Challenge 508: Oslo lighthouse
I spent three days in Oslo, Norway, this week, giving talks at the MakingDesign conference held by the Norwegian design school IGM. A hugely enjoyable event.

Tuesday afternoon saw glorious sunshine, and on a stroll around the harbour taking photos for the event I chanced upon this rather splendid miniature lighthouse, perched on the quayside next to the boats.

Any chance of moving it to a location where it might be of some practical use? And can you get it to work?

High res is here.

Fabulous Stefan! I love it.

Steve has made this quite sneakily difficult by imposing a close up wide angle perspective on an object normally seen from a distance. Makes it hard to settle into more distant suitably 'lighthousy' backgrounds. Ho hum ........

Hi ant - I think the trick is to put it on photobox or similar then link to this site

Edit- I did not like all the background blur.
Once posted I guess we have second thoughts.

Emy, that is in south Florida.

Florida is great until Hurricanes hits.
