Langs riksvei 34, a photo from Oppland, South

Photographer's Note

Langs riksvei 34

I don㦙 remember the exact place where this photo was taken, but it was likely along road 34, an hour or so north of Oslo, and the lake could be Randsfjorden. Anyway, I find the picture sort of representative of the southern Norwegian low-land agricultural landscape. Perhaps because of the combination of the lake and the typical red barn. It𠏋 August, the fields are ripe for harvest. Nice time of the year up there.

I think you have made a very good job of capturing this picturesque scene. The red barn is a real stand out and well positioned in the right third of the frame, but I also like the field of crops that fill the foreground.

Hi Claude,
very nice composition, very good colors and sharpness.
I like the contrast of the red barn and the yellow wheat field.

Hi Claude
Beautiful panorama of summer. Superb fields of corn with white flowers. Interestingly the red house, standing on the shore of the lake. Nice soft colors.

Hi Claude

A really nice one from my country. I agree, landscape like this one is representative for the sout-eastern part of our country. Very nice composition. The field makes a nice foreground against the eye-catching red barn. Colours and sharpness are both great. Well done! Thanks for sharing. Have a nice WE.

Best regards, Erling

Hello Claude,
I like your composition a lot -- it gives the viewer the feeling of walking through this wheatfield. Indeed it takes me back to my girlhood in England when I used to walk through the wheat on my grandfather's farm. Good sharpness and lovely natural colors. Well done.
Regards,
Mary

Oh so very, very, very, very Norge-looking photo! And it's Norway indeed, just how I like it. Great work - addition of the field in front make it so very special.

Bonjour Claude

une belle opposition chromatique entre le premier plan et le reste de l'image. Il en r廥ulte une superbe sensation de profondeur sans oublier tout ce bucolisme sousjacent.
