My photo challenge friend Ellen owns a cabin at Ble and a little while ago I was invited to stay there for a week end. The cabin is situated in the forest below Blefjell in Buskerud (Norway) so there are a lot of hiking possibilities both in the mountain and in the forest. We normally bring our dogs too but this time the dogs stayed at home, there is a mystical illness among dogs in the Oslo area these days and no one have found out what is the cause for this illness.

We both love photography so we hoped for proper weather for some cool shots. Friday evening was all rainy so we spent the time in doors by the fire, knitting. Saturday was a little bit rainy, but we went for a walk anyway. Saturday afternoon was sunny and warm so we had our dinner out doors. Sunday was OK, I slept too long (not a good thing for photography…..) so after breakfast the sun had disappeared, but we had a nice walk that day too.

Here are some shots from the trip:

I love these trips up to my friends cabin and the shots in todays post represent what I like so much about these trips 🙂

Have a lovely week!
