Västra väggar – Western Walls.
Yesterday I was trekking around Eco Park Omberg, some 21 km. It is a fantastic area where you can be inspired by orchids, feel the strong smell from ramsons, hike along enormous oaks or enjoy the amazing view at various heights.

Once upon a time I was ambitious taking close-up photos every day with my big camera, i.e. DSLR, thus I could use titles like the above. Well, every week, to be honest I mean every week during the “warm” season when there are flowers.
Since then a lot has happend; the main thing is that I follow the trend to take photos with a smaller camera, a device I always have in my pocket. Aha, a mobile phone you might think! But I refer to a small advanced compact camera which fits my pocket! I have choosen a Canan Powershoot S120, which gives me reasonable quality for a reasonable price, and of course fits small pockets!
Today I made a long walk, 21 km, in the Eco Park of Omberg and beside my small camera I also brought my heavy one!
I found an interesting flower, ramson, which I seldom see! The photo is not taken with a macro lens, but I consider it to be a close-up photo!

During some weekends this spring and summer I have been nostalgic and visited places I have not visited since I was child. Omberg is one of these places. I was there with my parents and also at a class travel at fourth grade.
Now as an adult many years later, I made preparations on Internet, to know what to do during 3-4 hours. The result was a nice walk on the Ellen Key hike.
But this is not only about nostalgic, I enjoy to walk in the nature for relaxation, the exercise and to take photos!
