    Great landscapes. Having no hills to look down on our landscapes, shots like these are a bit tough to take here in Florida! ;)

    I almost thought that the first picture was two - where the water and the sky separate it's such a different texture. Very cool shot. I also like the bottom shot. See, I'd call that one cloud in the top right a "funnel cloud" but Dew would say differently. Happy SWF.

    Uendelig vakkert hos dere. Og det fikk jeg jo se med egne øyne da jeg kjørte MC der oppe i sommer. Vær sikker, jeg tar en ny tur neste år om ikke annet.

    Hi Ivar! I love the photos as usual, your photos are great. Shinning as I may say to describe those crystal waters.

    When I was a child, being raised as a geography geek, Whenever I here about Norway, first thing of course that comes to my mind is Oslo, then Fjords. i always associate Norway with fjords even if I haven't seen it yet in pictures. But when I saw photos on the web and these photos of yours, I have seen why Norway is very famous for it. it is very beautiful!

    have a great weekend and God Bless yoU!
