Can you see them? Glued all over the front of this little boutique shop in Bergen - Lost Soles, no mates - all different shoes up there!

Belugas at Bourbonhamma, Norway

Immediately upon landing at Burbonhamma in Belsund Sound (Svalbard, Norway) - a Lost Sole - a right, weathered rubber boot sole (no upper).


Bourbonhamma is the site of an old beluga whale processing plant. Bleached white skulls and bones (and a few wrecked boats) are the only items left there now.


Ny London, Svalbard Norway

Camp Mansfield at Ny London in Svalbard (Norway) is now rubble and ruins. Among the rust near an old stove, lies what is left of a Lost Sole - just the flat leather sole with barely visible stitching holes around its edges. Camp Mansfield was built decades ago to mine marble, then abandonded when the quality of the marble was so bad, it crumbled like limestone.
