Ancient church, a photo from Oppland, South

Photographer's Note

Borgund stave church: built around 1180 and is dedicated to the Apostle Andrew. The church is exceptionally well preserved and is one of the most distinctive stave churches in Norway. Some of the finest features are the lavishly carved portals and the roof carvings of dragons's heads. The stavchurches are Norway's most important contribution to world architecture and Norway's oldest preserved timber buildings.

Thanks for looking!

Hello Alex,

what an original shot of the stave church . In my opinion Borgund is the most beauliful of all these churches in Norway.
I like the light on the wooden side panels on the left side.
Maybe sharpening it would make it even better.

Best wishes,
Katrin.
