    SÅ flink du er! Fantastiske bilder!! Vanskelig å velge 3 favoritter blandt disse.., men jeg er veldig svak for fjell, så jeg digger nr 29! 32, 35 og det siste er helt konge også! Ønsker deg et flott nytt år!

    Hei Ida

    Takker så mye for det. #44 var et av de største høydepunktene i 2010, og jeg blir nok nødt til å dra tilbake igjen til Rwanda…

    Se og lær! Jeg kjenner igjen en del av bildene fra fotomessen på Lillestrøm. Jeg har valgt meg ut disse 3 – av ulike grunner:
    Nr. 12. Jeg skvatt da jeg så dette bildet på Lillestrøm. Snakker om å " ta det på kornet".
    Nr. 24: Drama i isødet som påminnelse om at livet i naturen ikke alltid er noen dans på roser
    Nr. 32: "Less is more" – dette må det være mulig å nyte uten å tro at dette er det siste isfjellet som slukker lyset når det drar..
