Peaceful in pink
I’m going away to Montenegro and Croatia with the kids for a week —
To see new horizons and sights.
In the meantime, I leave you with
A pretty, pink sunset down at the lake.
(I won’t be around to comment on your blogs for about ten days.
But don’t worry, Our World will be up and running as normal!)

And, of course, Our World!
Shard reflections
The Shard is an iconic skyscraper in London:
95 stories high (306 metres tall), it’s made up of 11,000 glass panels,
And reflects the clouds. (It was very hot, and cloudy when I was there.)
While I was in London, I came across the Shard in unusual places –
Here it is glimpsed from an alleyway on the other side of the river.
On my last night, the sun finally burst through the cloud cover
Giving me a gorgeous view of the Thames and the Shard.

Balloon sunset
My Saturday nights are fairly exciting 🙂 :
They consist of watching
The sun setting over the lake:
Preferable with a burnt orange sky
And balloons gently floating away on the horizon.

Burnished gold
Another golden sunset:
Trees marching across the horizon;
The burnished copper of the lake
Is still.
I gaze at the scene
In wonder.

Moody sky
Monday evening — I look out of the tube window as we go overground.
I see the drama in the sky and the pastel buildings of Stockholm.
Take out my phone and snap a quick photo.

Golden wonder
A perfect April evening …
A golden sunset
Where the heart is filled
With joy and wonder.

Before the melt
Guess what? The ice has melted!
But only a few days ago, it lay thick
Under a blanket of fluffy clouds.
Ruby loves jumping on stuff and posing —
And I love taking snaps of her when she does.

De-light
It’s still very cold in the mornings and evenings (below zero) —
But oh, what a joy it is
To see the light returning in shades of orange
And lilac.

Feeling blue
The snow is gradually melting away —
But only last week, it lay thick in the fields
Below a blue canopy of silk.
For more blue-tiful skies, please go to: Skywatch.
Spring: Viking-style
Afternoon sunset
Finds us enjoying the cold.
The setting sun
Brings lilac with it
And tones of
Frozen gold.
