Same side of house as this one, but this time from kitchen window - yup, a lot of snow.

See this for more info on exactly how much snow, but I was impressed at the cat's ability to get across.

Back porch in snow

Back porch in snow

It snowed more than usual in late november/early december leaving us with close to a foot of hard snow by new years eve. At that point it started snowing again though, and yesterday it snowed 40-50 centimeters alone.

This image is taken from the back porch door and is meant to show just how much snow we have now - although it is somewhat difficult to have the sheer muchness of it translate properly to a picture.

Vassfjellet

Vassfjellet

I went for some downhill skiing today with all the wrong equipment, meaning my bum is hurting now. The local downhill and slalom resort is Vassfjellet, just south of Trondheim. This picture is taken from near the top. It's hard to see the slopes here, but they end around the small hill in the middle of the picture.

Trondheim by sunset early winter

Trondheim by sunset early winter

Here is an image of Nidelva (the Nid river) running around downtown Trondheim. It was taken in mid november, just before sunset. The old city bridge, is barely seeable further up river, and the spire of the Cathedral can be seen to the right. My university, NTNU, is located on top of the hill in the back.

17th of May norwegians celebrate the foundation of the Norwegian constitution back in 1814. The main part of the celebration, is a parade through the city or village. This image is taken from downtown Trondheim, at the spot where the parade starts. At the very front was a marching band from the local army settlement. Behind it is the first people from Katedralskolen, carrying flags showing the schools specialties. Those persons with red trousers and white coats are Russ, a term for high school seniors.

Tree in the water

Tree in the water

It's the same lake as the other image, just a different direction. I'm not what you would call a professional photographer, but I think the tree made it a well composited image.

Granåsen from the side

Granåsen from the side

The skijumps in the back of the image is Granåsen which held the nordic world championship back in 1997. The image itself is taken from in front of the farm who's track I rode my bike on.
