A study of wood and windows
Most of the building in the Norsk Folkemuseum were made of wood. I loved the intricate designs you could see on some of them. Most windows had the cutest hatches and I loved the reflection in the glass. I got inspired and ended up taking many photos of wood and windows.

I promised her to come and visit her in Norway, and this summer I did! Before flying up to visit her, I first spent a few days in Oslo. She lived inContinueContinue reading “First day in Oslo”
