Such a common sight, a cup of coffee, especially as it gets colder, at least here in North America. Most of us take a cup of coffee for granted. But did you ever wonder how many cups are consumed every day? According to Wikipedia the number is a staggering 2.25 billion cups per day. Just thought you would find that interesting.

We were lucky enough to visit Pyramiden on Svalbard a mining ghost town (Almost, population 5) It’s a Russian coal mining town from 1910. It’s the kind of place that you could spend a life time photographing, I had 2 hours and our group was accompanied everywhere by an armed guard. On the way from the boat I saw this pair I just had to stop and shot a couple of pictures. The light in the late afternoon was magical.
