Taken on May 17th 2007 with Olympus E-500 digital camera. Click image for larger view.
17th of May is the Norwegian Constitution Day and the National Day. We celebrate that our constitution was signed on May 17th in 1814.
Was a very gray and wet day here in the north, but had to take a shot of the family house with a wet flag blowing in the breeze.

Nydelig. Var vått her også! Skikkelig grønt og frodig på kysten ser jeg.
I really like this photo; I find it haunting. Very nice.
This is how I picture the rural parts of Norway in my mind, and I would imagine it is much how my grandparents knew the countryside to be…
