Stavanger is the fourth biggest city in Norway. It is situated on the southwest coast.
My aim is to try to capture something from every day, from the area nearby too, and when I am not at home I will still try to put up a photo from my archive.
Welcome back for another look.

Smoking or not smoking.
In Norway (according to statistics from 2014) there are now 13% of the population who smoke every day.
No one used the ashtray outside cafe Sting when I took this image.
I have no idea what the stats are here. I smoked the occasional cigar with a poker game, but not in years. My brother smokes a pack or two of cigarettes a day, and he'll never stop.
I don't have a single friend who smokes. The anti-smoking educational campaigns have been very effective in the USA. But, when I was in France a month ago, it was shocking how many people smoked!
