  5. How delightful to visit and watch these magnificent view through your outstanding lenses John!

    i am amazed with your perfect way of capturing as photos of ships are interestingly in "fram"!

    Glorious sky you got for us !

    Remarkable colors and awesome images!

  6. And finally you find a postcard for this week, and a very interesting one.

  7. Beautiful photos!
    And I like the (in the primary colours) coloured ship from under the bridge. Which makes me wonder why colourful ships are so rare, most of them being grey, white, brownish/blue?!?

    Love the full moon and rainbow (not so much bow :-) ) pictures, amazing they are!

    The reflection postcard is so special, realizing the fact that it has been taken almost 80 years ago!

    Thank you for sharing all of these beauties!
