Zuiderdam in Bergen; Aerial View Photos

Today Zuiderdam called into Bergen, Norway. I took a series of photos as she arrived this morning, and then some dramatic views as she sailed underneath the Askøy suspension bridge on her way out of town this afternoon. The full set is now up on my hobby blog of ships in the city:

I hope these are of interest to some of you here :)

Very nice! I love that straight-on shot of the bow.

Got some great shots here, thanks.

Nice photos.

Thanks all for the kind comments :) I'm hoping to get up on the bridge more over the summer season. If I snap any more Holland America ships I'll be sure to post back here :)

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing these photos! We have our first HAL cruise next year, on the Zuiderdam, so I really enjoyed seeing them.

Great pics .. thanks for sharing

Nice shots! Thanks for sharing.

Zuiderdam was in town again yesterday, and the sun was out (after a few weeks of distinctly non-summery weather in Bergen)!

I took the following photos. A full set showing her departure is up now on my hobby blog:

Thanks for posting. We were on the Zuiderdam the day you took the pictures as we arrived in Bergen on May 22nd for the day. :D

Bergen is such a lovely city - thanks for sharing the pictures - we were on the ship that day too - with our friends Shrimpboat123 and Skipper's mom!

Thank you for sharing your super photos.

That's so cool that you were on board! Did you manage to spot yourselves in the pictures?

And thanks everyone for the kind comments...I'm glad the photos are being enjoyed :)

If you had perhaps taken a picture of the Aft of the Ship, we might have been out on the aft corner balcony on deck 5. :)

Unfortunately the suspension bridge only has a walkway along one side...it would be a bit hair-raising to cross over and stand right on the 70 km/h carriageway to try to snap the ships from the other side ;p

I did catch a couple of 'aft' shots during her morning arrival, if they're of any use :)

Thank you for sharing the pictures, we are taking the July 5, 2019 Norway Iceland cruise and really looking forward to visiting Bergen.
