picture of the week
This weeks picture of the week was taken after the wedding for Marte and Lennart in Gamle Aker Kirke in Oslo. The church is one of the oldest buildings in Oslo and I wanted to take a photo that was a bit "medieval". They thought it was a good idea so I placed two old chairs near the stone wall and told them to look uncomfortable.
