SkyWatch Friday.

All these pictures are taken yesterday.   Threee of them in the series of Sødra Cell cellulose factories, which is the pittoresque view from our house.  The first of them was the last taken, just before the sun disappeared.
The moon pictures is from last night.
(I had a little trouble with the tecnique to get them in right order - the two last is in right order to each other.)

SkyWatch Friday.

Here is my contribution for this week's skywatch.  Both of them taken from my veranda.   The first one yesterday, the second today - as the sun is disappearing behind the hills a little past 3 o'clock p.m.
The big clouds on the first picture is NOT smoke from the factory!!  (Just a little down to the left.)
Happy Skywatch everyone!

SkyWatch Friday.

Last Saturday we had a necessary errand in Drøbak, a small town in our neighbourhood. There was a beautiful fall day, and we took a walk along the seaside in the city. You see the Oslofjorden against the North, the seaway towards Oslo.


This was taken to-day's afternoon, just as the sun had disappeared behind the hill to the right. The now famous view from our veranda.

A little earlier this afternoon I noticed a helicopter sounding nearby, and found this one standing absolute calm in the air. Someone hanging in a line and obviously doing a work on the pylon beneath. Fascinating!

Happy Skywatch everyone!

SkyWatch Friday.

This week we have followed the Fiest of Tabernacle in Jerusalem by television. My mother-in-law is there with a Norwegian group right now. It is her first time in Israel, and she is so exited. This picture, taken from within The Citadel in Jerusalem, we took on our last visit there early in 2008. Now we are longing to go back there as soon as we can.




This is the beautiful full moon we could enjoy last Saturday: taken not far from our house.

SkyWatch Friday

Last Saturday we went to Frognerseteren together with our eldest daughter who at the present is patient on Rikshospitalet (The main hospital in Norway) for a medical examination of her disase (Bechets syndrome). It was a very beautiful day, making good for all of us.

The profile of the restaurant against the sky.

This is the view from our sitting place outside the restaurant, looking over Oslo city and fjord.

And on our way down from the hill we could watch the building of the new Holmenkollen arena for skijumping.
