Your pictures are like the Rolls Royce of photography..., certainly something to stretch for!
I would very much like to take pictures your way, specially the night shots, and as someone told me one day, I should set myself very high goals in what I do. Then I would reach farther than if I just set mediocre goals.
Anyway, I'm inspired by your images Tom, thanks!!!

[Tom McNikon]

Thanks a lot
Had some time for more today with a little stroll around the Laksevåg area

such a high standard of photography, photos lovely. Afraid i dont match that with mine, but i like my little Fuji Finepix on Auto. suits my mature brain, although i may try a few different settings in future. lol

but i like my little Fuji Finepix on Auto.

All my pictures in here since I joyned in 2006 (?) up until one year ago, was taken by a Fuji Finepix on Auto, so I belive your comment there is quite ok

First the Fujifilm Finepix S3000 and then upgraded to S5000

Your imagery is still astounding, and so inspiring for someone who lives in a fjord where these BIG ships seldom come to visit.
