Stavanger 2003 – 7

I just add a few images from the great final match. USA against Brazil, as many times before, but another Brazilian team this time, Ana Paula and Sandra Pires, and they ended up on the top podium! Misty May and Kerry Walsh from USA was beaten this time, but came second, and on third place another world top team, from Brazil, Shelda and Adriana Behar.
For me, this year was the last with film in my camera. So from now on, I don’t have to scan every single image, because I followed the crowd and got myself a digital camera. For a photographer, everything became so much easier.

I counted on finishing 2003 now, but still have so many images left, that there will have to be a no 7 also, from Stavanger 2003.

Stavanger 2003 – 11

Da har vi kommet fram til de siste bildene av norske utøvere dette året. Ikke uventet var Vegard Høidalen og Jørre Kjemperud det beste norske laget, og de endte på en respektabel 9. plass.

Iver Horrem og Bjørn Maaseide spilte sammen igjen. De hadde friplass i hovedrunden. Der fikk de tap for USA og Australia, men slo Nederland. Dermed ble det 17. plass.

Stavanger 2003 – 9

Ingen norske brødrepar har nådd så langt sammen som Espen og Kjell Arne Gøranson. Av utenlandske brødre som ble veldig gode, husker vi godt Martin og Paul Laciga fra Sveits, som nådde verdenstoppen sammen . Her er noen bilder av de førstnevnte, som i Stavanger dette året var med i hovedrunden og fikk en 25. plass.
