About Yesterday was a special day waving goodbye to a large crew of "vikings" sailing off for two months across the North Sea to Dublin. The vessel is a replica of an old vikingship that was the high technology of those times. They sailed from the town of Roskilde where we have a vikingship- and marinearchaeologiymuseum. Thousands of people were gathered to see them sail away, and lots of boats followed them up through the fjord, also smaller longboats. I saw this in Roskilde and later on around where I live. Iīm lucky to live by this old vikingfjord and it was somewhat melancholic seing this grand ship from our past sail through the same waters where this used to be a common sight.
When the people took off they were told: "And remember: You are NOT allowed to drink, rape or kill!" That caused much laughter.
The people are supposed to relive the past and see how well this vessel maneuvres at sea, how life is aboard without common comfort etc.
Anyway hereīs one of many photos from when they passed my side of the fjord last night:-) Sorry about the horizonline!

You really blew my cover, didnīt you mr. Crowther soon to be Mr. Flesh ready to be consumed by a wild viking, but first Iīll take advantage of you:-o Now where did I put that rope that took me so looong time to make strong, so no British men could ever escape...? Yessss the poor photoclub and not to mention the knittingclub for men all forced out on open sea with me as their commander - no cry out for mummy helps here! You might run but you canīt hide, Crow!

Sorry Annemette, I just realised this was a 'Critiquer's Corner' photo, so I'd better think of something imaginative to say... hmm, gosh, thinking is hard work, isn't it? Nice capture.

Oh God... you're on your way. Now I am truly scared. I don't believe your 'about' for a second... the reality is, you've commandeered your longboat, packed it with blindfolds, straps, whips and chains and are sailing for the UK! You're well prepared... the boat is groaning under the weight of all the vats of skull and bones stew you've prepared in advance for the journey (that would explain your not putting any photos on Usefilm yesterday; you were too busy in the kitchen) and you've roped in lots of terrified men from the local camera club to do the rowing. You told them the trip was a 'photographic expedition', but fed them stew and press-ganged them into service whilst they were under its narcotic influence. Now the poor souls are terrified... the camera club was never like this... being squarely lashed by a blonde goddess with alienbreath and an S&M fetish is a long way from setting f8 and 125th and taking lousy photos of glamour models abroad, which is what they thought they would be doing... OH GOD! SOMEONE SAVE ME! HEEEELLLLLLPPPP! ;)

THank you very much, Simone:-) I forgot to write that the crew consists of 69 people which also gives an indication of how big the longship is.
