Biked to work for the first time since July! It took 38 instead of 28 minutes, because I'm not back at full strength and also there was unexpected ice. Such a beautiful morning. I've really missed this way of commuting! #NayePhoto

View of an icy lake on a clear day. Low winter sun hanging over the far shore is reflected right down the middle of the ice, like a flaming sword. It reaches a large swath of icy debris where clumps of ice have been shattered into smaller fragments abs left dust behind like an explosion.

Two swans gliding across calm water. The background is snowy shores and forest that looks like it's been dusted with confectioner's sugar. The sky is cloudy, but even though the clouds are gray they have a little bit of texture and light going, so you can see the reflected in the water.

Thank you, Epiphany, for being a holiday! Always appreciate the last little break before the onslaught of nothing but work until Easter. Especially appreciate it right now when nature is particularly beautiful, and indoors feels particularly cozy and good. #NayePhoto

The last time I saw the aurora was 2016 in Iceland. I've never seen it clearly in Sweden - until I looked out the window last night. And then we both went out in our backyard and stared at the northern sky under the Big Dipper. The camera sees more color than the eye, but that green...! #NayePhoto
