Nightshots from Flaam..

2008.01.05
Flaam..

A close picture, we can see the railroadstation, and in the back we see Fretheim Hotel...

Thought this was a nice motive..

Here starts the railroad to the mountains..

I like trains..

The stationarea was quiet and totally empty this evening, I like this one..

Me and my daughter are spending the weekend at my father-in-law`s place in Aurland. And this evening I took a drive to the nearest village, with the name Flaam. Flaam is very well known in Norway, and with the location in the end of the Aurland fjord. Big cruise-ships are visiting this place whole summer, and there is a famous 20 km railroad here. The "Flaam-railroad" is starting in Flaam and goes through the Flaam-walley and up to the high mountains, to a place named Myrdal. This track is very very popular for the tourists. I have taken this journey several times, have also walked the walley and did it even with bicycle. Well, hope to shoot some nice shots from here in the summer but these are some wintershots from this evening. Canon EOS 30D

MHJphotos I agree Chris ... #6 is very, very good! Great low perspective of the 'end of the line'. Very cool!

I'm a bit of a night shot geek myself (or perhaps just a geek!), so I appreciate these very much! =)
