There are some very steep mountains on the road to Skjomen, a glacier etc.. and driving halfway in there, just before the "Niagara Fall" (Se other picture) I looked up... and saw this nice contrast. The harvest time is one of my favourit seasons... wrote a song about trees... and all of us... But don't ask me to sing it... I can fly like an eagle, but I sing like a crow...

THE TREE OF LIFE Copyright: Thor Gaarden

SEE ME CLIMBING - IN THE TREE OF LIFE MY LITTLE LEAVES ARE SHIVERING IN THE WIND AND SEE THE BRANCHES - SO THICK AND THIN EVERYONE IS GROWING FROM WITHIN

SO LET IT GROW, LET IT GROW, LET ME GROW THE TREE OF LIFE WILL LET IT ALL SHOW THAT THE WAY YOU GO - IS THE WAY YOU GROW

SEE ME PASS ON THROUGH THE WARM LEAVES OF GREEN I'VE ENJOYED ALL THE BEAUTY MY EYES HAVE SEEN AND THROUGH HEAVY WINTERS BENDING BRANCHES LOW I'VE FELT THE BURDEN OF THE WIND AND SNOW

SO LET IT GROW, LET IT GROW, LET ME GROW MY TREE OF LIFE WILL LET IT ALL SHOW THAT THE WAY YOU GO - IS THE WAY YOU GROW

AND WHEN THAT HARVEST STORM FINALLY COMES ALONG FOR THAT EVENING RENDEZVOUS WITH THE TREE IN YOU THE OLD LEAVES OF BROWN WILL BE THE FIRST TO GO I WILL FOLLOW THEM ONE DAY I KNOW

LIKE LITTLE SEEDS - WE'RE GROW'N ON OUR OWN TURNIN' FROM GREEN TO GREY AND BROWN LIKE A TREE - YOU AND ME FROM THE LOW - WE WILL GROW TO THE SKY - TO THE SKY - UP ON HIGH.

EPITAPH: SO DON'T YOU CRY DON'T YOU CRY NO DON'T YOU CRYYY 'CAUSE YOU WILL SOMEDAY CHANGE A TREE FOR A SKY

Another shot from around the harbour, how pink can it get...

Surrealistic... Psychodelic... Cool

These are pictures from my pre-panoramio life. So from a lot of them i don't know the exact name or place. Thank you for your comments. You have a lot of nice pictures too.

Greetings,

This Placemark is not correct. This is the top station for the mountainlift way above downtown Narvik

The road from Narvik to the golfcourse in Skjomen And the road goes on...

This is a big landmark here in our little town of Narvik in the north of Norway. If you look closely you can see the perfect profile of the sleeping queen, all dressed up with a white gown of snow. (The head is to the right)... Shot taken with max zoom, very early 04.59 on a beautiful spring morning in april

Bridge over icecold water... Shot taken towards the pretty long and beautiful Skjomen Bridge. Built in 1972 and 711m long. Main span is 525m...

This is the town center, correct location is lower down the hillside than this placemark shows

Grabbed my camera and went for the setting sun... very cooooooold november....
