Hello Mr Woodcock,

Following my first set of photos I thought you may enjoy the enclosed pictures of Norway's
landscapes and wildlife. They will probably not fit in your Blog but I thought that you will find them interesting. I
took the picture with the snow on the road in the County of Hordaland (East of Norway) where I visited Arnardo. The
others come from the beautiful area called Vesteralen in the Norland County (North-East). The whales on the pictures
are two males sperm whale. They can be as heavy as 12 Elephants. In 1820 an 85feet long sperm whale attacked and sank
the whaleship Essex. This accident has inspired Herman Melville's book « Moby-Dick ».
