Bridge in Oslo
Snapped a photo of a nice bridge near my apartment in Oslo. I often walk over this bridge when taking a detour to the shops.

Sun in Oslo
It’s often hard to see the sun in Oslo, but here is proof it does exist

Birdies in the snow
Apparently snow is edible! These pigeons were pulling out all sorts of edible delights from within the snow pack. And here I was thinking it was nothing but water!
And a bonus photo of a duck

Dawn near the stream
I went for a wander down the side of the stream near my apartment in Oslo. The sun creeping over the horizon made for a pleasant walk through the snow.

New camera!
My trusty old Canon S1IS died last year. I’ve been making do with a cruddy piece of junk bottom of the line Canon crapbox since then, so decided that since I’m in an exotic new land and popping shots off constantly that I should upgrade to something better. So today I bought a brand new Canon G12. It’s smaller than my old Canon S1IS but the picture quality should be somewhat better. Lack of a decent zoom range will be annoying, but it should be ideal for indoor shots and wide angle outdoor shots. The weather was pretty awful today, but I wanted to try out my new toy so took the following photos with it for your (well, more my) viewing pleasure

Crazy water sculpture
This is a crazy sculpture thingy sitting in the water beside the Oslo opera house. It turns on it’s axis in line with the tide and wind.

Frozen stream in Oslo
I went for a walk along the stream near my apartment. The river is starting to freeze over. I wasn’t ballsy enough to go stand on it, but it sure does make sure an idyllic view.
Funky looking half-frozen effect.

Oslo Opera house
I walked down to the Oslo Opera House (“Operahuset” in Norwegian). The walk to the top was slippery as heck. I should have realised it was a bad idea to walk up there when I had to walk past a sign warning not to walk up there and clamber underneath a chain blocking access. But other people were chugging their way up, so I headed up the ridiculously slippery slope to the top and got an awesome view out across the fiord.

Steep incline, glassy smooth ice .... not the best combination!
