By Accident

Without the ripples on the surface of the water focusing the sunlight into the lines running across the frame this image would have been less interesting. It happened by chance as I stepped into the water at the edge of the puddle looking through the viewfinder of my camera. Without that I probably would not have bothered to take the shot at all.

Hot

It has been quite hot here over the past couple of weeks, and I have to admit that I long for some rain and cooler weather now. But it seems to be so hot that showers and thunderstorms dissipate as soon as they start to move in over the town, and the forecast indicates that we will have to wait a few more days before this heat wave ends.

Monster Pylons

Power production in Norway is mainly hydropower based, but the production is not located where most people live. This means that the electricity have to be transported to where the main part of the population live. To do so you have to have massive cables and pylons like you see here. They are not pretty, but they are a necessary evil for modern day life as we know it.
