Norway

by SailorRoar - last update: Apr 4, 2008

Winter wonderland

I'll start this gallery by showing you what Norway looks like in the winter. This picture is taken in my hometown Innfjorden during Christmas of 2005.

Innfjorden

I grew up in a county that calls itself the world best county for people that loved the nature. This picture of me is from the mountain where our familys cabin is. Taken in the autum of 2006, by my girlfriend.

Oslo

Oslo has been my home more or less since year 2000, with the exception of a year in Australia in 2003/2004. This image of the City Hall is taken on a photo course in the spring of 2005.

Trollstigen (The Troll ladder)

Just 5 minutes from where I grew up is Norways most popular tourist destination, Trollstigen. The road with 11 switchbacks climbs one of the steepest mountains around. Trollstigen is visited by 700.000 tourists despite beeing closed for most of the year, due to heavy snow. This picture is taken in the summer of 2006. PS: The road is a lot more impressive when you don't see it from above.

Stavanger

Stavanger is a nice city on the west coast of Norway, here is a picture from Stavangers most colorful street. It was taken in the spring of 2007.

Southern Norway

This picture is taken from the cabin by the sea, it is owned by my wifes parents. It was taken on New Years Eve of 2007.

Geiranger fjord

The UNESCO World Heritage site Geiranger fjord is just a couple of hours from where I grew up. This picture is from the summer of 2005 just a few weeks after UNISCO awarded it the World Heritage status.

Oslo

This is a nice little street on the east side of Oslo. It was something I took while practicing using my new digital SLR camera in the spring of 2005.
