This photo was shot on back in the beginning of March this year and I actually miss the winter a little bit.
I don’t miss the cold, but miss the light that is very special in winter. Now it’s daylight 24 hours a day and that is not so exciting photography wise.
Each season has good sides 🙂

You can see Venus shining over the boatshed and fjord making the scenery even nicer.

I’m a big fan of the old boatsheds! They have such great texture and colors and tell stories about old times.
Notice the planks in the foreground that are used to get fishing boats out on the ocean without much hassle.

In the back you can see some beautiful mountains called Stakken and Snøtinden.
