Walking around the Viking market I spotted his gentleman sitting in the sunshine carving intricate patterns in his wooden boxes. Well worth exposing a few pixels :0)

I was sitting on the grass talking to the wife and a photo opportunity came along all on his own. His shield looked a bit worn. The fire was set by a potter firing his pots the old way.

Going against the digital trend and just to show what you can achieve with analogue here’s a shot from a few years ago.

I have a confession to make. As I wrote last week I was going to the Bi-annual Viking market at a local town. However the weather beat us back even before we got half-way. The heavens opened and, we had torrential rain. So we beat the retreat and will try again in two years time. Until then this is a shot I took 4 years ago at the same event. Vikings waiting to go into battle …once health and safety checked that the grass wasn’t too wet :0)

I’ll admit that this is an old fav. I took it in 2006 at a Viking market. These two were entertaining the kids.I just love the action in this shot. Just goes to show don’t mess with a Troll :0)

I shot it using a Canon S3 IS.
