Arctic explorers

Harriet and I, ready to embark on our great arctic adventure into the untouched wilderness of the Tromsø city center.

Snow in Tromsø

So, Harriet and I went to Tromsø during the winter. Tromsø is way up in the arctic circle. It apparently snows quite a lot in the arctic circle, who would’ve thought!

Tromsø Cemetery

Continuing my habit of taking photos of cemeteries covered in snow …

Snow day

We had the biggest snow dump I’ve seen in Dunedin city during 2011. Here are snaps from my camera from that day. Justine and I went to Poppas Pizza’s before going to see some snowboarders and skiers having a lot of fun on the hills.

They said winter was over …

The locals told me winter was over and there would be no more snow. Then I awoke to see this outside my bedroom winter …

(this happened quite a few weeks ago, just took me a while to post it)

Harry and Barney

I share an office with my two friends Harry and Barney Ponsonby. They’re quite awesome and keep me entertained when not working. I snapped some photos of them on a walk with their master Shay Ponsonby at lunch time.

Cemetery in Oslo

I normally find cemeteries kinda creepy, but there’s something I find very peaceful about them once there’s a nice dump of snow on them. This is one I stumbled across when I got lost walking home from town one day.

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.
