Now that we're in Israel, it seems like a perfect time to recap Mike's visit with us in Brussels! He came to Belgium from Norway, and left Belgium for England. While in Belgium, he visited Mini-Europe with us, and he also wandered around town on his own, all the while snapping pictures. Mike is a serious amateur photographer, and he took a very cool picture of the Atomium in particular—actually, as he explained, it was 3 pictures taken in quick succession, each concentrating on a different level of brightness, and then digitally combined into a single photograph with a large range of contrast.
He also showed us pictures of his friend's house in Norway where he stayed, with the snowy fjords in the background. It was somewhat reminiscent to me of the views from the Sikirjdi's house in France; while the fjords in Norway have a very different flavor than those in the French Alps, they are both beautiful, snow-capped mountains, apparently viewable from the comfort of people's homes.
Back to Mike: He and I were roommates for a number of years in Cambridge, but it had been a while since we'd spent much time together. It was good to see him!
