Hammer...fantastic photo's.....where did you get all the teeth? Are they sperm whale?
love the crystallized ice photo....woohoo.gif
Thanks! Yes, they are sperm-whale teeth: Real ones all of them. The Norwegian whalers was fishing/hunting the sperwhales until 1972(If I don't mistake) and those teeth are from this time. We fish/hunt other whales now who are smaller and got no teeth : The Minke-whales. It happen actualy in waters not so far from where I live...
We got killer-whales also but they are protected.
Sperm-whale colonies can be observed not so far from where I live, near a big island: Andøya.
