Sun dogs
Ruby is getting her mojo back
And enjoying our lake sunsets again.
Under supervision, she jumps up
On rocks for treats.
And, of course, both dogs
Are used to our photo sessions at sunset.
For more patient creatures, please go to: Our World Tuesday.
Orange love
One day, a golden light burst onto the scene.
Ruby kindly posed (along with a strange shadow creature).
The sky drew lines and swirls
Against an orange background
As the dashing duo posed in the hope of a treat.
Please note: I’m only posting once this week due to work (am away filming) and taking care of Ruby. She had a uterus infection and had to have an emergency operation to remove her uterus and ovaries. The operation was a success, but she needs looking after.
For more dashing stories, please check out: Our World. (I’m the host!)
And later on in the week, visit: Skywatch.
Sunset love
A stunning purple sunset —
And puppy kisses:
What could be better?

Swim time!
One of the dogs’ favourite places for a swim
Is the jetty next to the floating sauna on our local lake.
I like it too —
Because of all the photo opportunities it gives!
It’s a peaceful place in the early mornings,
Where you can meditate on clouds and their reflections.
(Photos taken in early May.)

Home is where the heart is
I had a wonderful time away —
But there is something special about coming home to familiar sights.
Home is where the heart (or sunset) is.

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

Fare thee well, winter?
Winter seems to be waning —
I say ‘seems’ as this is Sweden and it can snow even in June!
But I don’t think we will see scenes like this one again this winter:
With thick snow on the iced over lake.
It’s cold in the mornings,
So, if we are lucky,
We can still enjoy rim-frosted green lanterns
And diamond-studded
Golden fur.
For more wintry or spring-like or even autumn shots, please visit: Our World.
Spring: Viking-style
Afternoon sunset
Finds us enjoying the cold.
The setting sun
Brings lilac with it
And tones of
Frozen gold.
For more spring shots, please go to: Skywatch.
Spot the …
Ruby loves to play hide-and-seek
Among the trees –
While Simmie says
Peekaboo with snow.
What about this photo –
Can you spot the dog?
What about now? Only teasing –
I think this is a fox we spotted in the field.
It was lying down in the snow and got up with difficulty.
It was much bigger than Simmie so, at first, I thought it was a wolf.
We looked at each other for a long time – each of us not so different from the other.
Then we went our separate ways.
For more furry and non-furry shots, please visit: Our World.
Winter joy
When winter gives you freezing cold temperatures
And lots of snow,
The best thing is to embrace it
And smile —
And meet it with wonder and joy.
For more smiles, please go to: Our World.
