Bienvenu sur TE Svein,
Très jolie composition qui donne envie de visiter ton beau pays. Ces chutes ont l'air puissantes et ta photo le fait bien transparaitre.
Compliments.
Daniel.

Hello Svein, your country is so beautiful. This is a very nice waterfall. In order to add some better or more interesting look, try to use a much longer exposure, like 1/5 sec or more. The falling water will motion blure and this effect makes the waterfalls much more appealing. Looking forward to your new pictures, Cheers, Michael

Well. Norway is full of waterfalls. And this one is definitely beautiful. The other photo from this place is a bit different.
I think I prefer this one since the water (as there is more of it in the pond below) looks very nice.
Speaking about the longer exposure - the effect varies. When I can - I try to take more than one photo: one at short shutter speed one at longer etc. The blurred effect looks...dreamy and nice, but sometimes - especially in the case of waterfall where you see the lower lake/pond whatever (as here) fast shutter makes this lake to look very clear and nice (you get the small waves and swirls visible). With longer shutter you will get the lake to look more ...unreal. But still beautiful.
