The flip side of the cloudfest pictures were the times when the sun did actually shine on Norwegian waters. This was often early evening or early morning, though a couple of good days too.
1 - The Eidfjord, on probably the most relaxing, glorious day of the holiday.
2 - bergen, viewed from our hotel window which quite literally had the water lapping around underneath us. The ferry thats getting ready to rumble is not only used by tourists bt by communters from up and down the coast. This was taken about 4.30pm, 'rush hour' in Norway [as much as it has one]
3 - Fagernes, about 8am, the day got distinctly murkier after this promising start
4 - Eidfjord again from same spot but looking the opposite way, early the following morning after the previous shot
5 - IIRC this was on top of the Hardangervidda, a national park that is basically a huge plateau. It had been closed the week before with people stranded in their cars, due to snowfall. We stopped at this spot to eat our boiled eggs and salami rolls filched from the breakfast buffet
6 - Vradal, our last stop before Stavanger and the ferry home. Again it had been a damp day but as the sunset, the clouds cleared and all became very peaceful. I think some nice wooden rowing boats would have been more tasteful, but beggars cant be choosers and plastic paddle boats I had to make do with
7 - Yep, you guessed it, the sun shone brightly and warmly ALL day on our last day. Part of the Port of Stavanger viewed from the ferry after boarding.
oh, for information:
1 - Levels adjusted
2 - HDR
3 - as shot
4 - as shot
5 - HDR
6 - as shot
7 - levels/saturation adjusted
all have had small amounts of sharpening.
