Hurtigruten, also known as the Norwegian coastal express, has more than 100 years of service between Bergen and Kirkenes along the west coast of Norway. The route is recognised as one of Europe's biggest attractions and has been internationally acknowledged as the "world's most beautiful sea voyage". The fleet consists of 11 ships, here represented by the vessel "Kong Harald", seen docking at Molde harbour. Both northbound and southbound ships dock at my hometown during daylight, which makes it very convenient for photographing them. You can read more at www.hurtigruten.no. Sharpened in PS. Ideally I should have been a few steps further away from the ship, but I could not haven taken any more steps without falling into the sea...
