Train ride back to Copenhagen from the Roskilde Festival

It was nearly 3 a.m. when I took today’s photo. Less than a half hour before I was enjoying one of Ghost’s first major performances at the Roskilde Festival. Six or seven hours after this pic I was back on the train going in the opposite direction from Copenhagen (København) to Aarhus.

A walk to Wahkeena Falls

Path to Wahkeena Falls

Today’s photo is from our bike tour along the Columbia River Gorge a year and a half ago. Next week we are going for another (hopefully) scenic adventure in the opposite direction down (instead of up) I-5. We will be in Yosemite in about 48 hours where we will spend much of our spring break. I’m looking forward to some more waterfalls.

Rosenborg Castle interior

Today’s wallpaper comes from inside Rosenborg Castle. The more than 400-year old castle in Copenhagen, Denmark is pretty cool inside and out from any angle.

My random image for today is another photo from Norway. Norway’s fjords reminded me of a cross between Hawaii and Yosemite. In just over a week I’ll be in Yosemite. I’m bringing along The Photographer’s Guide to Yosemite. Hopefully the weather will cooperate like it did on the day I did Norway in a Nutshell.

Holmenkollen Park Hotel

Holmenkollen Park Hotel Rica – Oslo, Norway

I’d like to stay at this place someday. Located near the ski jump in Oslo, when I last visited in 2011 the Oslo Metro was being extended to this part of the city. Perhaps it is done now.

This building has a rich history. Initially a sanatorium in the 19th Century, the Germans occupied the place during World War 2. I love the dragestil (dragon style) architecture. It reminds me of a colorful Stave Church.
