Warm, Warmer, Warmest....., a photo from Nordland, North

Photographer's Note

Lofoten | Vestv虍 | Stamsund

The weather is still great, if you look at WS1 you can see the temperature on the Lofoten at that moment... At least 4 ｰC more than at home in Tholen, the Netherlands. 2 ｰC more than in south of France, Anjou, where I grew up and where my family lives. Even Troms�, all in the north of Norway, very much northern than the Arctic Circle got lovely warm weather in the first week of June 2017.

Stamsund: This charming fishing village is located on the south side of the island of Vestv虍 in the Lofoten archipelago, along the Vestfjord. With a population of 1,000, Stamsund is an important fishing port and the largest base for Lofoten trawl fishing. Gradually, more and more tourists discover Lofoten, with its marvelous scenery, enhanced by the midnight sun in the summer and the northern lights in the winter. Lofoten痴 legendary seasonal fishery takes place from January to April, with bustling activity on land and sea.

Ha! Ha! Viviane, my respect for you is growing!
Not only can you straighten towers but you can raise the temperature in the northernmost regions, when you are on holiday!
This is a very beautiful scene. It reminds me of the lovely buttercup meadows that we used to have when I was a child. Of course, where I live, you wouldn't get snow-tipped mountains at the same time, but that's the special beauty evident in your photograph!

My best wishes,
Bev :-)

Salut Viviane,
Ces payasges de Norv鑒e sont splendides et encore plus lorsque le beau temps est au rendez-vous, bien cadr� avec cet avant-plan vert et lumineux, j'ai eu de la chance lors de notre visite des Lofoten il y a quelques ann馥s avec une semaine de temps pratiquement ensoleill�, c'騁ait un enchantement pour la d馗ouverte ...et les photos!

Hello Viviane,

This is a wonderful mountain picture.
But the wild yello flowers make your picture very colourfully.
An excellent panorama view about the area.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John

Dag Viviane,
De titel van je foto en de bijbehorende tekst doet mij denken aan de eerste keer dat wij Lapland binnenreden. Iedereen denkt altijd dat het daar ook zomer koud en somber is, maar niets is minder waar. Het was bijna 30ｰ C.
Mooie sfeervolle foto met het gele boterbloemenveld voor de bergen.
Groet Rob

Hi Viviane,
Quite a change from snowy landscape in the previous upload. Dandelions paint the field in yellow. All so charming. Background mountain makes a difference from Finnish landscape.

Hi Viviane
A fabulous coloured rural landscape in summer! So much detail with yellow field and the cotton cloud tend to draw the eye. A wonderful viewpoint and sharp from back to front and surely worth the capture. Very enchanting imagery so very well taken, Congrats
Best regards

Bonjour Viviane

Great cloud, great flowers and a fine backdrop of mountains and trees. That's a fine scene. I don't like the inclusion of the fence that much, it seems you could have avoided that, no? Nice summery picture, though.

Cheers

Benny

Hooi Viviane, Ik houd onze discourse even op gang ;-) wat een heerlijke Lofoten plaat. Het is daar prachtig, een nichtje met haar vriend zijn er onlangs geweest, en je hebt er hier een fijn grafisch geheel van gemaakt met de hoofdrol voor het geel-wit-blauw kleurenspel. Fijn werk, amicalement, Bert.
