Imaginative costume play
There was a long queue to get in when the doors opened to the Torucon fair in Trondheim Spektrum on Saturday morning.
The fair takes place over two days and is a popular event for young people who like to make costumes and effects and dress up as their favorite characters from computer games, comics and movies.
The phenomenon is called cosplay, and the best and most complete costumes win prizes and an opportunity to be named Nordic champion in Linköping, Sweden, next year.
