Water Calendar 2026

Water Calendar 2026

I’ve created a new wall calendar with photographs and reflections – Water Calendar 2026. Get it, as a Christmas present, or just for yourself.

In the 2026 calendar we meet magic moments, where water takes on golden colours, becomes a flowing jewel and shifts its shades like velvet fabric. We follow droplets as they mimic water living species, or is it the opposite? We encounter a river branching to cool down, watch dancing plumes and learn how dissolving clouds define our climate. We sense unexpected kinships, are lost in the moment and look at plants and water with new eyes.

Each image tells its own story – to an open heart and an enquiring mind. With the mind of a scientist and the heart of a poet, we journey into the mysteries of water.

October 2025 – The Mysteries of Fog

Mist from the seaside

Morning mist is rolling in from the shore, the remnants of a rainy summer night. Elusive, yet being so close that one can nearly touch it. The sun finally breaks through, clearing up the mist into vapour, and it is gone, the remembrance of the night’s thunderstorm. Mist, the symbol of the unclear, the undiscovered, out of which discovery is born. Does it still hold any mysteries?

July 2025 – The soap bubbles

Tinted in purple and blue, the bubbles float away through the air, upwards for a while, then sinking until they meet the ground or the foliage, disintegrating. Bubble after bubble flows out of the bubble wand, which is forming long sausages by the flow of air, soon pinching off into bubbles.

June 2025 – Like a painting

Like a painting, the water surface shimmers. A patchy green stretches down from above, creating a striped impression on the ever moving canvas.
The sienna coloured rock walls blend in between. Like the memory filtering an artist’s impression, the water surface has its own way of doing the same.

May 2025 – A soft light

A soft light illuminates the sky. In its way: cotton-like clouds and a falling rain. Little drops in the sky, friends to those on the grass, distract the light, turning its path in my direction, exposing its hidden colours. Down below: a mirror completing the path, faintly perceptible, yet there.

April 2025 – The dew drops

Glistening like diamonds in the morning sun, the small dew drops cling to the grass blades.

The slow wind gently caresses the nearest grass blade. To and fro the tip rocks, irregularly. Settles, for a moment still – and then a gust gives it a puff again. The little dew drops cling to the blade, firmly secured to it by the mutual attraction.

January 2025 – Self-organization

Self-organizing, seemingly out of nothing, the sand-water rolls appear. Where did they come from? The mo­ment before, when the incoming stream reached its highest level and turned, there was only a flat surface of murky water.

Self-organization means the sponta­neous formation of a macroscopic structure, an order for free, as it were, emerging when the effects of the individuals, e.g. the movement of water molecules, start to interlock and add up, forming a new complexity. When the conditions are right, self-organization occurs, spontaneously, like a vortex forming in a bath tub.
