๐Ÿ“ธ A Norsk farm nestled in the Sognefjord - Balestrand, Norway - Original work

in photography โ€ขย  7 years agoย  (edited)

During one of my water taxi trips around the west coast of Norway, I shot this scene of Norwegian farmlands nestled in the heart of fjord territory. The red and white barn and small amount of flat land stuck out from the surrounding mountains and huge peaks, the camera can not quite capture how amazing it was to see. Fjords rising on all sides, the cool crisp air, a slight smell of ocean (as the fjord water is brackish and not that salty... I tasted it :P ).

This shot is a panorama of only 3 pictures, all shot with my Canon 5DmkII and 70-200mm at 200mm, f/6.3, 1/200 sec, ISO 125.

The small formatting of steemit does not do this picture justice, so be sure to right click and open the image in a new tab to see it larger!

The photography is seriously good. I love the feature panorama on my phone but the way you have captured it is simply too good.

Thank you :) Yeah its easy to use phone apps, but they never quite come out right, nor capture the beauty of a place, which is why I always bring my DSLR with me, and make sure I get the shot :)

Yeah it was an awesome journey even though it was a small taxi boat, the fjords were awesome. This was last july, so good call!

Hello @nords, I heard about your post from my best friend @cannavrocanva46. Apparently not wrong he talked about your post. Say you show the world to him. How happy he can always follow your post. Norway, I can only hear it. But you can show the beauty there. My ambition to go to steemit is just to see your post. Thanks for the post, I can travel around the world by looking at your posts as well. He also posted some places in his area, if you can give suggestions so he can take a good picture like that in your post.

Thank you :) I'll do my best and check him out. But the only thing that makes you good at something is practice ;) Take many pictures every day for months and months.
