[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Never have I spent so much time on side roads as I did this summer! Almost every Sunday I have been driving around with my camera ready…

I have seen places I’ve never seen before, and I have taken thousands of images!

The place in this image is something from times gone by… a summer farm. Farmers used to have a place in the mountains where they brought the cattle for the summer, this in order to make better use of the food for the animals.

Nowadays this doesn’t happen anymore, but some of the summer farms have been converted into week-end places… not this one though.

A different point of view posted as workshop…

i see what you mean now about a polariser...it has settled the sky very well and enriched the greens in the vegetation.
i have used one on slr's and to some extent probably overdid it and got disenheartened
this brings back the value of one though and i see how it has separated the tones of the background from the highlights in the timbers of the summer shed..in scotland they get called a houf..sort of corruption of the word house i guess..or a but and ben in the wilds being a two room hut
cheers

Hi Pablo,

An interesting point of view, light and colors. Texture of the wooden hut gathers main attention i.e. interesting. Variation of dark hue of wood is nice to look at.

Thanks for another addition on this site.

Hi Pablo,
What happiness these roads of the summer! I see that your landscapes in mountain look like mine a little. There, the air is very pure and vivifying. I like much this photo with this gable against the beautiful sky. The colors and textures of wood are natural. Very efficient sobriety of the composition. Bravo and thank you for sharing! Annie

Hi Pablo,

Nice wooden textures and contrast!! Great POV and tight crop! Good balanced lighting!!
The WS is great too, as it looks like a painting.
Love to have had such a place in the countryside. :)
Very well done!

Constantinos

pablo,
your ws photo has a different appeal to it, it could have been another post here in tl.
anyway, once again you make something great out of a simple subject or object through your pov and the dramatic use of color and light. great clarity in this shot.

Hi Pablo,
Another cool photo from Norway.
I like your pov,dof,colors,focus,note,sharpness and frame.TFS
Chris

Hi Pablo,
Two very beautiful photos. I just love the spend some time in one of those farms as a vacation. Excellent composition following the rules of thirds perfectly. Beautiful colors and details.
TFS,

Great composition. I love the colours and summer feeling. Our summer is at last returning so I can really enjoy the summer feeling again.

Hi Pablo,
I like this nice POV vit the position of the house and the contrast in colours and texture. Very well done.

Hi Pablo,
You certainly have taken many photos from your summer driving of Norway's countryside. All high quality images including this one. Texture on the house siding is very good as is the composition. Well done. Any D&S photos this summer? Best wishes.

Hallo Pablo,
sieht bald wie bei uns in der Bergen, ein wunderschönes Bild und die herrlichen Farben, und die Schärfe , man sieht die Rissen im Holz und die Astansätze Stellen super.
Es ist wunderschön und gefällt mir sehr.
Schöne Grüsse
Eva

Perfect symmetry, lovely composition, great DOF and detail. The exposure is very good and the colors vivid and natural. I hope you will keep up your explorations, so we can enjoy your lovely work.

It would be taken in Quebec that i would believe you.
It's comparable with some of our laurentian view for the vegetation as for the... I would say caban. But you say it's for animals feedings?
Interesting POV where the roof seems to imitate the trees... All pointing at the sky!

Hi Pablo...some of the better opportunities are found on the side roads. Lovely POV, delightful textures in the timber and the sky a dream. TFS,
David

Hi Pablo,

Very nice one. I love the colors and composition. Lovely POV. TFS.

Hi Pablo, what a nice tight comp on this cabin! I love cabins as you might have seen in my previous posts. And I didn't post them all yet :))

Great work, we see the texture in the wood, the blue sky is vivid, and the fir trees. All represents the wilederness in Norway, that is quite similar to ours.

Love the image in your ws too.

Superb! Yan :)

Hi Pablo!
Nice diagonals from the roof of this small shack. I suppose you had to run quickly away from the flies that usualy continue reproducing for decades.
Exc colors of sky and wood! Focus is perfect.

simply wonderful! and how lucky to be able to travel every sunday. Your sharing with us seems to have provoked some lovely adventures -- or is it the other way around?
I love the colours and textures of this old building, well-captured by an expert photographer and frozen in an eye-pleasing composition.

Hi Pablo,
it's again such a wonderful shot and a nice place you show us. I've been in North-Italy and Lake Garda last week. This place remembers me to the mountains there, you also can find such cottages there. Realy beautiful, thanks

Hello Pablo
My ancestors dug a vault to preserve potatoes and covered it like so!
Depiction here is top notch, compared to those old photographs I saw!
A cropping that features only the essence of subject.
Nice presentation.
