Snow, frozen in time



Last night as I drove home from a friend the weather suddenly changed. Black still evening sky turned into a snowswirl. I captured these falling snowflakes, frozen in time.

Fragile soul

I am here, again, in this dark place. The days come and go, I try my very best to get up out of bed, I remind myself to keep breathing and moving my fingers as if to assure myself that I am still alive.

The snow lingers as if to tease my already fragile soul, tease me to a slow but yet undeniable madness. Crystal bits, leftover snow, fall from my coat as I tremble in the wind.

I long for heated summer days, for seaside afternoons and midnight walks in the rain.

Please, dearest, you who say you hear my prayers, let me live til' then.

A little luxury



Sunday dinner with my aunt - homemade tzatziki, garlicbread, avocado and tomato sallad with red onions and olive oil, ovenbaked potatoes and lovely meat from elk. A sunday luxury :0)

Heavenly rolls





I made my aunt a visit today and to my great and utter happiness she was baking! I took some shots of these lovely babies before they were put in the freezer. I ate one too by the way... :0)

Longing for april

Yes!

I feel good today, very good! I have spent my day with friends, talking over tea and dining out. I went for a long walk in the forest this morning, clearing my mind. The air was cool and crisp and I felt happy for the first time in weeks.

Spring is here and everything will be brighter just because of that very fact. I cheered as I felt the bare road underneath my feet. Soon my favourite roads will be driveable again and I look forward to go exploring in the beginning of april.

I feel lucky, I feel blessed.

I listened to my inner voice, to my longing, letting my heart speak in tounges of love and I realized which path was right. Here I will stay.

Pine



Simplicity at its best!

Happy day



The sunlight warms my face as I stand below it. I feel happy.

Me and the city







Shots taken in a nearby town, the spring fashion is here and I feel like a child on christmas eve when I enter the shops!
The birds are singing, the snow is melting, the roads are bare - it's fabulous!

I think it's deutch





Another old bill, this time a deutch one.. well at least I think it is since it says "mark". It's very frail and thin, smells like old books from a time gone by. Very exciting!

Being ill

I am sick dear friends. High fever and a terrible tummyache. It's no fun being ill, I have spent my day in bed except for a visit at our nearby supermarket earlier this afternoon. I needed some milk you see.

Instead of a picture tonight I just wanted to wish you all a wonderful week. May it be filled with joy and laughter.

Now I shall crawl back into bed and sink deep into feverish dreams..

Texture



Today's capture - an old forgotten leaf in the back of my garage. I love the texture.

Dinner for two



Chicken with lime and lemonpepper, avocado, boiled eggs, tomatoes, mixed salad and pomegranate seeds! Just delicious!

A glance



One of my favourite shots so far. I call it " a glance" and the lovely model is Sandra.

Soft and real



I found this yesterday during one of my afternoon walks. Somehow this feather made me think about new beginnings, new opportunities and new chances in life. Let's be strong together and make the best out of everyday.

My all



The nights are tough, it starts when you close the door behind you and you're alone. When you come home from a long day of trying to shut out the pain. The walls seem to crawl closer and you have to concentrate really hard to not surrender to the darkness.

Anxiety - please leave. Please. I would give my all.

Mail



An old forgotten mailbox on a very cloudy day.

This is for Sandra



Yesterday was a good day. Lunch with a dear friend who lights up my life. Her name is Sandra and you've seen her before in other portraits here at misty. If you only knew what a lovely person she is. I feel blessed to have to have her in my life.

Sandra you are amazing, never forget that. There are no words for how much I appreciate your friendship. You are an angel!
