Thank you, it is a lovely place… no camera or composition skill required. Just keep clicking and it will look great.

Amazing pics @neph93 again beautiful scandinavian scenery. Wish you a lovely holiday out there with the family.

It looks amazing @neph93. I don't see fencing for the animals, do they simply roam free? are there predatorial animals to worry about up there?

Nope… no fencing. These pastures have been used for summer grazing for years. More recently they have been developed with holiday homes for locals and visitors, and a ski lift has been installed on the slipes for winter fun. However sheep and cattle are still allowed to roam free.

As for predators, there are bears in the borderlands with Sweden, some wolves in the south east of the country, lynx and wolverines in the north. Nothing much to worry about here though.

Absolutely beautiful shots @neph93 . Also really liked the red cabin.

[RoxRocks86]

Lovely shots @neph93 . Is this the same family cabin you and your clan frequent?

No, this is about 15 hours drive south and west from where we live. Near the town of Ålesund, and in the mountains above the village that Ingrid’s Mum comes from.

It is pretty amazing and quite unlike anything else up here. More of a house and the style is common in Bergen which is a way from where we are. I need to try and find out more about it.

Beautiful area @neph93 …doesn’t help me forget my still unsuccessful plans for a motorcycle trip in your area. Guess I’ll shoot for next summer. I’ll enjoy it through your pics in the meantime!

Yesterday the big boys arrived and promptly went horsing around in the water. Today we went to a climbing park… great fun. And this evening there was more cattle….
