[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We took the old road from Laerdal to Aurland, which is also called the Snovegen. The road winds up a high plateau that is covered with snow throughout the entire year. Its a 48km long road with it highest point (1306 meters) close to this location. Nowadays there is a tunnel from Laerdal to Aurdal which has a length of 24,5Km (the longest tunnel in the world)

I am actually not sure if this is a cabin. It is hard to imagine that somebody would have a summer cabin in this type of environment. Its probably some science cabin to measure something. Anyway, I like its contrast with the rugged mountain, the sky and snow.

Hi Niek,
I remember these snowy plateau from my summer holidays. Amazing landscape, wonderful natural formations. I think i visited this place, too along the road. It looks quite familiar, good to see it on TL. Unfortunately, my photos from this region are not the best because of hard weather conditions.
This is a great capture indeed, well positioned red cottage.
TFS.
Friendly greetings,
Kristof

looks very crisp and cold the cabins add a touch of warmth. lovely image tfs

:-) Je vind hutjes op de gekste plaatsen in Noorwegen hoor... zeker op deze prachtige hoogvlakten...
Echt heerlijke plekken zijn dit! Geweldig om doorheen te rijden, maar vooral ook om uit te stappen en eens een wandeling te maken.
Je hebt het Noorse sfeertje weer prima gepakt, ook hier!

Hoi Niek,
Geweldig panorama met een nihilistisch onderwerp, de kleine rode hut! Perfect, zowel qua scherpte, contrast als compositie. Dit is weer ouderwets smullen bij Niels ehhhhh Niek! :-)

Love the wide angle on this shot Niek.
It's great how the cloud pattern, and snow pattern are similar.
You composed this scene very well.
Great color and sense of open space.
Well done.

My sort of landscape this Niek, love the amazing sky.

All the elements are there, you have foreground, midground and distance interest.

POV and exposure are spot on too.

Nice one.

Peter

Hi Niek, a lovely image. Very well composed following the thirds and good colour and light. It looks desolate and peaceful,

Any tips from the expert? Not really Niek, I sometimes wonder what I could do with a dSLR in those conditions. I let the camera do the work and hope that minimal PP will produce something.

Een heerlijke compositie, waarin je precies kunt zien waarom het zo heerlijk is om rond te reizen in Noorwegen.

Altijd fijn als er ook nog sneeuw ligt zoals hier.

Prachtig en genieten dus.

Werlcome Niek,
big mountains and a tiny cabin, it is good combination. Very picturesque landscape.
