Has spring made it to Norway yet?
Here, we've been having swings from warm to cold and lots of rain. Last week, I thought we'd see duck come for a swim in our backyard!

Spring is here, but the temperatures are still around 10C as they were in March. In a week or so the temperatures may rise to 15C according to the forecasts. There are new green leaves on some bushes, and these automated lawn mowers that people have now are already running around to keep the grass down. The weather has been sunny in the last weeks, a bit too sunny for photographic purposes according to my taste.

We have a few tulips that are coming through, but nothing else.
We get one day at 16C, and the next at 1C... but at least the birds are back.
Plenty of muddy fields. Leftover gravel all over the place. On a 300 meter street near my house, there's about 50 potholes big enough to damage the car.

The Agfa PD16 Clipper is a 616 half-frame camera (2½ x 2). It has one shutter speed (plus B) and one aperture. The film is Ansco Plenachrome expired in 1949. I figured I would just shoot in bright daylight, develop the hell out of it and hope for something. I like the way these came out. The silouettes of the people are kind of ghostly and seem out of place at the beach.

I'm definitely surprised it didn't come out completely cooked!
