Roald Amundsen, the famous polar explorer, spent his last days in Tromsø where he left for his last mission in 1928. In fact it was a rescue mission to save his collegue Umberto Nobile who crashed with a hot air ballon north of Spitzberg. Amundsen and the whole rescue team nevar came back, neither did the Nobile crew they tried to save. There are a few statues and a polar museum in Tromsø to remind the story of this glorious explorer...
I think it's safe to call this a new obsession. I just love the inverted "negative" look of the L'Instnat+close-up shots. It's even driven me to break my own "No Selfie Policy". I'm into how distorted and creepy these selfies look.

“Essaouira is at once familiar and exotic with its fortified walls, fishing harbor and seagulls soaring and screaming over the town…infinitely Moroccan: narrow alleyways, wind that reputedly drives people crazy, the smells of fish guts and damp sea air mixed with aromas of spices and thuya wood, women in white haiks (veils), midday palm-tree shadows on red city walls, and the sound of drums and Gnawa singing reverberating from shops and houses.” http://www.lonelyplanet.com/morocco/ #Morroco #Essaouira #Redbird
“Piedra Blanca truly belies the natural rustic beauty found in the Ojai Ranger District. First, you cross Sespe Creek, which was designated as a National Wild and Scenic River in 1992. The creek has been given this entitlement due to its unusual gorges, the interesting geology in the area, such as Piedra Blanca, and for its role as a critical habitat for the endangered California condor” - http://www.trails.com/
