Well, I meant paddling ;) But in conditions like this, it really feels like sailing sometimes - through space that is! The blue patch floating to the right is ice starting to form on the water surface...

Beautiful, Erik!!!...

Yes, I agree... in the end, that's what we're all here for... :-)

It is also one of the reasons I live in beautiful Norway... a "lost country"..., as one of my favorite Norwegian nature photographers called Norway in his beautiful photo-album...

Thanks!
Irina
