City of Kristiansand, Norway

Sorry I kept quiet for so long. I wish you all Merry Christmas, and a Happy and Healthy New Year.

Love and regards Roger

Roger, I am so pleased to be the first to say welcome back, I too have been busy with other things over the past year, but even so, I missed your talent for simplicity, nice to see you return. :) This is a lovely photo, I particularly like the spire and the darkening sky in the background. Christmas Greetings to you and yours from another Northern dweller,

Vicki ( Alberta, Canada)

Vicki, I'm so happy that one of my regular visitors picked up on this one. Thank you for your kind words. I will spend some time looking through the pictures my friends have posted the last year and get a bit updated, including yours of course. I will start posting a few more pictures on Panoramio during this week. It's good to be back, and very nice to hear from you. I wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas :)

Hello Roger, a greeting and a wish, you're good you and your loved ones, hello , Fabio

Hi Fabio,

Thank you very much, and the same wishes for you and your loved ones too.

Cheers, Roger

A very nice night shot, Roger with great colours. Best wishes, Isabel November contest

Thank you Isabel :) It was a picture hard to get. I just had an evening walk and just grab the camera on my way out the door. I didn't bring my tripod or monopod since I went out while it was daylight. So, the picture is taken using a really old 50mm at f/1.4, high ISO (400 or 800) and Anti Shake engaged. Unfortunately there were no tree or anything else to lean up against or support the camera so I had to take quite a few before I got one that was not blurred by my hands shaking :) The picture is cropped a bit and had a little sharpening.

Cheers :) Roger

Beautiful night shot and view in colours and composition, Roger!

Greetings, May

Very beautiful photo, Roger. The extra work you did to get this shot certainly had excellent results.

Greetings, Marilyn

This is a superb night shot, Roger, especially since you took it without a tripod! Very well done! YS! Greetings, Anne

Hi Roger ! Fabio
