Study

 I've been exploring unfamiliar territory. 

Cafe Valand

 
The interior all original since the day it opened in Stockholm in 1954. I sat there drinking my coffee in complete awe, feeling quite satisfied with the time warp I was sure I had stumbled upon. I wanted to explode with delight. The combination of silence and magic left a very loud wake of inspiration. Something I have been in desperate need of for some time now.

Oxford Botanical Gardens

Birds Abroad

If I am not careful this could turn into a bird blog.

I am in London for the summer. The streets here are overpopulated with people in town for the Olympics. I’ve made an extra effort to find places and museums that are less known therefore less crowded. To escape the manic streets and enter an almost silent room full of 200 yr. old specimens is an amazing relief.

Nest

     
       

For a brief time I had these little guys. So small and frail....and hungry. They didn't live long without their mother despite the constant feedings....Its amazing how quickly we can get attached to things. 

On a lighter note, MUSHROOMS!

       

I love when mushrooms spontaneously pop up in random places.
