At the playground where we sometimes go with our grandson there are a few installations about cool effects.  One is a kind of whirligig where one can turn a handle to create a vortex in the glass cylinder.

My home is a castle

142 favourite (640x480)

I was truly privileged as a child.  We lived in a modest house but the back garden bordered the high wall surrounding the castle grounds.  In my father’s day this park was off bounds for the townspeople (except on Easter Sunday or Monday, for a couple of hours).  Nowadays the park is public and the castle is the town hall.  To me, it was always the playground just behind the house.

For The Daily Post where Cheri asked to share a favourite place. More favourite places can be found here.

Duck duck go

I looked and looked but I always came up with these goslings for Aino’s colour combination in this week’s Värikollaasit.

This is the same collage, without any alienation effect:

So this colour collage is specially for Susu – but I’m afraid, it’s goslings not ducklings.

I walked past a construction site the other day.
