This beach is very special. It is filled with millions of these pebbles and it is pretty steep so it is real hard to walk it.
When big waves hit it produce an unique sound when the pebbles roll out.

The mountain in the background is called Drangen.

Had to capture this moment when the moon was in such a great position.
The mountain you see is called “KrÃ¥ketindan”, Peaks of the Crow in English, and is about 800 meters above sea level.
Soon I will venture up there to take some mountain pictures. Still a bit too much snow to trek safely.

This is the harbor where I have my fishing boat. The seawall is very effective to keep out bad weather and big waves.
Really enjoyed the evening light and the reflection of the mountains.

A snow storm made it impossible to go outside so I settled for taking pictures indoor. Notice how the wind are sweeping the trees.
But even when there is a blizzard you can see the blue sky in the background signaling better weather.
This was was photographed on second March 2007, but it is snowing outside today too.

I’m a big fan of the old boatsheds! They have such great texture and colors and tell stories about old times.
Notice the planks in the foreground that are used to get fishing boats out on the ocean without much hassle.

In the back you can see some beautiful mountains called Stakken and Snøtinden.
