I will try to take the time to go for a lunch walk with the camera once a week. This last week´s lunch walk was on a cold, but beautiful day. I walked towards the Nidaros Cathedral and down to the river. I shot both in colors and in b&w.
The Nidaros Cathedral. I just loved how the light fell upon it that day.
“The Trondheim rose” (Trondhjemsrosen) is a city symbol for Trondheim. Chosen because it has been in use since the middle ages, probably as a symbol for Saint Olaf that was buried close to where the Nidaros Cathedral is situated today. The rose is the rosa canina, commonly known in English as the dog rose (sounds brutal to me 😉 I found this particular rose at a small monument down by the river Nidelva.
Because of the cold there were lots of ice down by the water.
I don´t care I´m freezing – I really like to photograph things in the cold.
On my way back to work, I went through the cemetery by the cathedral. Love the low winter sun.
And when I turned around it was hard to avoid my own shadow.
Snowberries (Symphoricarpos) in the winter sun.
I hope you enjoyed following me on my lunch walk. 🙂
