As you probably know, Toby spent a week in Norway. Part of that time was in traveling to and fro with only a few workdays in Norway (part of the reason that I did not get to go with him). Since the days are short in Norway this time of year, he did not get much chance to take pictures with the camera I sent. In fact, he did not get to do any real tourist thangs. Mostly he worked. One day, though, he did get out and about - walking to a meeting with bankers. He took a few photos on his way. I think he takes photos of things he thinks I would like. He took some photos to show me the architecture.
Some good.
not so good, but interesting.
He went by a park and took a few pics.I had to ask him why he took some pics.
His answers:
Scissor trusses.
Sailboat, but the pole got in the way, 
the top of the pole was interesting. 
Churches are always interesting.
He is interested in bicycles - saying that even in winter the people rode their bicycles. 
And trash trucks. Once a trash man; always a trash man.
Sailboats and
ships
Harbor and birds.
and more birds 
another bird. 
and a statue of birds.These photos crack me up. I told him they were definitely blog fodder.

I like the pictures, a lot. Toby's photos show the common, the ordinary, the way the people who live there no doubt see their surroundings. Nothing fancy but good nevertheless. The pictures spoke to me. That's a good thing, right?
Which city is this, Lou?
And what Chris said.
Stavanger. Anyplace there is drilling, Halliburton is nearby.
I like the photos because they say, "I didn't have much time, but I was thinking you would like this..." The scissor trusses and trash truck are all Toby.
Great photos. Much like Gene takes.....
Gene and Toby may be long lost brothers.
