Hi Folks,
We have just returned from Norway, went as far north as Alta which is about 190 miles inside the Arctic circle, lots of wildlife etc.
sorting through a few hundred images, here are three of them.

WOW Bert, you have got some cracking images there, I particularly like the Aurora one, it really did make me go W-O-W.....! It makes me want to go there myself. Did you get any polar bears though - I know you were after those in particular.

Sounds like you have a brrrrrrrrrilliant time.

See you soon.

Thanks for sharing Bert, I particularly like the wolf and lynx and the northern lights are pretty amazing too

Thanks for posting your amazing images Bert. You really know how to handle the lighting.. Not the first to say it..."The aurora, just takes you in its grasp"

Bert, I can't say any more than has been posted here and you already know.
You got three WOWs from my wife as well, one for each and all I got is questioned as to why my photos don't look like that.

Although I get her point, because the wildlife and astrological experiences you get in Westhoughton should outweigh anything you'd see in Norway.

Cracking photos, glad you are still enjoying your trip.

Hi Folks,
Thanks for all your kind comments regarding my images fom Norway, Tracey, no luck regarding the Polar Bears, the trip to Svalbard was called off as there was gale force 9 winds and 30 ft waves, I got some shots of Brown Bears, Arctic Foxes, Lynx, Hares, Moose,Wolves etc and the Aurora Borealis
I will be puting some images on Ephotozine when I have sorted through them,
Thanks again to everyone who took the time to look at and comment on the images.
Regards,
Bert.
