Artist's Comments

Hi all!

Just got back from a three day trip into the Jotunheimen National Park here in Norway. Jotunheimen is Norways largest mountainous region (3500 square km). It contains the tallest peaks in Northern Europe with Galdhø;piggen (2469m) being the tallest. A fantastic hiking area no doubt.

This summer's weather has been very varying. This particular shot was taken during the best night with fantastic afterglow and sporadic rain showers. The mountains in the distance are enclosed in just one of those rain showers.

Finally, it was great being out photographing again. Having the time for it was just awesome. I love vacations :)

Anyways, this is the first on in the series, with hopefully at least 4 more coming soon.

Thanks for looking!

- Anders

Hello Anders! First of all, it's really good to see new work from you! Welcome back.

Really dynamic image. The colors in the sky really make this photo. So does the warm light on the rocks and water.

Looking forward to seeing more!

I almost never set out to photograph a landscape, nor do I think of my camera as a means of recording a mountain or an animal unless I absolutely need a 'record shot'. My first thought is always of light. -Galen Rowell

Thank you. You should consider coming in the autumn season. September/early october. The mountains are fantastic at that time of year.

Great to hear you enjoyed your vacation and had time for photography.

I'm doing my practical training here in Northern Norway, Varangerfjorden right now.
Staying here has made me wanting to travel around Norway more :)
