Att fly behöver inte betyda det man kanske först tänker på att fly från – en påtaglig, fysisk fara. För mig är det snarast att fly samhället, alla måsten och bördor som tynger en. Hur ska jag kunna illustrera detta i bilder? Efter en ganska lång funderare blev det här min lösning! Hur ser din ut?
For me, escaping is associated with escaping society. To just get away from everything and leave all troubles behind. Every ”must” you ever saw has to be wiped out of your mind.
I have tried, with these five photos, to find out what I really do to escape – or at least to try to escape ….
Maybe the easiest way to escape – to fly far away and leave things behind, physically as well as mentally
Music, concerts offer a great escape! At least for the moment. This is Kamelot and its brilliant singer, Roy Khan.
Great art and architecture as well – here Joan Miró
Playing all sorts of games is a kind of escape from reality. It doesn´t have to be computer games…
But, most of all – at least for me – nature itself. Hiking, tramping or whatever you call it. It frees your mind and body and gives you – the total escape.
Such great photos, and perfect for the challenge. Love the photo from the plane.
Thank you – it´s my favourite too!
Great assortment of images that reflect this week’s theme! My favorite is the last one!

Thank you for your positive comment!The last photo was taken in Norway on our way back from the glacier Svartisen.
wow.. and brrrrrrr…. i’m cold here in the andes while traveling wtih friends. cold weather is nice in short doses, but then i am ready to go back to the warm climate!

The Andes are wonderful – I could stand the cold…but that was in the 80´s, and I found it easier when I was younger! I´m freezing cold here in Madrid this week with only 10-15 degrees C. But it´s a beautiful city and today we´re leaving for Segovia – one of my favourites. Hope you will get warmer soon!
Hej !
Jäffefina bilder och det är bara att hålla med dig om att få förmånen att kunna vistas ute i naturen är den bästa ”flykten” av alla.
Kan nämna att det snöar rätt rejält häruppe…..

[...] “Maybe the easiest way to escape – to fly far away and leave things behind, physically as well as mentally” – We loved Ann-Christine’s beautiful shot taken out the window of an airplane, high above the clouds. 100 years ago, traveling to the other side of the world and leaving all your troubles behind meant weeks or even months of travel – now we’re able to escape in a matter of hours!

Clouds, concerts… indeed those are a few of my best beloved escape venues.
They really are, to quite some people I belive!
You did great with your selections – the shot out the plane window was my favorite, but I loved the last one too!
Hope to see you join us this week too: http://www.letsbewild.com/photo-challenge/wild-weekly-photo-challenge-4-water/
Thank you for the great honour of being selected once more!
Nice cloud shot, and the concert looks pretty hot too!
Thank you! That was a concert held in the singer´s home town in Norway. Marvellous.
Nice .. i like that you showed different variations of the theme!
Thank you! Variation in mind and life is a necessity – I beleive.
