Pyramiden Spitsbergen

There has been lots of talk recently about Spitsbergen and Greenland. Here in Norway Pyramiden is an almost abandoned Russian Mining town on the archipelago.
I took this while sailing into the harbour on a visit here. You can see how it got its name.

I captured this cool mooring rope at the Bygdøynes ferry landing near the FRAM Museum in Oslo, Norway. For the best viewing experience, click to view a high resolution version.

Bear

Black And White Photography, David, Photography

We have bears in the woods in Norway. However it’s a lot safer to see them at  a safari park. There in lies my personal dilema, I feel so sorry for the Bears. They turn up on time for feeding and hundreds of people gather to watch. Don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t want to meet a bear on the trail. But if I did it would no doubt be just as scared as me…Hopefully.
