Going to be stormy.

  Lovely shot. Strong atmospheric vibe with presence. Dinamic composition and the light is superb

Birna, there's something weird in the version I'm viewing

A border between sharp and unsharp.
Almost like processing hadn't finished????

Hm. I see this as well. Might be an upload error. I'l check the original.

The weirdness must have occurred after upload, as this wasn't seen in the original. However, I took the opportunity of making a new version whilst at it.

I've become quite familiar to the inner layout and workings of the regional  hospital, where my friend has been under intensive care and treatment for a week now.

The architecture is what is commonly conceived as 'modern Scandinavian', and to underscore this further, the walls are prominently decorated with excerpts from 'Kringla heimsins'.

From Wikipedia, slightly edited:

Heimskringla, or Kringla heimsins (Norwegian), is the best known of the Old Norse kings' sagas. It was written in Old Norse in Iceland. While authorship of Heimskringla is nowhere attributed, some scholars assume it is written by the Icelandic poet and historian Snorri Sturluson (1178/79–1241) c. 1230. The title Heimskringla was first used in the 17th century, derived from the first two words of one of the manuscripts (kringla heimsins, "the circle of the world").

UV sunflowers. Taken with my old workhorse, Nikon D3200 with built-in Baader-U filter and the Coastal 60mm f/4 APO lens. Not high UV levels on a hazy day, yet I was able to get the shot with a hand-held camera.


  Always such an inspiration

Lost in Castelsaraceno. After crossing the famous tibetan bridge (longest in the world?) we had some difficulty finding our way back to main square. We asked in this door and the whole family on father, mother, grandmother, kids came out to give directions. The destination was 3 min away by foot  ;D

Nice but a bit scary. The bridges I saw in Nepal had less openings between the boards.
Thanks for finding it.
