sun and sea, originally uploaded by Nerdine.

this picture was taken a few weeks back when I ventured on a trip to the islands half an hour's travel by boat from Oslo.
I have always had a fascination for water. I grew up by water, lived in it in the summer, on it in the winter. Water has always been an important part of my life.
The ever changing element - adapting and calming yet untamed and wild. It looks so innocent, and to me there is nothing so beautiful to watch as moving water. It soothes my soul whenever it is in uproar. It gives me strength.
This particular day was a wonderful autumn day. Not a could in the sky and I found a quiet little place down by the water in a small bay on a small island. And I felt absolutely wonderful. This picture I took then - in that bay, and looking at it I get all those wonderful feelings back. It was a very good day.
