Kan du holde av den solnedgangen til jeg kommer nedover i juni (Bon Jovi-konsert, Juhuuuuu)? Da får jeg problemer. Solnedgangen eller konserten;) Hahaha.

Sånne naturopplevelser gir ro i kropp og sinn. Vakre bilder ble det også. Og det bilde du hadde på forrige post med broene, det med tvillingbroene, likte jeg virkelig godt.

Snap Catch said...

nice one for SWF! I fell from the sky. I'm a parachutist, and I missed my mark. Mine's up too hope you can visit.

Unbelievable beauty in these pictures !

Also saw the pics of Drammen. And specially liked the one of the waterfront ..seems like the building stretches for an Eternity !

Andrea said...

Wow, the reflections in the water are beautiful and the sky is gorgeous. Great pictures.

Unknown said...

I don't know what to say. That is undescribable. Nature gives us such beauty if we just stop and look.

Travelling in Norway along your rivers is fantastic. Sunset and sun rise are "sublime", I remember my journey towards or from Lappland.

En stor ære synest jeg!
Ville bare fortelle det, om du ikke har sett det.
