Photographer’s Note

Windows of an old house in the Norwegian Folk Museum in Oslo. The museum also has an open air department with 155 authentic buildings from different Norwegian regions, for exemple a Stave Church from the 13th century.

In the open air department, you also can find the old town where buildings and houses of Christiania (the old name of Oslo - don't mix it with Christiania in Copenhagen) are. This house is one of the houses of old Christiania.

About the photo: increased sharpnes, saturation, light constrasts and cropped. Quite some postprocessing, but the 21th was a very grey day, I first got some sunshine when I visited Vigeland's Park later on the day.

Very architectural, I like it! I visited that place too in 2003. I even talk to some architectural students who were there studying. Good composition and color.

Lovely composition Stef. I like the pale tones of the colours. This museum seems to be very interesting! (155 authentic buildings !!! very impressive). Very sharp and clean shot, with great details. Very well done!

A clear shot on this duo, sharp to the bladering paint and a nice color harmony.
Well done Stef.

Hi Stef,
Je kunt wel zien dat dit nog stamt uit de tijd dat de Noren nog geen olie hadden gevonden en nog te arm waren voor nieuwe verf.
Mooie foto en een goede uitsnede.
groet Rob

Hi Stef, A simple, detailed, and colorful picture. The age of the building can be seen clearly in your picture. Very nice contrast. Well done.

Stef,
Vilka underbara gamla fönsterluckor - dom t o m överlappar varandra på ett troligen lite oigenomtänkt sätt. Härlig matta färger - liknar färgen på min TL bild Twin Danger - som är än mer flagnad.

Stef,
Sorry I missed this one! I like the subject choice and the paint peeling adds some nice textures. Well done!

As you know, coming often at me (Thank you) I like these pictures (I hold it from G Pantoulas and Aznegrao).
This one is perfect and is a success. Perfect framing, perfect colors ansd contrasts.
A great work for this charming architecture.

I love window and door photos for some reason and this one is no exception Stef, The colors are lovely especially considering the low light you experienced. I love the crackled peeling paint and the lacey curtains. Super job!
