Macro Mondays - theme of February 6, 2023: Made of Metal
This scene somehow reminds me of the epic science fiction 'Dune' by Frank Herbert (I loved the novels)
But it's actually the serrated blade of a bread knife - taken in the kitchen in front of our red kettle (also made of metal) and illuminated with a warm light

HMM everyone !
I've got a heavily runny nose, so I might not be able to comment a lot this evening; but I will try to catch up

If we start with the name, "Hov" means roughly a small mound or temple, and "hallar" = slabs/rocks/mountains that go through the day.
Hovs Hallar, the last spur of the Hallandsåsen and the steepest coastal section on the Bjäre Peninsula, is truly one of the Bjäre Peninsula's top snack bars. The sea meets land in a dramatic, almost surreal way, with cracked cliffs, ruaks, cobblestone fields and cave-like formations.
There are lots of stories from the area, everything from old smuggling stories to contemporary stories. Most films have scenes shot from the location. Engineer Andrée's Flight and The Seventh Seal are just a few examples.
Description of natural values/point of interest
The view over Laholmsbukten is fabulous, but also look down as the ground is rocky and strongly hilly with steep slopes. There are several loops that you can follow, for example Skåneleden passes through the area. The heights above the cliffs are made up of junipers and small forest groves where it is a little easier to get around.
Vikhög is a small fishing village on the Öresund coast in Löddeköpinge parish and a small town in Kävlinge municipality.
The nearest larger town is Löddeköpinge, about five kilometers to the northeast. The village is located at the far end of a headland bounded by Kävlingeån's outlet and Lommabukten to the south and Salviken to the north. On the other side of the Salviken is Barsebäck's nuclear power plant, now decommissioned.
Oresund Bridge consists of three parts and is totally 7845 m long. 5.35 km of the bridge is located on the Swedish side. [3] From the east passing first over a 3739 m long tillfartsbro starting from Lernacken just south of Malmo. The bridge continues with a 1092 m long cable-stayed bridge whose pylons is 203.5 meters high. The high bridge has a vertical clearance of 57 meters above Flintrännan. It turns into a western tillfartsbro at 3014 m. From the 4055 meter long artificial island Pepparholm, just south of Saltholm, connecting tunnel.
The bridge consists of two levels where the railway goes under the highway. East of the bridge goes motorway halves apart and railroad emerge between lanes. The railway runs between the lanes past the toll station and a few kilometers to the east. The bridge has been around 1.56% slope, [4] which is clearly more than that pursued for freight trains (especially as this and related courses have congestion, so they want fewer, heavier freight trains). The Danish EU locomotives are built specifically to be able to reap the full weight of freight trains across the Sound, and even during the Great Belt. They can also launch a stationary train in such an inclination. But even standardlok (like Traxx) can make full weight of freight trains across the bridge, but on condition that they take charge and go into the slopes with good speed.
Unlike, for example, the Golden Gate Bridge there is no possibility to pass the connection by bike or on foot. [5]

Worth viewing full screen.
Skanör med Falsterbo är en tätort och kommundel i Vellinge kommun i Skåne län. Den utgörs av de under 1900-talet sammanvuxna, och sedan 1754 gemensamt styrda, medeltida småstäderna Falsterbo och Skanör, som dock fortsatt utgör två olika postorter, och utgjorde två separata församlingar till 2002. Gränsen mellan Skanör och Falsterbo består traditionellt av en fornminnesmärkt tångvall som löper mellan naturområdena Flommen och Skanörs ljung.
In the past, the settlement was called Barsebäcks (fishing)lage or just Läget. In dialect: Lajjed or Læjjed. The dialect and place name archive in Lund objected in the early 1980s to the choice of the name Barsebäckshamn for the buildings in and around the old Barsebäck (fishing) location. Archive director Göran Hallberg wrote in the Sydsvenska ortnamsällskapet's year-end 1984: "For cultural-historical reasons, according to DAL, the multi-hundred-year location (known in writing since the 16th century) is preferable to the late - only in the 20th century - pasted-on port, which has a narrower semantic scope." www.barsebackshamnalag.se
History
The modern port was built in 1879-82, and was taken over by the state in 1922 and modernized then. In 1907, the Kävlinge-Barsebäck Railway was built, which then had its terminus here, and in connection with this the Sjöbobadet tourist hotel was also built.
In 1914, a biological station was built here by Lund University.
In the harbor is the Maritime Rescue Society's Rescue Station Barsebäckshamn.
To the west of Barsebäck Harbor in Öresund is the pinnacle lighthouse Pinhättan.

I'm overjoyed to have this fledgling GSW visiting my garden regularly this week, hoping to get a shot of him/her with a parent. Grabbed this shot in fading light having waited an hour for him to appear.
I delight in the sunshine this morning with dew (90 percent humidity) I can't decide which to capture; everything looks so fresh.
Even the very tiny things, 3.5 cm / 1.38 inches across. And an almost-windless morning!
Turning Torso (English for "turning or turning torso/upper body") is Sweden's and the Nordic region's tallest skyscraper located at Lilla Varvsgatan in Västra Hamnen, Malmö and inaugurated on August 27, 2005. The building was designed and constructed by architect Santiago Calatrava and is owned by HSB Malmö. The building is 190.4 m high and is essentially a residential building. Thanks to its considerable height, the house has become a natural landmark in the Öresund region, and as such has to some extent replaced the large Kockum crane as a symbol of the city. It can be seen a long way from both sides of the Öresund and is also fully visible from the binoculars at Kärnan in Helsingborg.
Upon completion, Turning Torso was Europe's second tallest residential building and the world's first twisted skyscraper.[2]
The fishing village was founded in 1776 when the two brothers Rasmus Andersson Borste and Jöns Andersson Borste were given permission to build their own houses along the coast. They were attracted by the rich supply of herring and soon gained several neighbors. [1] The fishing village was named after the Brush brothers and had 500 inhabitants in the early 19th century.
During the cholera epidemic that ravaged the village in 1853, a quarter of the population fell ill and 31 people died. [2] The port, which was built between 1885 and 1887, was paid for in part by the state. At the turn of the last century, there were 122 commercial fishermen with 32 boats and 49 echoes in Borstahusen as well as schooners that transported beets, limestone and cement. [1]
In 1921, Gustafsson Skeppsvarv was built in the harbor and a few years later another shipyard was built. In the early 1950s, Axel Bengtsson's Boatyard was added. In total, more than 300 boats were built in Borstahusen until the last shipyard was closed down in the 1970s. [3]
Skanör with Falsterbo is an urban area and district in Vellinge municipality in Skåne county. It consists of the medieval small towns of Falsterbo and Skanör, which merged during the 20th century and were jointly governed since 1754, which, however, continue to form two different post offices, and formed two separate parishes until 2002. The border between Skanör and Falsterbo traditionally consists of a seawall marked as an ancient monument, which runs between the natural areas Flommen and Skanörs ljung.
Landskrona citadel or Landskrona castle is a fortress in Landskrona, Skåne county.[1] The citadel is one of the Nordic countries' best-preserved water fortresses from the 16th century with a well-preserved moat system. There has also been prison. There is both an old dungeon and a prison tower here.
Nowadays, the citadel is owned by the Statens Fastighetsverk. The citadel has been a state building monument since January 25, 1935.[2] The castle is used for party arrangements and guided tours.
