The Pier The Pier in December The Pier in November
I started a new photo project late last year. For the next year I will be taking a photo of this pier every month. You can find the pier at the Lower Lake at the Rudan nature reserve in Handen. Here are the first three photos. I took the top photo yesterday. The second snap is from early December, and the last one from mid-November of last year when we got the first snow of the season.

ice
There's absolutely nothing to photograph anywhere but I still gave it a go. The temperature read 5C today so I dressed as it had said -20C before going on a very slow bike ride. A very thin layer of ice covers most of the Lower Lake at the Rudan nature reserve and this was the only photo of any interest that I managed to take.

Need Snow? Red Volvo
Do you need some snow? Don't have enough of the white stuff for Christmas this year? If so, buy one of these. A snow gun from TechnoAlpin. Yours for only 450 000 SEK. The local ski club Jordbänningen decided that they needed two (2), snow machines. I was hoping to see it action yesterday at the Rudan nature reserve, but it was covered with blue tarp, probably because it was one degree too warm for the machine. I stuck around for a while hoping to get a few good snaps of the skiers but there was only two people there and you can see one of them here.

The View Lake Reflection
There was a day earlier in the week with a dramatic sky and surprisingly warm weather, around 9C. I decided to head over to the Lower Lake at the Rudan nature reserve for a few photos. This woman beat me to it and we spent ten minutes talking. She is retired, lives at Gudö in Vendelsö. She had a long career with work abroad. She told me about a visit to Australia where she spent some time at a friends place in Perth. One thing she remembers especially from Down Under was seeing the black swans. I told her about Grace who have photographed the swans a few times.

Who wants to go skinny dipping?
Don't you just want to run out onto the pier and jump into the lake for a refreshing swim? Of course you do. Go for it!
