Stockholm's Archipelago (Roslagen)

I have been meaning to publish this since February, but only managed now ...

A particular chilly February morning we decided to kick the Saturday habit of sleeping late and went out for a day trip.
We started the day by driving to Stavsnäs in order to get on the ferry that goes to Sandhamn; a place we had not been to, but had read about recently on a website.
Later, we headed to Lidingö to photograph the sunset. (I am in love with Swedish sunsets.)

I pasted some pictures below to let the nuances of this trip speak for themselves.


The icy Baltic sea seemed to have stuck mirrors to its surface.

A cozy village just a short boat ride away from the city; lots of these idyllic places can be seen along the archipelago...

The garden of a coffee place waiting for the summer...

I have a thing for close ups, nature's...
