Ewa and I took a walk out to a point on Onsala peninsula. It was the point where the pilots would have their watch to lead ships through the archipelago into G?teborg. A silly song by the who kept going through my mind ... "I can see for miles ..." http://www.dlridings.se/paw/2007/41.html The day after we took a long walk through the heath. http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/Shoebox/2006v41/07v41-0007.jpg.html http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/Shoebox/2006v41/07v41-0005.jpg.html Oh yes, I forgot about the pirate's (legal pirate, serving the king) sarcofag from the early 1700's (1711 or so): http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/Shoebox/2006v41/07v41-0001.jpg.html Lars Gathenhielm. His wife is lying next to him. He died at 29 and each sarcofag (out of white marble) cost 22,000 riksdaler back then (daler = the historical word that "dollar" comes from, I think. Tollar in Slovenien). That would be a lot of money today, it was an enormous sum back then. All for a corpse. What a waste. Square with a Rolleiflex T and the rest with M3 50/2.8 Elmar.
