Getting back to work today after having had a wonderful holiday with some beach time?
Well, here is an opportunity to extend that beach time while being back at work, the August 2011 wallpaper!
Four months ago I let you choose the April 2011 wallpaper among various alternatives. The above photo came up as #2 in that list and so I decided to make it the August 2011 wallpaper. The photo was taken on the Dutch west coast near Schoorl. Hope you enjoy it!

The June 2011 wallpaper was based on a photo I took end of May on the east coast of Sweden near the village of Grisslehamn. I promised in that post to show some more photos from that trip. Here they are.
The above text layered image is based on the photo below. This photo was taken at 11pm in the harbor of Grisslehamn. I had just returned from my evening tour at the coast.
The harbor was just 100m from my pension. The photo is built from 3 individual images, stitched together using Adobe Photoshop’s photo-merge to get a slight panorama effect.
Earlier during that evening I shot some seaside photos of the waterfront. The coastline is very rocky near Grisslehamn.
The next evening I went to the island of Singö, just north of Grisslehamn. This is the location where the June 2011 wallpaper was taken. The below photo is a wider framed photo of the same island, Svartklubben with the lighthouse, with a rock formation in the foreground.

The month of July is upon us and the summer has started. Therefore for the July 2011 wallpaper I have chosen one of my images of a Dandelion visualizing the transition of spring to summer.
The photo was taken early in June this year. It is a close-up / macro photo taken under simple circumstances. In our living room window I put the Dandelion in front of a white piece of paper. The window gave some back-light from the sun, no other light source was used. The hardest part was actually to get the Dandelions home without destroying them, as they are very fragile in this state.

Wow… another month has passed and it is already the 1st of June, so I owe you a new wallpaper. Here it is!
Last week I spent a few days on the east-coast of Sweden, 150km north of Stockholm. I visited the fishing village Grisslehamn and the neighboring island Singö.
In front of Singö lies the small island Svartklubben (The Black Club) with on it a lighthouse surrounded by typical Swedish wooden red houses. It can be photographed well from Singö with a telelens.
The coming weeks I will post some more images from the trip to Grisslehamn and Singö.

On May 30th our first foal of the season was born, Furunäs Yvonne! It is always a good occasion to go out and make some adorable photos of the Shetland ponnies.
Both mother, Furunäs Nicolita, and daughter were doing great when we checked them yesterday evening. Although still a bit wobbly on her feet and already irritated by the tickling grass and circling mosquitoes she seems a healthy and strong foal. On the added photos she is just 16 hours old.
Furunäs Yvonne was named after my mother, who sadly died in cancer earlier this year. Furunäs Nicolita was her favorite horse.
