The international jazz festival in Haugesund, Norway
since i'm photographing a lot under the annual jazz-festival, in Norway known as "Sildajazzen" (in english: herringjazz', Haugesund was once the herring-capitol of Norway.. :P ), i found out that i could start a topic.. I'm sure some of you like the combination of Jazz an d boats.... 8) Starting whith day 1:

Day 2: The local artis Matti Roessland have a concert for the employees of Aibel, whith Gamle Salten and Sandnes (ex. Sjoekurs) in the background:

The inner harbour/quay from the Risoey bridge (not much space for the high speed craft to pass here.... :P ):

A little bonus, Sandnes (ex. Sjoekurs) :D :

Very cool, Arne! I am sure the jazz festival is a lot of fun! :D And, interesting to see pictures of Sandnes!

They look like Sardines( the boats)

Fabulous, Armag :D :D :D Found quite a few cams in Haugesund :D :D Scroll to the bottom of the link for more cams :D http://www.hec.no/htjustno.htm

My goodness :D :D :D click M/F Stavangerfjord for what looks like a ferry cam :D Not very fast on the update, though

The website owned by "havnedagene" (harbour days) that'll be arranged next weekend, have got all of the cam's from the harbour (except one) on they're website: www.havnedagene.no The last cam is owned by Jatec, situated at the narrowest point of the Smedasundet strait, pointing north towards the festival area:http://www.jatec.no/webcam.html

So, which cam will you wave to us from, Arne? :lol:

So, which cam will you wave to us from, Arne? :lol: I guess that if some of you looked at the cameras, you spotted me...... i've spent many hours on the bridge the last weekend's :P I've been a trip in the strait to, onboard the vessel Poseidon II, on the sail-in for "havnedagene" (harbour days). So if you looked on the cameras when the boat below sailed thru, you probably saw me on the top of the wheelhouse.....:
