Honeysuckle from Bohuslän, my part of Sweden. Bohuslän’s provincial flower and one of my favorite scents of summer. On warm summer evenings, all I have to do is open the window and its soft fragrance drifts in from the garden.🌿 #Honeysuckle #Bohuslän #Sweden #SummerEvening #SummerInSweden #Stunday

An honeysuckle flower in close‑up. Slender petals in soft yellow and pink‑purple. Long stamens extend outward, set against a background of dense, deep‑green leaves.

Large, heavy clouds drifted slowly across the sky, wrapping the landscape in a soft, muted light. One of those quiet moments that asks for nothing, except that we notice it. Skrea Beach, Halland, Sweden — yesterday, just as it was #Sweden #WestCoast #SkreaBeach #MoodySky #Clouds #QuietMoments

A calm sea with green-blue water and several dark rocks in the shallow foreground. Far out on the horizon, a few white sailboats can be seen. Above them, large, heavy clouds stretch across the sky—dense, dark, and softly layered—with rain approaching in the distance. The light is warm and muted, while the dramatic cloud cover dominates the scene.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· 23d

Wind-swept granite cliffs and an open sea stretching endlessly to the west. Rugged, simple and incredibly beautiful. There is something about the outermost edge of the Bohuslän coast that keeps calling me back. #WestCoastOfSweden #Bohuslän #BohusMalmön #HållöFyr #Granite #Scandinavia #BlueTue

Granite cliffs with soft, rounded shapes stretch out toward a deep blue sea that reaches distant islands. In the foreground, clusters of purple heather grow and grass emerges from the cracks in the rocks.
A solitary sailboat is visible on the water and far in the background a lighthouse can be glimpsed on a rocky outcrop.

I love how the roads in the Highlands are often just two tracks leading into the unknown. You take a different turn, just to see what is waiting over the next hill. Suddenly, Uxatindur appeared like a beautiful painting and we stopped to enjoy the peaceful moment. #Iceland #Highlands #Uxatindur

A wide highland landscape with dark volcanic hills covered in scattered patches of lush, green moss. In the foreground, a narrow river winds through a shallow valley. The mid‑ground shows larger slopes of black volcanic rockand in the distance, sharp jagged mountains rise steeply, their peaks partly hidden by low, heavy clouds. The sun barely breaks through the cloud cover in a few small spots, casting faint, warm highlights across parts of the landscape.

Yesterday, Svinafellsjökull revealed its most beautiful side. A gentle mist drifted across the glacier, flowing like silk over the ice. It was truly mesmerizing. #Iceland #Glacier #Ice #Mist #Travel

A wide glacial landscape with rough, jagged ice stretching across the scene. In the foreground, shallow pools of water lie on dark, rocky ground. Mist hangs over the glacier, softening the sharp ridges. Behind it, steep mountains rise under a heavy clouds and mist.

One of the countless beautiful waterfalls scattered across Iceland. Some are easily reached, while others remain hidden, difficult or even impossible to access. Some have names, many do not. This one is Foss á Síðu, easily accessible on Iceland's south coast. #Iceland #WaterfallWednesday #Travel

A tall, narrow waterfall spills down a steep, moss‑covered cliff. Iits white stream gathering into a small creek that winds through a bright green meadow. Stones and wildflowers line the water’s edge, and soft hills rise around the scene in deep summer green.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· Jul 1

One of Iceland’s 10,000+ waterfalls, Bjarnarfoss on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Driving across the peninsula, I was struck by the soft, shifting evening light and the way the clouds moved across the landscape, casting gentle shadows over the land. #Iceland #Snaefellsnes #WaterfallWednesday #Light

A wide mountain valley with steep hills and soft green slopes, broken by patches of evening sunlight and shadows from drifting clouds. In the center of the photo is a distant waterfall, falling steep into the valley.

Iceland will always keep a piece of my heart. I can't explain why or how. It's just a feeling that I truly belong in these stunning landscapes that take my breath away.💚💙 Overlooking Langisjór in the Icelandic Highlands #Iceland #Highlands #Landscape #GreenBlack #Photo #Stunday #PieceOfMyHeart

A volcanic valley with black lava soil, patches of bright green moss on steep slopes and several calm lakes reflecting the heavy grey clouds in the sky. The terrain forms deep curves and ridges that give the scene a sense of depth and quiet stillness.

Banryū-tei — The garden of the coiling dragon At Kongōbu-ji, Kōyasan, Japan. In places like this, I am reminded of the value of stillness. #Japan #Koyasan #Stillness #JapaneseGardens #ZenGarden #SacredPlaces #InnerPeace

A wide view of a rock garden at Kongōbu‑ji, with raked white gravel forming flowing patterns around large stone formations. The stones rise like small islands or mountain shapes, and the surrounding temple buildings frame the scene. Soft light highlights the textures in the gravel and the calm, open space of the garden.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· Jun 17

Daimon. The traditional gateway to Koyasan and for centuries, the beginning of many pilgrimages. Built in 1705 and standing 25.1 meters (82 ft) tall, it still welcomes visitors to the sacred mountain today. Me in one of the photos for scale. #Japan #Koyasan #Wakayama #Daimon #SacredPlaces #RedWed

A Swedish summer evening so still and soft it feels like nature holds its breath. #SwedishSummer #Reflections #SoftLight #Stillness #QuietMoments

A small lake with completely calm water during summer, acting like a perfect mirror that reflects the tall green trees, the soft sky, and the pale clouds above. Sunlight touches the treetops with a warm glow, while the lower half of the scene shows the same view upside down in the clear reflection. The whole landscape feels peaceful with no wind or movement to break the smooth surface of the lake.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· Jun 10

A truly beautiful Swedish early summer evening at Ulkeröd Farm on the west coast. Surrounded by stillness, birdsong, and the fresh green glow of nature. Sometimes, it's the simplest moments that fill the heart the most. 🌿 #Sweden #WestCoast #EarlySummer #FreshGreen #SimpleMoments

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes" - Marcel Proust - The area around Langisjór, Iceland #Iceland #Highlands #Langisjor #Landscape #MountainMonday #Wanderlust #NewEyes

A volcanic landscape with dark, rugged slopes covered in patches of lush green moss. In the center lies a bright blue lake with steep, black rock walls around it. The background shows distant mountains under a cloudy sky. The scene feels remote and shaped by old volcanic forces.

Fagrifoss, Iceland 🌿 #WaterfallWednesday Such a beautiful place…. serene, majestic and simply unforgettable. #Iceland #Highlands #Fagrifoss #Waterfalls

A powerful waterfall splits into two separate falls as it drops over a few dark volcanic rock ledges. The white, foaming water lands on large boulders below and continues flowing along the rocks before joining the stream. The surrounding slopes rise steeply, almost vertical in places. Above the falls, the landscape opens into smooth, rolling green hills covered in lush green moss and grass.

Few places feel as good as Austria’s soft, summer-green hills. A quiet calm just settles in your body when you’re surrounded by all that green. 🌿 I’ll be back late this summer for long, winding hikes and, of course, some delicious Kaiserschmarrn. #Austria #Tirol #GreenAlps #Wanderlust #GreenSat

A wide green alpine valley in Tirol, Austria, with open meadows and small villages scattered across the landscape. Dark, forested mountain slopes rise steeply around the valley, and in the distance a narrow ribbon of water can be seen between the hills. Soft white clouds drift across the sky, letting patches of blue shine through.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· May 28

I wake up to this view every morning, though I don’t always see it. A gentle reminder to notice the beauty in simple things, especially on the days I forget. “There is grace in softness, strength in calm, and beauty in the everyday.” 🌿 — Seen on a tote bag in Tokyo. #ShowHeart #EverydayBeauty

A calm morning view over the sea, with a dense, green forest in the foreground, and both nearby and distant small islands scattered across the blue water under a pale, clear sky.

At Katsuoji, thousands of tiny darumas rest among moss and stone like guardians of hope. Visitors leave them with wishes and dreams. They symbolize perseverance, the quiet strength to keep going. Here, resilience feels present in the air, not just seen. #Japan #Katsuoji #Daruma #Strength #RedWed

A stone guardian lion stands on a pedestal covered in small red daruma dolls. More darumas are arranged on nearby rocks and along a bright red wooden fence. Behind the statue, a large temple building with a green-tiled roof rises against a backdrop of a hill with dense green forest.

A close-up row of small red and white daruma dolls lined up on a stone wall. The dolls, with angry or determined faces, stretch into the distance, with soft greenery and hints of red temple structures blurred in the background.

"Ooops I almost forgot.... to look at the sky, feel the sun on my skin, listen to the birds and feel the grass beneath my feet"🌿 - Unknown - #AfterTheRain #Rainbow #SmallNoticings #QuietMoments

A bright rainbow arcs upward to the left against a dark-grey sky, with the tops of dense green trees filling the bottom of the photo.

Came across this during my morning jog, it really turned my Sunday into a #Stunday😯 The size of half a football, growing on a large oak tree. Honestly, it looked as if someone had tucked a sun-yellow omelette into the trunk.😆 A quick Google search told me it´s sulphur shelf.🤔 #Mushroom #Fungus

A large, bright yellow and orange sulphur shelf mushroom grows in several wavy, shelf‑like layers on the trunk of a big oak tree. Only parts of the thick trunk are visible, with dark, cracked bark framing the vivid fungus.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· May 23

Endless landscapes of velvet-soft, lush green moss and black lava sand. I could stand there for hours, simply taking in the view, feeling deeply grateful, peaceful and quietly in awe. It's like a world that somehow doesn’t quite feel real. #Iceland #Highlands #GreenMoss #BlackSand #GreenSat #Photo

A wide volcanic, Icelandic landscape with dark, rocky ground in the foreground and steep mountains covered in lush green moss rising in the distance. The slopes are rugged with patches of black volcanic soil visible between the bright green areas. A grey, cloudy sky adds a dramatic atmosphere.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· May 20

There are moments when the world feels quiet again. Not because life suddenly changes, but because something inside you softens. The light shifts gently, your mind follows more calmly, and for a moment, everything feels a little easier again. #Iceland #Westfjords #SoftLight #QuietMoments #Nature

A wide Icelandic plain stretches out under an overcast sky. The foreground is covered in pale green and grasse with scattered dark stones. In the distance, rugged mountains rise sharply, their slopes partly hidden by drifting mist and low clouds. The light is soft and diffused, giving the landscape a quiet feeling.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· May 15

Different landscapes, same feeling - some places stay with you quietly, always. Westendorf in Tirol, Austria #Austria #Tirol #ForestFriday #Outdoors #Mountains #Wanderlust #Stillness #Silence

A green alpine landscape with a grassy foreground slope with a few dark spruce trees. Further back, the hills rise into taller mountain ridges. In the distance, snow‑covered peaks stand bright against the sky. Above them, a wide partly cloudy sky stretches with large white clouds drifting over the mountains.

One turn around a corner, and the city falls silent. A small shrine tucked between concrete and glass, like a hidden oasis in the middle of Osaka. I’m filled with that soft, relieving feeling of stepping out of the rush and into stillness. #Japan #Osaka #GoryoJinja #Shrine #Stillness #RedWed

A covered shrine corridor painted in bright red, with thick red pillars to the left. A couple of ornate gold-and-black lanterns hang from the ceiling. On the right, a large, thick rope with wooden handle hangs beside a blue door decorated with gold details. Attached to the rope, in the ceiling, is a large bronze bell used by visitors before praying. The stone floor is pale grey. Through the open entrance, a tree with a thick brown trunk and green leaves is visible, framed by a red fence and a white wall. Around the trunk, a traditional sacred rope is tied.

Some places you visit and never really leave. They stay with you, quietly. 🌿 #Iceland #Snaefellsnes #Waterfalls #GreenLandscape #LandscapePhotography #Stillness #Stunday

A narrow waterfall cuts through a deep gorge with dark lava rocks partly covered with lush, green moss and grass. The landscape is untouched, shaped by nature only.

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪@ninapersmo· May 6

Just the water, the movement, the sound, the scent, the light – and that soft, quiet happiness that only nature seems to know how to give. Sometimes this is all we need. #Iceland #Eastfjords #Dynjandi #Nature #Waterfall #WaterfallWednesday #Happiness #Photography

A large, multi‑tiered waterfall cascades down dark cliffs. At the top, the water spreads into several wide streams that flow over dark rock ledges. The water continues to cascade into a powerful vertical drop. Below, the water continues as a fast, white stream through a rocky landscape covered in green moss. Steep cliffs rise around the scene, under a blue sky with a few white clouds.

With Sanjūn‑tō before me and Nachi no Taki rising 133 meters behind it, this beautiful place felt quietly special. Nachi Falls is Japan’s highest waterfall, and yes…of course I drank from the sacred water, hoping to secure a long life. #Japan #NachiFalls #RedPagoda #WaterfallWednesday #Travel

A red, three‑story Japanese pagoda stands surrounded by green forest. To the left, a cherry blossom tree is in full bloom. Behind the pagoda, a tall, narrow waterfall drops straight down a steep cliff. The landscape is mountainous and covered in dense greenery, all under a clear blue sky.

At Hakusan Jinja in Niigata, young performers bring tradition to life through taiko drumming. It's more than the wonderful sound. It’s rhythm, precision and energy in perfect sync, reaching everyone watching. Powerful and deeply impressive. #Japan #Niigata #HakusanJinja #TaikoDrums #Energy #Travel

A group of young taiko drummers performing outdoors at a Japanese shrine. They wear coordinated black, red, and yellow outfits with white headbands and play several large wooden drums, including one central drum on a stand. Behind them are a wooden shrine structure and hanging lanterns. A vertical banner with Japanese characters stands to the left.
