For all the warm summer evenings where the atmosphere was heavy and the light created a pastel hue.
This particular evening the water was really warm and there were quite a few people still swimming as the sun went down.
After noticing these pictures I never posted, it got me thinking about the contrast of weather. Currently it is so very cold and snowy. I’m not yearning for summer, but it’s nice to know it will be here again.
The snow lantern or snölykta was made the day after a storm which left us about five inches of wet snow. The next day, being sunny and in the upper thirties, was perfect for making snowballs.
The first night was a little too windy so the candles kept going out. The following day I placed two tall candles in the igloo and lit them in the evening just as the sun was going down and it stayed alight well into the early morning hours.
