Color

We went for a walk last night at dusk. The gray concrete walls got darker as the light went dim. While the world was going dark, we discovered the toys that had fallen down from the kindergarten playground on top of the gray concrete cube. They made a great contrast to their surroundings. The picture is taken with an iPhone camera in dim light.

Happy in Oslo

Sun setting over Oslo
Beautiful sunset
Pink and peach skies

Today has been a long day. After work I picked up my cat from her last home, took her by the vet’s for a clean bill of health (stayed there for more than 2 hours) and moved her to a new home. She has lived with others for more than a year now (I had to giver her away in the first place because of allergies). A week ago, out of the blue, the guy she was living with called and said he was moving. He said he was going to put her to sleep. I asked for some time to find her a new home, and I found one. Kitty moved in with this great girl today! I’m so happy. I left her place so happy and releived. The beautiful sunset completed my day.
