Tjaldsundbru

This bridge leads from the mainland attachment of the Lofoten and Vesteralen Islands and the further extensions of the Lofoten.

Wide Fjords

Lofoten and Vesteralen landscape just as you see it everywhere.

Wreck

This boat wreck that we came by twice on the Lofoten. I really liked the decay and I checked it out in detail.

Santa is out of breath

12 days of christmas? Santa is out of breath already! 

I hope you all helped him to get the work done. I sent out all the reindeers I could muster and got the sled all polished up.

Found in Soest, Germany, Dec. 23rd, 2014.

Reindeer-Walk

The reindeer family takes a walk through the fields.

Merry Christmas

Santa sent the reindeers out into the field. Christmas is over.

Sunny patches

Here is a beautiful view out the window of our campground hut in Norway.

Birdy in the Rain

This is a poor little birdy in the summer rain in Norway - Lofoten, summer 2013

Magic light

When the light is standing low, especially if there are dark clouds overhead, concentrating the light on the ground, we get these spectacular land scape views. I am glad I can capture them in camera and make them part of this blog.

Lofoten, summer 2013.

Foggy Morning

About 3:30 a.m., Lofoten, a foggy morning and frozen fingers on the camera. But it was worth it.

Proud Bird

This statue of an iceberg with a cormorant was displayed in one of the Lofoten fjords up north. It looked funnily out of place in the summer.

Plane coming in!

The airport in Evenes, Lofoten displayed a plane on the inside of the terminal. The writing "Experimental" on it was making sense, I guess.

Attention, please!

I promised I have more chipmunks. And here is yet another one!

Chipmunk, yet again

You would not believe how many chipmunk photos I have!

New England Grave Stones

I love the old New England Gravestones. These are from downtown Boston.

Sothern Coast

This image I took on the south coast of Madeira.

No 26 - No 25

The sheds are probalby garages? I don't really know. We found them by the road side on Madeira.

And this is that magic hotpot at the backpackers' place of yesterdays image.

Summer 2012, Iceland.

A house in the mountains

This is a backpackers' quater in the highlands of Iceland near Snaefells mountain (not Snaefellsnes).

We stayed the night there and engulfed ourselves in the natural hotpots that you see out infront of the house and to the side.

The deep spillway

This is the spillway of a dam in the Icelandic highlands.

Road in the Sunshine

These roads in the empty landscape, lying in plain sunshine, just make me grab my camera.

Iceland, summer 2012

A very hidden mountain that is very famous, still few toursist notice it.

Herðubreið.

 

Iceland, summer 2012

Glacial River Land

Where the glacier retreats, vegetation starts out. The greens are as intense as the black of the vocanic rock is.

The View into the Blue

When driving through the high lands in Iceland, it is important to stay on the tracks that are established. Even if the area looks like a big gravel bed, this is glacial sediment that is conquered, slowly, by plants and animals and if you drive over it, you destroy the flora that is already estabilished.

This is the section between Snaefells snow cap and Vatnajökull glacier. The glacier is that white edge in the back ground. You can not believe how big it is, untill you are right there. And then from horizon to horizon, there is just that gigantic egde of ice.

Painted Land

Icelandic mountains are coming up in many different colors and give the impression that the land was painted by someone really creative.

Ice Bridge

When exploring the back side of Vatnajökull glacier in the Icelandic highlands we found this arching ice bridge in this vast and empty part of the rock desert.

The Rolling Stone

A huge rock, rounded by Vatnajökull glacier

Snaefell Icecap

This is the ice cap of Snaefell mountain. This is in the Icelanddic highlands, not on Snaefellsnes.

Intense Green

Horses

Look at all the follies that are passed out next to their mothers!
