Mikado



This giant version of Mikado can be found in the park close to my home. It's of course not playable since the 'sticks' are bolted together. I'm not sure if it's meant as art or for kids to play on. Maybe both :)

Shopping cart



Someone found it necessary to throw this shopping cart in the water. I find it amazing how this foreign object is just absorbed into the natural surrounding and nature just works around it.

Don't get me wrong, it should not have been there in the first place, I just admire nature's flexibility.

Ice



There is this small stream which runs through the park, close to my home. On the bank of this stream there was some ice. Also the water in the sand got crystallized (left side of photo), giving it a weird texture.

Willow catkins



This weekend we finally had some sun. Last couple of weeks was either grey or I had to work. Now I finally had some good enough weather to go out and make some photos.

The sun is starting to gain some strength again and hints of Spring were in the air. Slowly nature starts to become full of life again and these Willow catkins are the first signs.
