Inside the Heddal Stave church

The Heddal Stave church (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/30679417426/) is one of the biggest stav churches in Norway, and dates back from the 13th century. It has been restorated several times, and not always in the correct manner. But this sanctuary part is IMO quite nice, and in a way gives you the feeling stepping back in time! It was the first time I had to use an ISO setting of 2500. Normally I would never do that, because it is not the strongest point of Sony camera's. But I had no choice, it was almost dark inside and I didn't bring my tripod with me.

 

With some help of Lightroom and different denoise filters I was able to come up with this. It could have been worse.

 

 

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...).
