I don't disagree. Or maybe just one person.

Yes, that really captures that post-rain damp feeling.

So many to like. ALL excellent. Bravo, you won!

Love the fog element. Brilliant.

Just wonderful scenery.

Great series. Rural slice of life at it's best.

Fab shot, absolutely great.

Not the sort of light we associate with Tuscany! Nicely low key.

Sometimes the urge to get out and about with the camera deserts us. Then its time to think of something new to photograph.

That old farmhouse is interesting. Pity it is not inhabited anymore.

Looks like a great walk to repeat on a nice sunny day.

Good to see you back here.

I think this is the best shot in this set. I imagine it is not easy to take these shots.

Yes you have caught the after a rainstorm vibe very nicely with this shot.

Engineering feat

As you might have guessed from my recent photos I was in trip to northern Norway recently, so over next weeks I will post here some photos from my trip.
Today I want to show photos from Kiruna, Sweden, where we stayed for night on return trip. Kiruna is known for its iron ore mining and now they are relocating part of city eastward to make space for new mining area. Among other buildings they plan to move church about 5 km. Church is 35x35 meters and weights about 600 tons, so it's quite impressing engineering task. I walked from hotel to church to see preparations for moving, church itself was behind fence but one can see that it is already up from ground and on beams. Moving is planned for week 35, for this they widen roads and remove some bridges along path. Here are some pics I managed to get.

That's crazy! There must be some very valuable or plentiful ore down thee to make this a viable project. Interesting stuff Vahur.

This is pretty incredible, the cost of this operation will be up there in the stratosphere. A fun Engineering project for somebody.

This has been done before, but is pretty rare.

I like this one best. The others just seem a bit too violet for my taste. Lightniing photography is tricky - well done.

These make wonderful abstracts from a fine set.

I can smell the damp ground 😁

That is truly impressive. Nice looking building too.
