Fiskebäckskil

We visited a beautiful fishing village with the class, all 3 of us. Our tutor Elisabeth picked us up from Uddevalla station bright and early at 9 am after our 2 1/2 hour train journey; armed with coffee and sandwiches she drove us a further hour away to the village of Fiskebäckskil. It had 379 inhabitants in 2010 and consists of various sizes of sweet little coloured wooden houses. It is all quite surreal- there's not a single shop in site apart from the tiny general store and the whole place is immersed in fog. It's cold (as usual) but we get the opportunity to take some really interesting photographs. I'm particularly fascinated by all the nets that are strewn about the place. Some have just been randomly dumped and others are stacked very orderly. They have a great colour palette and I love how some of them are really deteriorating to reveal a whole spectrum of greens and browns.
