Fullspectrum converted Canon EOS 80D, IR 720 nm The may pole is dressed with leafy twigs, usually birch, and decorated with wild flowers. In many places people gather in the morning to dress the Maypole, then gather again in the afternoon to carry the pole to the place where it is to be erected. Those who owns a local traditional costume dress up for this special occation. The pole is long and heavy, it takes several people to carry it, often in procession with fiddlers playing folk music.

Fullspectrum converted Canon EOS 80D, IR 720 nm In Sweden, midsummer is one of the most important holidays, it is celebrated with maypole raising and parties.

Once a year, on the second Sunday of August, the blacksmith opens the door to the forge and lets us view the handiwork. Heats and shapes, heats and shapes until the nail, hinge or whatever it may be he is shaping is ready. Because the sun always shine on this special day, the weather has got its own name: Dammtôrpavä’r (Dammtorp’s weather after the place where this all happens). #infrared_photography #summer #retrospective #smithing #blacksmith #historic_crafting #ironwork #visittiveden #tivedsdagen #dammtorpadagen #creativeinfrared_world #visitlaxa #old_forge #historical_forge #forgeLäs mer ->

Old freight cars have such a beautiful patina. The wind-ravaged wood, the rusted metal. The remains of what was once shipped are mixed with the plant power in the shipping space. It is so exciting what power there is in life, what will to get ahead and survive even for the smallest blade of grass. #railroad #railway #railroadphotography #railroads_of_our_world #railroadstation #visitvadstena #visitostergotland #infocuswomen #fotogaris #railwaystation #railways_of_our_world #railways_of_europe #railway_station #railwaysofinstagram #freightcart #infrared_world #infrared_photography #train_nerds #trainphotography #trainart #trainsofinstagramLäs mer ->

In the forest, the fields are small and stony. During the height of summer, it is still possible to find the occasional “space egg” that hides food for the cows for the winter. #harvest #countrylife #forestlife #haybale #silage #tiveden #visittiveden #farming #infrared_photography #creativeinfrared_world #infrared_world #womenphotographers #fstopmagazine #tivedsvyer #infocuswomen #fotogaris #500px #appicoftheweekLäs mer ->

This year, there are two exhibitors in Bakstugan Tived: Enar Philipsson from Laxå who exhibits his wooden artworks and Maria Tingvall who grew up in Tiveden and exhibits her artistic photographs. Enar reuses materials he finds for his artworks. If you look closely at the pieces of wood, you can see that it can come from really old planks, it shows in the deep ring grooves. Often he finds shapes when he is out in nature, he then creates something new from these. Sometimes he combines it with old things that can be reused in new formats. In the exhibition there are pure works ofLäs mer ->

Canon EOS 80D, fullspectrum converted. 720 nm infrared. As I wrote in my earlier post, I went with my son to Askersund to shop and for a photowalk. One of the most beautiful restaurants/pubs I know is Sundsgården, it sits so welcoming when you enter the town over the Sundsbron/-bridge, a yellow wooden house that has been there for more than a hundred years. #infrared_photography #Askersund #Närke #historic_buildings #infrared_world #creativeinfrared_world #creative_photography #sheclicsnet #visitaskersund #visitnärke #architecture #restaurantsofinsta #pubs #infraredworld #summerinthecity #reflections #loves_water #loves_skies #loves_clouds #loves_trees #white_trees #brown_skies #brown #white #sweden #summerLäs mer ->
