Let us know when you´ve taken the picture!
And thanks for digging into the archives! I know it´s a mess, with
different styles and varying quality, but that´s part of the fun .-)

I must let you down on the relations, but I do believe I know the farm
you
are talking about. I grew up about two km east of Gran "City".
It is a small word ;-)
Now I live at the opposite part of Norway, in a fjord, at a small
community
called Nordfjordeid.
I had a little look at some other of your photos. I really like this
one
http://foto.no/cgi-bin/bildekritikk/vis_bilde.cgi?id=174120
The low pitched colours and the light, and the story the picture
tells. A
very intimate portrait.
This one is another winner, simple and effective, brings back my own
childhood http://foto.no/cgi-bin/bildekritikk/vis_bilde.cgi?id=116345
In about a month I will go to my father. If I can find the time, I
could try
to look up the stone your kid is standing at. If I succeed finding it,
and
the light is good, I could come up with something completely different
than
your picture. My mind is already ticking with some ideas, not brilliant
ideas, but ideas...
That would be real fun :-)

I tried to answer earlier today, but it must have been lost in
cyberspace...
The next thing we´ll find is that you are related to my wife. Her
family comes from the Ringdalen farm just west of Gran. They still
have a house there but another family took over the farm (as well as
the name) a couple of generations ago.
The rest of you now see just how small a country with a population of 4
millions is. You find connections and relatives everywhere.

That's why it felt so familiar!
I have bathed there!!
I grew up near this lake, the name it is Bråa :-D
This makes it very likely that I have been sitting at the same stone
;-)
Its been a long time since I've been there. My father still lives in
the
same area. I'll have a look in his albums next time I'm "home".
Perhaps I'll even find a similar picture with myself there ;-)
What I do remember is that I took my first B&W pictures at the other
(eastern) end of this lake, using a very old "bellow" camera. Don't
know the
English word for it. I still have camera in my belongings, but have no
idea
where. I've also got some pictures from the eastern end using my first
135
camera an Arette 1A, http://www.99shadesofgrey.com/cameras/ Anyone
remembering them?

Thanks!
I'm not sure what the lake is called, it close to a place called
"Sagvolden"
in the forest east of Gran in Hadeland. It's i wonderful place for
the
kids, the lake is not too deep and there's a nice spot there for a
putting
up a tent.

Wow!
Dritbra! (Norwegian for beep good).
I envy you. And absolutely no rubbish ;-)
What lake is it? Got an idea on what part of the country, but what
lake?
