Banks of the Nidelven
I fled to Trondheim because of the weather predictions, and although it was not that bad, I spend two days strolling around in dull grey weather. BTW Trondheim is a nice city with an old center, and very nice places to discover. At the end of a long day (the 7th) I went back to my campsite, a little disappointed, and when I had dinner suddenly the sky opened! I realized I had to go back because the spot in this picture should look great with the sun out. The clouds here are a bonus.
Although I was very eager to see them ASAP, I decided back home in Holland not to speed towards the coast on my first day because weather predictions weren't good for a while. So I took the detour of which you have seen a few shots already. Trondheim fjord is not the classic fjord shot, but this is a rather nice view, and I was lucky the sky opened a little bit before closing again. It's Norway.
Norway, a stunningly beautiful country. Around every corner a chance for a scenic image, forcing me from time to time to stop every kilometer to get out of my car, sometimes with screeching brakes, and sometimes forcing me to curse because there was no place to stop.
Lovely valleys, bare mountains and cold winds, snow packs, glaciers, beautiful lakes, and then there are the enchanting fjords that never stop to amaze. The most beautiful country of Europe, for me no doubt about that, with only one minor aspect, which is the weather. During my month of traveling I only had 4 really nice days, the rest of the time clouds, rain, and very changeable! Still no regret, and I will go back to make even more than the 3500 pictures that I took this time.
Another very active vacation that took me to the south west up to Trondheim in a sort of triangle between Oslo- trondheim and Bergen with the whole route visible here (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153668247101759&set...).
