Let your arms enfold us
through the dark of night
Will your angels hold us
till we see the light.
Sleep-angels will watch over you
and soon beautiful dreams will come true
Can you feel spirits embracing your soul
so dream while secrets of darkness unfold
Lyrics by Fionnuala Sherry/Rolf Løvland
First out on my urban update is Finland
The dome of the gorgous cathedral in Helsinki ,here seen from the harbour above some other
interesting architectonic buildings. This cathedral could really have filled the whole page !
Equipment: Casio QV-8000
I leave Finland with this night shot of the famous ski jumping hills in Lahti !! Nicely illuminated.
Equipment : Canon EOS 50 , Canon EF 28-70 f/2.8 L
Next out is Stockholm ,Sweden !
Looking towards Gamla Stan !
Equipment : Casio QV-8000
Stockholm downtown:Sunset over Sveavegen ,a late warm summer evening !
Equipment : Canon EOS 50 , Sigma 18-35 ASP.
Naturhistoriska Museet ,with the real fantastic Cosmonova movie theater ,they claim it's the biggest screen
in Europe ,almost too big I thought !! Highly recommended though !
The main entrance of the building here seen with an focal length of only 18 mm wich gives it the
distored and 'overwhelming' look !!

So I'll finish with 3 bonus photos !
First one is from 'my' own city : Trondheim , which can seem just as grey and dull like any other citys but there are
suprising green lounges ,like this one behind Stiftsgården . To find a string ensemble playing is a bit unusual
though but this photo was taken during the European Youth Music Festival last summer !!
....if I just ever get the time to be a tourist in my 'own' city !!
Equipment: Kodak DC200
An aerial shot over Hokksund ,Norway !! A photo from my 'old' sailplane series. My brother trying to throw me out of the
plane !!! Not too high above the ground either ..........and no engine........
Equipment:Canon EOS 50 , Canon EF 28-80
Last one on this update : The orginal 'tulip from Amsterdam' ,well more precisely from the wonderful flowergarden in
Lisse Keukenhof ,The Netherlands ,an 'ocean' of flowers in all colors !! You just got to see this place if you ever
are in Netherlands at spring time !
Equipment : Canon EOS 50 , Canon EF 28-80.
