Photo of Norwegian winter landscape in January
Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera on January 30th 2007. Click image for larger view.

This was shot back in January when I had just got my DSLR camera and had no idea about what I was doing. I quite like the “postcard” feeling to it.

This house is placed directly below a mountain called Å-tinden. You can see the mountain here. You can not be afraid of avalanches and live there!

Aperture: f/4.1
Focal Length: 92 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Lens: Olympus Zuiko Digital 40-150mm F3.5-4.5
Location: Ånstad, Andørja (Ibestad) in northern Norway

      Your pictures are amazing! I am just in awe of them. I have always had a passion for photography. I try to take as many pictures as I can on different ranches but am in need of a camera upgrade. I always say “one of these days” but that day hasn’t come yet.

      That looks like an awesome place to live and an awesome shot also! Grand sense of scale in this one!

      Ja, jeg skjønner godt at du har en populær side, veldig gode bilder. Jeg hadde aldri våget å bo i det huset gitt.
