I Like how the forground stuff kinda frames the picture. Anyway great picture, thx for sharing it man

That's breathtaking! I'd make it my wallpaper if I lived by myself. But my parents or brother would think I'm a f@g for making it that- if the wallpaper's not a black background...or something blue ;P

Asmoday · May 14, 2005, 09:02 PM

Yeah, it really is a nice pic...i'll be sure to passing on your kind words to the photographer.

LuCifer · May 14, 2005, 09:34 PM

Hmm, you must have misseed that..

Norway has many regions BMX, some are populated and many are not, and you can define them by types of land and weather as well, my family comes from North of Stavanger Fiord.
Ole Torstenson Fallang b.Jan. 29, 1862 at Nedre Fallang farm, Hadeland Norway immigrated to U.S. and ended up in South Dakota where he married Pauline Iversdotter Mogar Jan. 1, 1891. Their son Joseph Gustav
Fallang was b.Aug. 30, 1895 and he married Violet Marie Calhoun Nov. 8, 1916. Ole's father was Torsten Oleson of Lynn/Fallang b.Feb. 14, 1810 who married first Kari of Lynn in 1839 and second Margrethe Pedersdotter Melbostad in 1860.He died April 27, 1896 at Nedre Fallang farm. The old Fallang farm is near two lakes in Nedre, I believe they were called two foal lakes or Fallang, our origins are interesting and very diverse in terms of Swedish and Norwegian and German influences on my Father side, so I like pictures of Norway. Other Fallangs still live in Norway in Oslo, and we regularly correspond with each other around holidays since most are still good Lutherns. If you ever find the time, take a cruise North of Norway and see sea faring Norwegians, or head east and find the timber and mining towns, Norway is gorgeous. I am sure your family history is just as interesting and worth a picture or story to boot, I enjoy the Scandanavian countries, even Finland, but then......we cannot deny our roots can we.

BWX · May 15, 2005, 05:03 AM

Oh, you wondered where in Norway? LOL
edit- I just re-read you post- did you change it? Maybe I just didn't read it all the first time...

Falstaff · May 15, 2005, 01:27 PM

so kay, I was trying to clear this up a bit too, as most of my work is in America and enjoy anything from Europe, England, Ireland or Scandanavian countries, they provide me with a great deal of contentment
