Bergen evening, Norway - a photo on Flickriver

            A well known view of Bergen, looking accross the harbour to the famous 'Bryggen' area. The block of 11 houses to the right date back to 1702 and are on UNESCO'S World Heritage List. It is a perhaps Bergen's most picturesque view, but one that will be difficult to photograph the coming years. There is a major restoration project going on and houses are being covered in scaffolding during the process. Sinking ground water levels are affecting the foundations of the houses and need to be repaired. This will all be done with hand tools, as dictated by UNESCO. Hence it will be a multi year project. When I shot this, the small red and yellow houses (3 and 4 from the left), were already covered. I chose to leave a little of the cloth visible, but used an older photo for the top part. I am glad I had the photographic material to do that.
