Image 1: The #ship SS #StatsraadLehmkuhl (Minister Lehmkuhl).
Image 2: The Labour Minister Lehmkuhl, on board his namesake, the ship Statsraad Lehmkuhl.

Based in #Bergen, it was a school ship for the Royal Navy since 1923 until it was donated to its current owner, a foundation for keeping the ship running since 1978. It is still being used in training courses for navies. Currently, it is going on a voyage around the globe, the #OneOceanExpedition – right now outside the east coast of USA en route to Los Angeles through the #PanamaCanal.

This 1990s film photo is part of a collection posted on "Temporal Fragments", my own photo blog at cosmicfuz.com. See the full selection and story at https://cosmicfuz.com/twice/

Creating a website is one way to avoid my discomfort with using social media, and specifically the big platforms. Anyone who visits the site is presented with a set of images and some writing.

Links to each collection can be quickly shared with family, friends, and anyone else interested. The process of organizing, writing about, and publishing each collection provides a sense of having completed a thought.

Have you had similar feelings about sharing your work?
