Absolutely. We missed an opportunity to get an awesome shot of the Stavanger hotel like that today. I just didn't think of it.

^ Wonderful sunset photos.

Here's a joke you might hate me for, maybe not pc anymore, but . . .

"How many Newfoundlanders SSP forumers does it take to take a photo?
. . one to hold the camera, and one to hold the picture in front of it."

You're welcome.

Okay, that fog is really cool! I've never seen it like that in person before.

It was cool! I've also not seen it at this time of day. I've often seen this type of fog at night... but usually it burns away long before the sun comes out, especially when the sky is blue.

Beautiful fog pics; I miss the fog but not the cold temps it brings when it covers the entire city. It's 24° & sunny where I am today.

It hit 22C downtown, but it wasn't officially a 20C day at YYT. Still, by FAR our best day of the year to this point.

Went for a bike ride out to Fort Amherst this afternoon. Took a few snaps along the way - all phone pictures.

Looking at the city from Southside Road:


See the tiny boat? A guy was out in a little row boat!:


Speed boat out enjoying the day:


Again:


Once more:




City from Southside again:

Weather yesterday was fantastic. Spent my day between Signal Hill and Bowring Park. Both locations were on wheels... people certainly took advantage of the sun.

I never really noticed how long moss takes to turn green. Great photos though, looks like a really nice day
