The beautiful city of Bergen in Norway.

Tonight is Christmas Eve, I wanted to post something related to this date, but I have nothing. The closest photo to Christmas is this one of Bergen, the closet place to Santa’s land! :-)

MERRY CHRISTMAS to all!!,

Hello Jorge,

Hi Jorge,

Really beautiful picture, brithness is good and atmospher as well..

Thanks and MerryChristmas

Hello, Jorge -

Pretty good quality for a scan; in fact, at first I thought it was a postcard! I wish you'd been able to get more of the city on the right edge, is all.

Happy holidays,
Dan

Hi Jorge,
Seems you were lucky with sunshine in Bergen, normally it rains or heavy overcast. Like your view over the city and the harbour. Nice all those red rooftops. And despite the fact it's a more than 10 year old picture the quality is still very good..!!!
Wishing you and your wife pleasant days at Christmas with your little one, Henk

Hello Jorge,
Thank you so much for such a beautiful Christmas greeting postcard!
much appreciated!
Sincerely wishing you and family:-
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
many thanks
Tony

Jorge, to bad that you did all your travelling prior to the digital era. All your old shots shows clearly that you had a good eye for compositions already many years prior to your steep TE career, but the scanning just takes the edge of it. What a pity! So what will Santa do with global warming? When North Pole is just water?
Merry Xmas
Peter

Hi Jorge,
Lovely shot; I like the scene here; the whole city is surrounded by hills & blue water. TFS.

Hola Jorge,
I also visited Bergen years ago but it was cloudy, cold and gray...
A beautiful little city, a nice picture!
Feliz Navidad, FELIZ NATAL !
Um abraço,
Nivaldo

Hello Jorge,
You were lucky to catch Bergen on a sunny day!
This is a fine view from Fløyen, showing the city with fine details...
Good clarity in colours, subject is well framed!
Seasonal greetings from Norway,
Pablo -

A PEACEFUL AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!

Jorge,
The POV is perfect to catch the beautiful architecture of this village.
Natural colors are just beautiful, very nice one,

Impressive quality of 1995, very nice aerial view. Amazing film quality can last that many years. TFS

Jorge,
This is a nice shot from Mt. Floyen. The lighting and colors are fine especially for a scanned image. I have similar shots from the top of Mt. Floyen hope you like them. View #1 . View #2 .
TFS,
Asa

Very nice capture and a good looking scene. Looks like a nice plesant place to live.

Hello Jorge,
It looks like you posted an "Oldie but Goody" today also. Just because some our images are "old" doesn't mean that we can't share them. Very nice panoramic image of this beautiful city. Your map of countries visited is getting larger all the time. I wonder how soon it will be when you have covered the entire globe. Have a great New Year!
Stan

Ciao Jorge,

la scansione mi sembra molto buona .
complimenti
Giorgio

Hi Jorge!
A nice landscape composition with good realistic colors making a nice contrast to each other.
The frame looks good and matches to the composition very well!

Jonas

I could never imagine such clear skies in the rainiest city in the world, the image shows its age and some of the buildings look too brights, but it's successful for a 13 year old scan.

Hi Jorge,
Yes,wonderfull scenery of Bergen from Fluelen hill.I like so much this beautiful city.Your picture is very clear and eye-catching.TFS.
Best Wishes

Hola Jorge,

Parece una ciudad muy bonita. Realmente me gusta la manera que se construyen las ciudades en Europa. La falta de edificios altos les da un atractivo peculiar. El punto de vista es muy bueno pues nos permite ver la ciudad y su alrededores. Parece un lugar con bastante atractivo natural. Gracias Jorge.

Roberto

Hi Jorge,

nice shot, the high POV is very good for this landscape, interesting details

Very well done!

Gio

Hi Jorge,
I was looking through images from Hordaland and I found this one. I have a photo from this location too but I haven't scanned the negative yet. Yours look nice ... can't tell it's not digital. Very beautiful weather & colorful town. Have a good weekend. Regards. Latiff.
