So I decided to turn it into B&W, then add not only a few % red and yellow, but also a bit of green to get that timeless feeling you will have when standing in a place like this. This one was made with the help of my Konica Minolta. ISO 100 (I could have used a higher ISO), shutterspeed 1/125, F 10, focal length 30mm. Despite the technical imperfections I still thought this place would be worthy of sharing.

Author Thread   Wanda Registered: November 2008 Posts: 1,954 Tue November 25, 2008 10:31am You have captured the magnitude and awe with your use of the black and white, Els. Your ISO has given you some pretty spectacular detail. Composition is perfect, to give us that feeling of the mountains towering over us, and the lake at our feet. Wouldn’t this be a splendid place to live. I like the use of the adjustments to the colours to give it the pop. Personally I think this is wonderful. Well done. Els Registered: November 2008 Posts: 1,489 Tue November 25, 2008 10:35am Hi Wanda, Those Lofoten Island and especially the southernmost part where this picture was taken- are spectacular. One of those places you can dream about. If not for our children and grandchildren we probably would not have lived in the Netherlands anymore. Norway sure is a very good country as for it's friendly population, lack of air polution, good health care system and so on. I think Canadian people would feel right at home, because lots of it's landscape reminded me of BC. Thanks Wanda!
