Looking at some windows

Here you have three different windows from old buildings here in Sweden, the first one is from an old barn that is in ruins.

And this one here is also an old barn, but half of it is still standing, with a roof.

It was used to be a an imposing building, built over 200 years ago, painted in red, Falu rödfärg.

Here you have an old, smaller house that now is falling apart, the window give you a glimpse of what is behind the building too.

My cat again

Here you have two new pics of my cat Kisse, he is looking out of the window from my workspace.

He prefer to just look out these cold days, when he goes out is just for a very short time.

And here is one more of Kisse, at my window, as he is just now.

Art in the window

My mother Gunvor's art is really everywhere, here one piece of her ceramic work is in this window.

It is another one that is made of her inspiration from Mother Earth. It is a really big seedpod.
Made a page on Facebook with my mothers things:

First Sunday of Advent

Today we light up all the christmas candles - the real ones and the electric ones as uoy can see in the pictures here.

Because today is the first Sunday of Advent, a tradition here in Sweden that make us light up!

We have almost one Christmas light in every window. As you can se here.

Cat looking out

It is just to cold and dark to be outside these days, we are just waiting for the snow, not even the cat want to go out.

So I understand him, staying inside, and just looking out is better. So much better.

Sculpture in the window

The sculpture you see here is of course made by my late mother Gunvor. Now it is watching out from the window - normally during summer it's moved outside. Love to have sculptures in my garden.

But this year it was so rainy and cold that se, the woman sculptured in ceramic, that she remained inside. Looking out to the garden. :)

Cat inside

And here is my cat Kisse inside, wanting to go out. He love to be in one of the windows, and chek out what is happening outside. When he is not there.

But on the other hand, today he did not want to go out at all, it is raining...

And here is a story of a cat outside:

In my window

Here is to all of you! A vase full of perfumed Lilac's, or Syringa Vulgaris as it is called in latin.

Love those - take them inside as soon as I can. The vase is old and come from my family.
We call the flower's Syren.

Ruins can be beautiful

I admit, ruins can in some strange way appeal to me, it has that feeling of times passed and that everyting has and end. Sad but interesting, ruins can really be beautiful.

Like these photos from a house in old wood here in the Swedish country side.

A window.

A view - from a window

This is not Tuscany in Italy, as in A room with a view, but the beautiful Swedish countryside.

You are looking out of a window one wounderful summer day last year. It is all so green.

And here is another photo of Swedish summer, taken at about eight - nine in the evening.
