The last Day in May

Wind in my hair and the scent of lilacs.
The blackbird is singing, accompanied by a woman’s soft humming.
That is the poetry of nature the last day in May.

A wonderful Hawthorn

Tucked between the trees is a magnificent house listed in oak for the deer’s food

Clouds Drifting

On my way home the other day I found a hobbit hole.

The hole was like a door into another world. A world of clouds.

That made me think of an article I read about the Danish weather once.
The sky in Denmark is something special. In the sense that there is a very wide variation in relation to other places in the world.

McEff from Becausetheyrethere now lives in Andalusia. He has consistently noticed the sky on my pictures 🙂 And there might be a reason for that.
I have found the information I lacked which deals with why the sky of Denmark is worth enjoying.

Denmark is a unique place on the planet where most weather and most air masses passing through in a year. With air masses and the changeable weather follows all sorts off clouds, so look up and enjoy!

McEff fra Becausetheyrethere er flyttet til Andalusien. Det må opleves som et voldsomt klimaskift fra en lind strøm af stormende lavtryk til en klar blå himmel og 35-40 graders varme. Jeg tror, der går en rum tid, før vi kan forvente rapportering om vandreture fra Andalusien 🙂

Sommeren herhjemme har været usædvanlig kold, og høsten er sat langt tilbage. Vi mangler solen, og dog har der været perioder, hvor vejret i Danmark har vist sig fra sin bedste side.
Himlen og skyerne i Danmark er unikke, og meteorolog Jesper Theilgaard har udgivet en smuk bog om vejret i Danmark.

I det digre værk: ”Det Danske Vejr” fortæller Theilgaard om de danske guldaldermalere Eckersberg, Købke, Skovgaard og Lundbye. Flere af datidens malere interesserede sig for meteorologi.

Skovgaards billede ”Fra Eremitagen” er et dejligt gensyn for mig.

“Fra Eremitagen” af P.C. Skovgaard

Eremitagen er et vidunderligt sted at betragte himlen. Græsser der svajer i vinden, med alle de nuancer der fremkommer, når skyerne driver hen over himlen.
