I was deeply impressed by the young sommelier's knowledge! This was one of the days in Budapest I will always remember.
We are in a very old wine cellar in Budapest - having lunch and testing wines. Me, my two sisters and our husbands.
This young Hungarian sommelier will reach very far – I am sure – and I wish him all the best – … he is off for Australia … Lucky Australia!

Really deeply impressed I was!!!!!

Trollsländan har fasettögon och de syns fint på denna bilden. Man luras lätt ….
…. och tror kanske att de här mörka prickarna är ögon.

My little Dragonfly from Pannonhalma He looks so happy and he was very friendly – he stayed on the flower so I could take several photos.
Trollsländor, Dragonfly,
The black spot looks like an eye but it is not. They have compound eyes – the red on top of the head here.

Idag ska vi göra en utflykt till Världsarvet – Hollókő – en gammal ungersk by i norra delen av landet.
Igår var det Pannonhalma – här nedan syns klostret från alla väderstreck. Vi körde nämligen runt byn innan vi körde upp till klostret.
Klostret kan bara ses genom guidade turer. Men vinkällaren kan man besöka själv.

Det produceras utmärkt vin från Pannonhalma – enligt en vinexpert är deras Pinot Noair från 2007 det godaste vinet ever so far!
Vi fck tag på två flaskor trots att det är slut :)

De här små söta figurerna heter DRAGONFLY på engelska. Drakflygare skulle man kunna säga fast på svenska heter de ju TROLLSLÄNDOR.
En av dem hälsar till er med ett stort leende.
Klicka på bilderna så blir de större!

Can you see what this is? It is not the common angel but I didn’t want to miss it :)

A little bit more … and so MAJESTIC … I think it will be perfect in Måndagstema as well.
… and at last … the other side …
I shot the Peacock yesterday in the City Park. Happily my tele lense was on for the close up :)
Macro Monday.

Ja faktiskt blir man glad varje morgon när man ser dessa två hälsa God Morgon. Den vänstra är den billiga och den högra är den dyra. En knopp har fallit av på den vänstra. Antagligen var den inte tillräckligt inpackade på vägen från affären-

Vaci utca – where are we heading? Yes we will go to Gerbeaud and by some pieces of cakes, go home and have swedish coffee – Zoégas Skånerost.
Here I bought some paintings by Hundertwasser which I like very much.
Now we are heading home again – S:t Stephan Bazilica is very close to home.
We have bought some goat cheese and red Hungarian wine – the evening is saved for amusements …

“Da ja like choklett”?
Mmmmmm – this one is just so increadable delicious!
Are you the kind of human that not function without chocolate?
Chocolate, chocolate cream, choclate, nuts, chocolate …..
It was this one …. It is not anylonger :)
Everyone can eat it – vegetarians as well – that’s why everyone in our family can eat this marvellous cake bought in Halmstad at “Skånskans”.

Orkidéer är ganska tacksamma att “leka med”. Jag har gjort flera olika versioner av denna. Testade även olika filter som skapar svartvitt. De kommer jag att visa senare.
Missa inte MACRO MONOCHROME om du gillar att fotografera “close up” och sedan omvandla till svartvitt! Temat för denna veckan är “FODRAL”. Kanske någon plockat fram “den lilla svarta”?
