Mirror Of Legend

DSCN9894-1

‘Do we walk in legends or on the green earth in the daylight?'
‘A man may do both,' said Aragorn. 'For not we but those who come after will make the legends of our time. The green earth, say you? That is a mighty matter of legend, though you tread it under the light of day!’ 
~ J.R.R. Tolkien ~

River Reflections

DSCN9632-1

DSCN9633-1

Our town has a lot of old factory buildings along the river. Many of them
are now being used for other purposes (like offices or schools or shops).

In Reflective Mood

 DSCN9615   DSCN9616

DSCN9614-1

I know I’ve published photos of this sculpture before, but here he is again, in a particularly reflective mood on a still October day.  His name is Bodhi and he was made in the image of his Creator; something which might be worth while to reflect upon every now and then.

On the building behind him you can see a little windmill decoration. “Röda Kvarn” [Red Mill] is an old cinema building, which is still in use, now owned by the town. Their ambition is to show quality films; old classics or films which the commercial cinemas don’t find profitable enough.

There are and were “Röda Kvarn” cinemas in a lot of Swedish towns. I don’t know if they were originally one special chain of cinemas; they don’t seem to be now. I guess originally the name was borrowed from the famous Moulin Rouge cabaret in Paris.

Light And Shadow

These pictures were taken under a motorway bridge crossing the river. Really, one of the most boring sights in town! – until you start exploring it through the eye of the camera…

Autumn Light

DSCN8890-1

DSCN8892-1

These two pictures were taken in late afternoon light within one minute of each other, in more or less the same spot. I can’t quite figure out why the light is so different in the two photos. I know I didn’t make any adjustments to the camera, so I suppose the sun came out from behind a cloud. The place is a pond in a big cemetery which is like a nature park with varied landscape.

Mosaic Monday: Church Reflections

2010 07 20 church window reflections

Same church as in yesterday’s post. Look carefully at the window. Part of what you see is the reflection of the view outside (compare the street photo), but at the same time you also see across the church room inside and get a glimpse of another window on the other side of the building. The church is from the 17th century but there was another church in the same spot since medieval times.

Tuesday Blue Reflections



I had a post last Tuesday that I called Tuesday Blues. I just picked that title out of nowhere, from the day of the week, and the colour of the flower in the picture. Then I thought maybe I could make a theme of it? But... then I googled it, and found it not to be a very good title to repeat... See the Urban Dictionary definition of the expression. Oh-oh, language is a tricky business sometimes...!

I'll skip the 's' in the Blue... and just try to find some things blue to post on Tuesdays, that's all...

This is a very dull and grey time of the year we're in right now - and for a number of months forward. Not a whole lot of colours to be found outdoors in Nature now, compared to summer and early autumn! Because of this, I might also resort to a trip or two down Memory Lane sometimes to pick up some "leftovers" from the more colourful seasons, to brighten up the greyness of the present... We'll see!

Today's picture, however, is from this month.
The lights are Within, the reflections are Without!

DawnTreader's Picture Book

For this blog, I have chosen a template that allows me to show pictures as big as possible . Some of the things you usually find in the sidebar, you will find here at the bottom of the page instead - Blog Archive, Followers etc.







My camera is a Nikon Coolpix 4600.
For basic editing of most photos and collages I use Picasa 3.
Sometimes I also experiment with some more "artistic" effects in Photoshop Elements or Paint Shop Pro.
