From my trip to Norway mid March. Late afternoon image towards Formokampen in Rondane NP.

f/7,1 1/250s 70mm
D300s, 70-200 2,8 lens and polarizer

My new job occupies me to 99% but I promise to be more active on NPN within soon.

The climb from left corner to rt...and the distant shadow climbing to the peak gives my eye a pathway. It takes me into the entire frame. Really enjoy the balance and complimentary sky colors ...peaceful.

An appealing interplay of light and shadow for me, Christer. I appreciate the details in the foreground and your exposure is spot on in my opinion.

Very good, interesting dynamic composition. I like it subtlety and shadows.

Beautiful image. All those bands of white, shades of gray and gray/blues, and the soft bands of blue in the ski with the clouds really create a perfect, harmonious composition. Very well done, Christer.

A great looking winter scene, Christer, and I especially like your large version. I like the lines within your comp and the nice shadows and highlites. Very nice.

I like the simple comp and the white of the snow and the shadow are handled very well.

Very good composition Christer. I like the balance and the shapes a lot. The light/shadow play also works very well.

The shape, lines, textures, and repetition are very nice here. I like the blue-gray tones in the snow and almost wish the middle are of snow showed more of it. Looks and feels like a very desolate place in winter.
