Shimmering red


Alvaret on Öland a rainy August weekend. The limestone's red glow felt almost alien. It's got a special feeling, Alvaret. I remember well when we were on Öland with the school when I was 9 years old how the colours vibrated, how I felt like running out in to the impressionist painting with the incredibly blue sky arching above. Even when the sky is dark grey and the rain is hammering it's incredibly colourful.
