Hi dear TE friends,

my second post from Norway is about Geiranger Fjord,
I've taken it during a 2 hours long ferry cruise, the falls that you can see on the right is called "7 sisters" ...so the title...

hope you like it.

About the place:
Geiranger is a small tourist town in the western part of Norway in the region called Sunnmøre in the municipality of Stranda. It lies at the head of the Geirangerfjord, which is a branch of the Storfjord. The nearest city is Ålesund. Geiranger is home to some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, and has been named the best travel destination in Scandinavia by Lonely Planet. Since 2005, the Geirangerfjord has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Siamo vicini oggi, e stavo per postare una foto proprio di questo luogo, ma poi ho cambiato idea.
Il luogio e' fantastico, e la foto rende perfettamente l'imponenza e la suggestione di questo fiordo.
Seguiro' la tua serie norvegese. Vedo che sei tornato da poco. Anche io ero stato in giugno-luglio, l'anno scorso.
Ciao Stefano

Superb ...the waterfalls there are wonderful
Easy to fall in love with this place
Seems so wild and so beautiful,only the boat makes us to understand that there are people too :)
Thanks for posting
hugs

Hello Fabio,
Beautiful composition with the fjord having less light to adding a lot to the atmosphere.The ferry cruise is a nice point to the frame and gives much more interesting.Excellent work!
Greetings,
Thomas

Ciao Fabio,

I was right your second post is great.
ONly a snaps, hihihi - you would cheat us!

The falls are great and i like the calm atmosphere. The wawes and the dancing lights made it more unique - you captured it nicely!

Fabio,

This photo is great. I like Norway/the fjords very much... sadly I only got into photography after my last trip there. I need to go back so I to can capture wonderful images like this.

I like the composition with the cliff, penetrating the final third on the right hand side with the movement of the water captured in the waterfall, contrasted to the curves of the ripples on the fjord fro the little boat disappearing into the distance.

Thanks for sharing,

Richard.

Seems as if I am watching a movie. Superb Composition. The mysty atmoshpere in the background adds dimesnions to your shot.
Well Done fabio.

Wow Fabio,
what a great image. The place is obviously spectacular. Love all these nuances of blue, and the water falling down the rocks is just awesome...it relaxes me and thrills me at the same time!
its not with the magnificent D50, but its still excellent ;))

lots of regards
Marija

Ciao Fabio, This scenery certainly looks spectacular & magnificently captured in good natural colour & fine detail. A wilderness with a calm & soothing atmosphere.
Well done

Hi Fabio,
Another stunning shot from Norway. You have a great eye my friend, because you post in slow pass, but when you post it's well thought and absolute not just a simple snapshot. Strong lines in the water, the boat, the waterfall on the right, it all fits perfectly....like it a lot.

hi fabio;
It's a truly captivating post.I think the composition has gained a lot from not showing any sky and i like that special light that baths the fjord.

ciao

Ciao Fabio,
uno scenario spettacolare, con questo leggero effe flou che crea una atmosfera davvero bella.

ciao Triestino,

posso stramaledirti??? ma veramente???
la norvegia é uno dei miei sogni...e chissà...un giorno ci andrò!

ottima profondità e dinamismo dato dalle cascate e dalla scia delle navi.

posso mostrarti una foto simile dal messico?

saluti
Silvio

Ciao Fabio, scommetto che ti emozioni anche te a rivedere queste foto vero...
Davvero interessante come hai gestito questa non facile situazione di luce ... (so già che a me sarebbe venuta fuori sovraesposta) la composizione con la prospettiva data dalla scia dell'imbarcazione, e il primo piano sulla cascata sono da mauale di fotografia...
Buon giornata
Ale

Beautiful shot Fabio, so well composed when possibilities must have been limited from on a boat. I love how the wake of the boat in front acts as leaad-in and the patch of light on the green of the mountain on the right. Those 7 sisters on the right are almost secondary. good work
Kath

Ciao Fabio,
The fjord and the waterfall are very impressive...
The boat is a bonus :)
Complimenti,
Zeynep

Ciao Fabio!
una foto molto "liquida", rendi proprio l'idea di tanta acqua dappertutto.
Bellissima immagine! E buon POV. Tante sfumature dei colori dell'acqua.
Non ricordo foto più belle di questa fatte in questo celebre fiordo. Io stessa ricordo il mio imbarazzo per non saper rendere la bellezza del sito complessivamente, mentre questo dettaglio esprime già tutto.
Ciao!

Livia

Bello scorcio che, data la picolezza della nave, da le dimensioni del fiordo. Aprezzo ancora di più questa foto essendoci stato anch'io...
Semplice ed essenziale: una caratteristica dell Norvegia.
Ciao,
Donato

Hi Fabio

wonderful mood and atmosphere to this shot, nice composition. Like it a lot!

Regards
Derek

Ciao Fabio
Excellent mysty atmosphere and composition.Wonderful colours and boat.Well done.
Best regards.
kAdİr.

Un fiordo davvero bello, ho visto anche le altre foto, la barca che va via disegnando con la scia un elegante arco è la presenza giusta per esaltare le piccole cascate, bravo Fabio, complimenti.
Ciao

ciao Fabio
great shot, you captured a nice view with the waterfall in the FG, good depth, sharpness and light. It's not that easy in such an open space.
Good texture in the water .
very nice job
Buona giornata
chris

Hello Fabio,

An elegant composition with this view of the dramatic nature!
The simplicity of composition attracts attention to the scenery and I notice the boat ahead making a curve on the fjord...
Well framed with super colours and a fine feeling of depth!

Greetings,
Pablo -

i thought you said you couldnt take good shots because of running after your doughter... well, your last two shots are just superb fabio... i can hardly wait for my son to grow up a bit more so that i will run after him and take good shots as cool as yours >:P... cheers man...

Ciao FAbio,
Un luogo estremamente affascinate, sei riuscito a coglierlo nel migliore dei modi, bravo.
ciao
andrea

Bonsoir Fabio
très belle photo. L'ambiance est superbe et les couleurs me plaisent beaucoup. J'aime beaucoup l'équilibre du cadrage avec la falaise sur la droite. Bravo.
Xavier

Proooooooooooooooooooooonto Fabio!

The detail of the ship is the best. Great! A nice way to show us the size of the fjord.

Rgs, Oscar

Da sogno, Fabio, paesaggio incantato, magnifiche cascate, splendida natura ripresa alla grande, bravo, ciao Silvio

Ciao Fabio,
Beautiful image! water streams falling down, a curved furrow, this is a marvelous work depicted The still and motion with a wonderful composition.
Have a nice summer time, Hisashi

excellent photo, Fabio, I like a lot the cool colours, I find they convey very well the mood of Nordic countries. the gently curved line of the water is just in the right place in the frame to link the waterfalls and the movement of the boat. very, very nice, my compliments.

Hi Fabio, A wonderful ambiance flows from this remarkable fjord. The cliffs are so very steep. The colours and atmosphere are good. The boat adds movement and interest. TFS. Murray.

Ciao fabio

This reminds me of Milford Sound in New Zealand. Wonderful repetition of the waterfalls. Tfs!

Hi Fabio - an impressive and dramatic landscape - with the boat just a tiny dot in the scheme of the ocean. I love the waterfall - its beautiful.


Dave

Rieccoti Fabio.
Ogni tanto ci fai un regalo. L'acqua del fiordo, appena animata dalla corrente che vi si insinua, è segnata dalla scia del traghetto. Il controluce perfettamente controllato e la prospettiva che esalta i rilievi precipiti esaltano la maestà di questo scenario nordico.
Ciao.
Bobo.

Ciao Fabio,
perfetta composizione che da' l'idea della grandiosità del luogo. Bellissima la scia della barca...
Un sorriso

Bonsoir,
belle photo de ce fjord superbe, encaissé entre ces paroits hautes et impressionnantes.
Jolies couleurs et bonne netteté de cet endroit avec ces chutes sur la droite.
Ce bateau qui s' éloigne donne une idée de la hauteur des montagnes de ce fjord.

Amitiés Thomas

Ciao Fabio
Amazing view of the 7 sisters of the Fjord. Wonderful waterfalls. I also like the The mysty atmoshpere.
TFS and have a nice week
Aires

Excellent atmosphere, a place worth to visit! The heavenly waterfalls and the boat emphasize a dynamism and you composed it well. Brilliant!

Ciao Fabio.The photo gives a strong impression of an adventure, a journey. Probably because of the feeling of movement you captured- a sense that we are following the boat in its wake.AND there is suspense- what is waiting around the bend! Excellent composition and lovely colours.Ottimo lavoro.Ciao. Klaudio.

Ciao Fabio
So blue, so mysterious, so amazing! That slice of green stands out & yes the falls on the right. Love the ripples on the water & the tiny ship which also helps in scale. Quite stunning!
Regards
Angshu

Hi Fabio. Wonderful capture. Good POV and composition. The boat is a great inclusion to give scale. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good Sunday, Paul.

Fabio,
Brilliant, classy shot. I love your approach here; putting the falls right off to the far right of frame - it says, these falls are big, maybe even huge, but look, compared to the environment they are in!! This is also true for the boat.
In short, very well composed shot.
Regards
Colin
