It was beautiful.
On my way to work at 7.40, the sky began to lighten along the horizon.
The view from my officewindow a little while later.
The pink horizon glimting thorugh the branches.
During my lunchwalk...
Sky and snow-covered river
Sewing? Oh, yes, I've done a bit of that last weekend, but none during the workdays. Too many evening-meetings =( I'm happy to say the sweatpants are finished and I'm halfway ready with a blouse. Hopefully I'll feel a bit more energetic tomorrow, and I'll be home during daylight-hours, so pictures will be taken.
Have a great weekend!
Love, Erika

That lighting is just AMAZING!
lovely pictures, but there is not a living soul in sight !
Is your part of Sweden very quiet or is it the cold that's keeping every one indoors ?
Hope your sweat pants are keeping you warm ;-)
E.
Absolutely lovely photos. I wish we had some clear days like that around my little spot of earth!
Oh my, those are some great pictures! Where do you live?
Tasha, thank you so very much!
Eurielle, :) There are about 100 000 people here in town... But this was during workhours in a very calm part of the city. There was some people about, but few eunough that I could avoid having them in the pictures. I really like that my lunchwalks are a bit solitude, perfect for clearing my mind! The last part I walk through a part of the center shopping area though... Cars and people everywhere!
Foster, Thank you! We of course have a lot days when it's grey (in december we went 3 weeks without seeing the sun, it was so cloudy!) and during winter the days are very short. But it's all worth it for the occasional day like this one! :) The best part is that they do come. Every winter there are a number pf days with sunshine and perfect blue skies. Love it!
Anathea, thank you! I live in Umeå, northern Sweden. It's south of the polar circle with about 400 kilometers, so while we unfortunatly don't get the midnight sun during summer, we do have some daylight the year around. Our shortest days there's about 3,5h of daylight. So it's pretty cold and sometimes dark during winters but as a pro we sometimes get a lovely winter sun :)
My goodness, you live in a wonderland!
growing up in northern Australia, I've been fascinated with snowy landscapes since I was a little girl! I think if I had that view from my office, I would never get any work done at all!
Gorgeous photo's.
I love it when it snows and then the sun comes out, it just looks so surreal and peaceful, unfortunately we are lucky if we get that once a year :(
Pixie; I totally share the fascination with winter wonderlands! Would love to see Australia some day, though. The landscape there looks amazing and so versitile!
Sarah; thank you! Those clear and crisp winterdays are my favorite days of the year =) I'm sorry to hear you get so few of these wonderful days! But then maybe you have real summers? The kind where "doesn't need a jacket" lasts for more than two weeks? There's always pro's and con's =)
