Olden was the second stop on our trip through the Norwegian fjords. Arriving at Olden we were met by wonderfully eerie mists lying low over the town. We took a small boat along Lake Olden, arriving at a small restaurant to enjoy waffles and cream! We then were taken by coach to see the Kjenndalen Glacier, a magnificent sight. Next to the glacier was a waterfall, and dotted around the landscape were more waterfalls and streams no doubt fed by the glacier. We returned via a stunning lake which reminded me of Emerald Lake in the Yukon in Alaska. In the afternoon, we took a brief tour around another lake. As we left, a stunning double rainbow formed, the second one we saw in as many days. I used a mixture of Nikkors 18-200mm, 35mm F/2, and 50mm F/1.8, as well as the Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8. For some shots I bracketed three exposures as the contrast was a little harsh for the camera. These were later blended in Photomatix.

Some of your best work Alpha..beautiful images.... i cannot actually pick a favourite,and i normally do Lol.
AzmiJun 16, 2012 08:52 PM
Those are great images. What camera are you using?
Alpha Whiskey PhotographyJun 29, 2012 06:18 PM
Thank you Azmi. I'm using a camera that works!! Not trying to be evasive, but the best camera is the one you have with you, and has nothing to do with what kind of images you capture - that comes entirely from your eye :)
