These are fields of sunflowers in the Sacramento area in Northern California. They are at full bloom. Unfortunately, we are having a few wild fire in the area, so the sky is filled with smoke.

"Nu ma ninge/ nu ma ploua/ eu imi fac ... horinca noua"

horilka (horinca) most likely stems from a Slavonic word meaning "to burn" i.e. to distill spirits; and clearly horinca is of the same root, there is but a minor difference in the pronounciation.

The distillery is kind of a homemade affair that is privately owned, adjoining a cold

water river.

Everyone in the area used the facility & each person paid for the use with a combination

of a bit of money & a percentage of the production.

Horinca is made usually from the plums, who are harvested during the

first freeze. This is a double distilled alcohol which is somewhere around 80 proof. The first distillation is called tzuica. The tzuica is then distilled a second time to

produce horinca (also known as palinca).

After kicking around my bag for awhile it's barely started to break in.

It's nice to have a bit of photographic fun from time to time!

Blooming canola field near Husby and Kalvsvik in a rural part of Österhaninge. The hill here is one of my favorite places in this part of Haninge, I will often sit up there camera ready while enjoying a light lunch. You have a good view of the surrounding area from the hill. Today's look is very different from how it can look during Autumn.
