🇳🇴🇺🇦 Hope you'll all have a peaceful and relaxed Sunday❣️ This was (unfortunately he is no longer alive) Nero, a wonderfully well-behaved and good boy who got along well with most - especially his little human sister whom he loved dearly from day one.

🇳🇴🇺🇦 Happy Friday❣️ 🤨 Oslo today - humid, foggy and grey... This photo (February 2020), a view of the Oslofjord bathing in brilliant afternoon sunshine from a cloudless sky - caught from a ship's deck, is more in line with the kind of weather I wanted for the weekend!

🇳🇴🇺🇦 Wishing you all a nice Wednesday❣️ This No 10 somewhere in Oslo sees itself important enough to have security cameras. 😁 In my opinion any No 10 should also have a cat - so I added one...

🇳🇴🇺🇦 Happy Tuesday❣️ I visited my mallard friends this afternoon, - and to my surprise most of the pond was frozen (the last few nights have been pretty 🥶 cold). Usually there are about 30-40 mallards in the pond this time of year - today there were only these six.

🇳🇴🇺🇦 Have a great Monday and start of a new week❣️ Same tree - and moon (🤪), - shot on different dates in early January. One done by camera, one done by cell phone. I usually prefer using "real" cameras, but this time the cell phone camera did the trick, didn't it?

Have an awesome Thursday❣️ 😄 We all at times takes some (or many) failed photos, - believe me - I have numerous of those! But with an image editor program maybe you can make one look like ... some kind of art? - Like this one of a mallard couple having a conversation?

Have a nice Wednesday❣️ Some mixed flower bouquets for you today. - Actually looks pretty great, - not bad at all for being sold in an average grocery store...

Happy Tuesday❣️ The 83cm tall Sinnataggen (Angry Boy, 1940), by sculptor Gustav Vigeland is a well-known Oslo icon, the artist's most famous sculpture. Has been vandalised several times, in 1991 it was stolen - fortunately it was found after 11 days and quickly put in place.

Happy Monday and start of a new week❣️ Hope you all had a relaxing Sunday! 😄 As some of you know, - I can never get enough of sunsets. - I caught this colorful version last week on my way to our local shopping center, beautiful isn't it?

Have wonderful Saturday❣️ Much of the snow in our local park has partly melted away - and partly turned to shiny ice, - it did not feel safe to walk there yesterday. 😄 But luckily it was perfectly safe to capture the colorful sunset by camera...

Happy Friday❣️ My four legged friend Lorry's dad sent me this photo yesterday: 😁 Sometimes it's pretty relaxing to sit down and watch the world go by - or just look at a pony eating an afternoon snack...

Have a terrific Thursday❣️ While I impatiently wait for the neighborhood trees to once again put on their green spring attires (in a couple of months or so), - I'll enjoy the sights of the silhouettes of their bare branches against Mother Nature's latest work of art...

Have a great Wednesday❣️ Every now and then, Mother Nature creates sunsets like this one - an unusually pink one captured during a walk along the waterfront in Oslo on a calm March afternoon in 2022.

Happy Tuesday❣️ An old tree in my neighborhood has decorated itself with moss, - in my eyes quite beautiful on a #ThickTrunkTuesday ...

Have a great Monday and start of a new week❣️ Here's looking at you babe... The sculpture Eyes (1997) by French-American artist Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) next to the Astrup Ferner Museum at Tjuvholmen in Oslo. 😄 For some reason many doesn't think it looks like eyes...

Have a preaceful and relaxed Sunday❣️ On a Sunday, wouldn't a little church history be appropriate?

Wishing you all an amazing Saturday❣️ Photo shot a couple of hours hour ago: Temperature is well below freezing in Oslo, - but Mother Nature compensated that by giving us those gorgeous sunset red/orange colors, - and added the moon and Venus on a dark blue background...

Happy last Friday - and day - of January 2025❣️ This is - actually more correct was - George. If he was still alive he'd be thirtysome years old! (Photo shot in January 1999) He was a sweet, gentle guy - enjoying life mostly indoors with some of my relatives.

Have a great Thursday❣️ Fact: - The calendar says January 30th. - But I almost got a few seconds of spring feeling when I passed our florist this evening, - aren't they gorgeous?

Have an awesome Wednesday❣️ The Frogner Park in western Oslo on a beautiful October day in 2008. For many years my workplace had offices just a stone's throw from the park, - and what better place to occasinonally spend our lunch breaks on sunny days?

Happy Tuesday to you all❣️ Note to the management of our local weather gods: Can you and your crew please give us some nice ☀️ sunny days? - We are tired of fog, rain, sleet and snow! Attached is a photo that may indicate what kind of weather we'd really appreciate:

Have a wonderful Monday❣️ If you happen to be near Oslo City Hall, you can't help but hear them - the 49 bells in the carillon at the top of the right tower playing on the hour every day from 07:00 - 24:00 - everything from classical pieces to newer pop music.

Wishing you all a peaceful and relaxed Sunday❣️ As I've mentioned several times before - I'm definitely no winter/snow lover, - this photo is for those of you who actually love and enjoy that cold white stuff. 😄 Do I hear someone humming 🎶Walking in a Winter Wonderland🎶?

Wishing you all a great Saturday❣️ Oslo didn't get that white Christmas many (not me) dreamed of - we got a white new year. The January 8th golden sunset behind the snow-covered trees was beautiful, - but honestly - I prefer trees covered with spring green foliage... 😄

For different reasons I've been off of all social media for a while... (btw - I am fine) With these sunrise photos I shot on Dec. 29th 2024 I hope you all had a great Christmas holiday and New Years celebration, - and I wish you all a Happy and healthy 2025❣️

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas Day❣️ We've had thick fog in Oslo all day, - fortunately it seems to be disappearing. Photo: Same date eighteen (!) years ago, - that day the sun managed to break through the fog, and 🎅Santa found his way - albeit a little late...😄

Have a wonderful Saturday❣️ Winter solstice means we are moving towards brighter times - not necessarily caused by 🌨️ snow. The meteorologists predicted no white 🎄 Christmas in Oslo this year, - but the weather gods clearly have other plans: This was at 3:40 this morning.

Happy Friday❣️ In my opinion, a bouquet doesn't always have to contain flowers to be beautiful, - how about this variant made of wintergreens?
