Some pictures from the weekend

Yeah, that's what this is. Some of the best of the many, many pictures I've taken this weekend. Enjoy. :-)

My friends K and Dag-Erling's cat Gustav dozing in the warmth from his favorite lamp.

Cuddling Herman.

The Opera here in Oslo had a big premiere on Saturday - a production of Carmen in collaboration with the Covent Garden opera. It was sold out since the day before forever. But they decided to do something fantastic - they had the performance shown on a massive screen on the Opera roof and let people come watch it for free. :-) Seven thousand people came. :-o It was a little cold, but we brought blankets and things, so we were fine. :-) It was a great show and it was lovely seeing it out of doors like that, and watching the sunset at the same time. A really special night, with a huge crowd enjoying the show.

My friend KAS on the Opera roof in the interval. I'm so happy with this shot. Portrait?? :-) trilltrall said he wants to use it as his screensaver. :-D

The Harbor Warehouse in sunset.

A treestump in the woods that make up most of Oslo.

Raphael on his first outing this year.

Wood anemones growing in a patch of forest by my house.

The Anemone picture is great! Everybody shoots them from above. Far more interesting angle.

Great pictures! Love the one of Herman, and the one of KAS is fabulous, no wonder Trilltrall wants to use it as a screen saver :o)

Thanks, all, for your comments and compliments. I'm sorry for not responding here before - I am slow - and I had first an extremely busy week and then a week where I was sick, so I let some things slide. In favor of the ESC, I admit it. ;-) But now, better late than never.

Lemmy, thanks for tagging me!! It's my first blog award. Yay. :-) Thank you. I will do my bit very very soon ... :-)
