[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Looking at my resent series of architectural images from the older parts of Røros, I discover I haven’t yet included even a pictorial hint why the town was established in the first place… The copper mine!

To make things right I add this image to the series, showing that the mine actually is in the middle of the town only separated by a small river.

Lossius, Engzelius, Schanke... They are all well known family names in Røros today, but obviously not of Norwegian origin. The fact is that when mining started in 1644 this was done by help from German expertise, and Lorenz Lossius from Göttingen in Germany was one of the founders of the mining company.

------

Røros has been on the UN World Heritage List since 1980, and today the place is more or less a living museum. In 2006 the municipality of Røros had 5632 inhabitants, and most of them are living in or near the town centre (3).

Hi Pablo

Neighbours in the gallery today! I like the downward pov & subtle, warm vs cold colour contrast, between the red & orange facades of the wooden buildings, & the blue sky. Excellent sharpness, too. Tfs!

Hi Pablo,

Beautifull frame..
A colourfull street.
Excellent quality.

Hi Pablo,

Brings back memories of the time I visited Norway. Great shot of the typical nice architecture of your beautiful (albeit expensive) country. Perfect to see the houses with the mining industry also present in the picture. Great one!

Another excellent photo of those colorful and very picturesque old houses. The grey sky pleasantly contrasts with the vivid colors of the buildings. Nice scene.

Hi Pablo,
The row houses are beautifully framed with a hint and peek of the mountains on the f/g. I am certainly enjoying your photo documentation of Roros. Best regards, Danilo

The colors of the houses are so recognizable Pablo... It couldn't look more Norwegian to me.

As I recall RØros also has a lovely old church in the same red colors as the house you show here...

A very nice street view here Pablo. Good perspective and lovely colors!

Nice shot of architecture and colors, but you did not show much of street scene or mine.

Hello Pablo,

You have beautifully captured the patterns of architecutre in this view. Fine details and luminosity are the value added faetures of this fabulous image. An excellent shot my friend, well done.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

It would be terribly funny if inside floor in the one house was angled as the outside is...gee what an aerobics job it would be to live there..Super image guy!

Have you been inside a house? They look cozy and warm....

Hi Pablo,

This is a different view and I like this perspective, looking down the street like this.
Beautiful warm colours, good sharpness, composition and great to look at.

Thank you for commenting on my jumping dogs catching snow.
I had someone throwing snow balls and it toook me 30 minutes before I could catch my shot.

Nice work, good background history in the notes! Wonder what life is like with the open mine right in the middle of town? We have a mining community in the mountains, now defunct coalmine, but while it was operational, everything there was grey and black....

I remember, so many streets are up and down, hard work for elders, even it was voor me that time, haha
Sure from out of the houses men got good views outside.
Thanks for showing, Pablo.

Nice shot of that descending street and the series of houses. I love the mixture of old and new houses and the different colors. Very nice point of view and great DOF.

Hello Pablo,
So you are also quite popular here in TL :) I like the way you composed this one ... the angle of the shot and the road space in the right created a feeling of depth plus it also leads ones focus towards the mountains. Great POV and well captured. Image and color quality are also good. Excellent work! tfs

Hi Pablo,

I like to discover your country through your eyes, the streets and the houses are inspiring, may I suggest to post (on TE, that I frequent more, preferably) some interiors as well ? Of traditional or of modern houses, I feel very curious !

Thanks in advance and thank you for this beautiful and colourful photo,
