the sea [and some rocks]

We went on a outing today. First there was some shopping in cosy interiour design-shops [I bought a nice lantern and two lovely cups!]. Then we strolled through the harbour-area and looked at beautiful houses - there were a few of em'! I ran away from them for a while fo photograph the ocean again :3
I liked it there, were really dark stones [almost black] that looked nice against the bright sky and reflection in the water, too bad though that there were pretty big clouds. Booring texture on the sky, or how I should put it. But at least the sun fought to shine through a little!
Some flowers...
...and a butterfly.
Bridge over troubled water?
Was out for a walk yesterday and found this nice little bridge. Mostly I liked how the light fell and that the reflections were so clear in the water beneath.
Seas the Day
I will show some sea-related pictures I've taken :3
When it rains...

Off I go!
Today, at 07.00 in the morning, my flight to France, and Nice to be more precise, took off. So I got up really early in the morning [or late at night, depends on how you look at it] and checked my packing, and off I went. So todays pic will be from the plane, showing a landscape we flew over just before we landed. Some really nice, green and lush hills/mountains! :D

Earth Day 2010
The volcano Eyjafjallajökull recently had an eruption, which I think most people are aware of. we can never predict nature completely, and natures forces will always be stronger than us, and outsmart us. It has been a lot of discussions about the climate changes for quite some time now and must of us probably know, deep inside, that changes are happening due to us. Anywho, I really appreciate earth and like nature and to be outside and I've been thinking alot about this stuff today, since I found out it was earth day.
I did not now the exact date of it but If I am correct, it is now observed every year at the 22th of april.
Google are paying attention to this day :)
So today I have been out on my knees, lowered myself to the level of nature. And photographed it, both living things, some on it's way to blossom, and also dead parts of it. In honour to nature, but not only in a positive way, also as something sad.. because I really am sad of what's becoming of earth. At the same time I do know that we need to take from nature in order to survive, but I think we need to find better ways of doing it and also work more to give something back to nature, help it heal - restore some of what we are taking. And let nature have it's course. We cannot change it or decide how it should work - we are not gods.
And now, for the pictures:
