Ragnar Lodbrok: Invasion

One summer day, probably in 789, while "the innocent English people, spread through their plans, were enjoying themselves in tranquility and yoking their oxen to the plough", news was carried to the King's officer, the Reeve of Dorchester, that three ships had arrived on the coast. The Reeve "leapt on his horse and rode with a few men to the harbour, thinking they were merchants and not enemies. Giving his commands as one who had authority, he ordered them to be sent to the King's town; but they slew him on the spot and all who were with him." This was a foretaste of the murderous struggle which, with many changes of fortune, was to harry and devastate England for two hundred and fifty years. It was the beginning of the Viking Age.
-Winston S. Churchill, A History of the English speaking peoples, Volume 1: The Birth of Britain

Last month I was lucky enough to have a photoshoot with the awesome Jedi Ragnar, my all time favorite Ragnar Lodbrok cosplayer. The day consisted of asking Jedi Ragnar "hey, do you think you could climb that?" and him happily scaling cliffs for some of these awesome shots, along with getting soaked as we waded out into the ocean.
I'm really happy with these photos, hope you like them too.
