I was looking for some shots of Norwegian gulls and came across your gallery. Nice variety of landscapes, birds and people. A pleasure to look at this gallery - every shot is excellent.

I'd like to purchase a few pictures of the sunset on Lyngvar Island and one or two of your eagle photos. My father's name was Konrad Lyngvar as well and Jean is my great aunt. Your gallery is beautiful. Karla Lyngvar

Great gallery! Most impressive is that the pictures of me don't totally suck like they usually do... ;-) I'm not at all jealous of your eagle-upside-down picture! In this gallery you don't only show your skill as a nature photographer, but as a travel pgotographer as well! Keep up the good work! I'll show you some of my pictures soon! Art Morris liked your pics of the Great Snipes! /Pontus
