Bad weather: Well in our village it arrived at 1 o clock this afternoon with lots and lots of rain and thunder. However this afternoon not far from where we live a long distance walk that takes 4 days "de Nijmeegse Vierdaagse" was having it's last day and normally bands are playing to cheer everyone up for the last difficult kilometers - but because of the thunder the bands could not play. Well, the mood still was great and I congratulate every one who walked that long distance (like my sister did a few years in a row).
.
This is Sorvagen, Lofoten/south, a little harbour.
In the old days there were hardly any roads on the Lofoten and transport by boat was the only means of transportation - so little harbours can be found everywhere.
As you can see by looking at the sky, it's 1 minute before it will start to rain.
.
Have a great weekend,
Els

Hello Els,
This is a very good frame, with build-in dynamics!
I think the point of view makes the difference, besides the upcoming bad weather reflects well...
Super sharp, attractive colours!
Greetings,

Hallo Els.
Ones I was in Bergen, Norway, It was rainey as from the day I arived.
Asked a young boy when the rain will stop.
He answered, I dont now, I'm only 10 years old. (old joke)
Nicely captured reflection of 'before the rain comes'.
Pity, de vierdaagse ended again not amused.
Groeten Jan

Goodmorning Els,

A lovely view of this little harbour, indeed a good reflection of the approaching rain (what a bummer!), maybe a little OE in the white parts, but further another great shot! Funny that boat is called 'Els' as well...hahaha...;-)
Have a good weekend, Bianca.

Hallo Els..

Heel mooi zoals je die donkere wolken in het water ziet. Mooie compositie ook.
Het slechte weer viel bij ons wel mee. Gewoon een stevig buitje.
groeten,
Joop!

hmm... the "vierdaagse kriebels" were in my blood last week! and boy was there in thought with all the people attending!
I have participated in the Vierdaagse 3 years ago.
We had a very rainy first day then and 3 very hot days... It was tough, very tough...
(during training for months I had no blisters at all... the first day of the marches I had 7!, while I wore the same hiking shoes during training....)
Can you imagine walking 40 km a day for 3 days with 7 blisters on your feet????

Anyways... that's all beside the point here.
This is yet another image of my beloved Norway.
It's exactly as I know it... just a great atmosphere in a harbour... a friendly view apart from the threatening sky refelced on the water...

:-) cheers!
Anneke

Hello my friend

This is a lovely image,we are all so dissapointed with the weather at the moment and yet it gives us th oppotunity for some lolvely shots too.I love the way you have caught the clouds contrasting with the blue sky in the water here.

TFS regards Helen

Hello Els

See that this making a great marathon...ahahhaha, but I see that it was worth this whole time, even with thunders and rain for coming, the pictures are wonderful, the places are beautiful, in this picture that enchants it is me the the marge to bottom color of a beautiful green and those light boats and loosened perennial in this beautiful water clear. it is a show!
Congratulations

Very nice colors and reflections in that mirror-like water!
Is the boat's name really Els or did you sign your name there?
Great composition.
