    The most distinct image is of smoke curling its way up, as if one could touch it.

    It’s not quite like the bars of today. At least not if you compare to Norway
    We had, however, some logging camps back in the 30′ies . . .
    This brings back memories!

    love the light and swirling smoke in blue! i love most of your shots which keep coming to my inbox. today i had to had to comment on this one because of the title! my nick name is ‘Kallu’ (and i was called either Kalyani Black Label or Johny Walker in school because of the surname) and ‘toddy’ is something quite dear to most males at my native place – Malvan..so all i could do is giggle when i saw this pic right now. glad to know there’s a liquor shop called kallu!
