A glimpse of the Norse Mythology...


I've read some of Thomas posts and from there I became a bit curious on Norse Mythology based on his Raven pictures. So I am researching some about this subject. I like reading books/stories about mythology. And so here goes...

To learn more of the 18th century Icelandic manuscript...I quickly searched this on the web.
Huginn and Muninn, 2 ravens both perched on Odin's (god of war and death, and also god of poetry and wisdom) shoulders...always has something to whisper on Odin's (also Woden) ears. They were sent at dawn to gather informations then returned in the evening to roost on Odin's shoulders.

Learning new things is somehow an additional advantage from my blogging hobby. And this is really great!

To Thomas, I just love your photo blog...your photography is something different...it rocks!!!
