Bergen Summer Blues
Bergen from Floyen mountain
by Adelheid Smitt

A clear evening view over the lovely Norwegian city of Bergen. This requires a bit of luck as Bergen has the reputation of being the rainiest city in Europe.

A perfect reflection in Lake Oppstryn with clouds that look like they are fanning out from the top of the mountain. Just after taking this picture a very mild breeze picked up and immediately destroyed the reflection.

Another view from my hotel window. This is from the beautiful Alexandra Hotel in Loen, right by the Nordfjord.

Bergen view
Bergen
by Adelheid Smitt

A short while ago I posted the 'famous' view of Bergen, the Hanseatic Quay. This was taken from the same spot, but looking a little further to the right. Here we look towards the fish market and the funicular up to Mount Fløyen.

Morning in Hjelle, Norway
Morning in Hjelle, Norway

This is one of those classic Norwegian views that I really wanted to photograph. Finally, this Summer I had a chance to go there. The reflections weren't quite as perfect as I would have liked, so I might be returning there some time for another go.

Calm waters of Jølstra, Norway
Jølstra, Norway
by Adelheid Smitt

It has been way too long since I posted anything of my favourite country. This was taken almost exactly 3 years ago when Jølstravatn was the calmest I have ever seen it. I still hope I can redo this shot at some point with nicer clouds and weather.

Fjordside farm, Norway
Fjordside farm, Norway
by Adelheid Smitt

This farm, near Odda, looks like it sits on a small island on the South end of Sandvin Lake. It isn't actually an island but you need a bridge to get there. The light was just right when I passed this spot late afternoon on the way to Låtefoss.
