The Valley of My Childhood [1]

I was thirteen when I left Gauldalen behind, after living there since I was born…

In this series it is my aim to show the diversity and daily life in this area, during all seasons of the year. Traditionally farming was important and I will therefore start my pictorial presentation in the fields, showing how autumn ploughing is preparing the soil for winter and the season to come!

Gauldalen is a valley in the central part of Norway in the county Sør-Trøndelag. The latitude for this area is around 64, which is the same as in the middle of Alaska. However, the climate is better than in Alaska because of an ocean stream bringing warm water from the Caribbeans.

The valley is approximately 100 km long. The river Gaula runs in the valley in the northwest direction from its origin in the mountains around 30-40 km from the Swedish border.

There are several small villages in the valley. The distance between these is typically 4-7 km and the size is 800-1500 people. Compared to the European continent one can hardly use the term “village”, as the buildings in a village in Gauldalen are not as concentrated as you would find in a typical central European village.

Gauldalen was shaped by a moving glacier at the end of the last ice age 10-20.000 years ago. At that time the ocean level was approximately 200 meters higher as com pared with today, and one can easily find several geological formations created in the last period of the ice age.

Hi Pabloe,

The light and soft tones here are wonderful. It really has a painterly feel to my eye and the positioning of the small building juxtaposed with the field really reinforces depth and draws me into the image.

Cheers!

Hi Pablo,
a wonderful image with great lighting and POV,
amazing colors,sharpness and clarity are also superb!Thanks for sharing.
Greetings,

Hello Pablo,
Although it's good to have winter finished, it's also nice to see your before-winter photo.
The photo is divided into more different parts: the lighted group of the trees in the upper left corner, the dark area next to it, the black ground and the small house in the end of it, the green grass in the lower right corner and the dry bush in the foreground. They make a very good composition!
The colours are not so vivid, but I don't mind. The green looks quite fresh though. The light condition was perfect and you managed to capture it very well!
TFS!
Best wishes,
Marci

Hi Pablo, What a beautiful rolling landscape, the contrasting light works brilliantly & although there is a lack of real colour the patch of green to the left is very welcoming, I love the little barn it draws the eye right to it, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Hi Pablo,
A very attractive picture where the newly ploughed field and the shadowed slope lead the eye to the small barn. It is certainly not difficult to find geological formations created in the last period of the ice age here in Scandinavia.

Hei Pablo,
Superb light and composition. I love the way the plowed dark soil works as a perfect lead-in to the barn and how it creates a very, very attractive diagonal line. An excellent photo job.

Pablo,
Great, artistic shot. I love these patches of ploughed ground, almost the colour of charcoal on paper. These regular shapes, set against the natural cloud shadow across the valley. Great, complicated geometry at work here!!

it is the large shadow telling us about season and time there. The long view of the field after harvest, the background green have some peaceful beauty. Thanks for the note.

Nice picture here! I really like the colours and I feel your composition is great with the hut near the top right!

Well done!

Hello Pablo. Already in the Thumbnail one recognizes the quality of this photo. It is outstanding in all photographic disciplines. And: it presents the topic accurately. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hi, Pablo. You've used the border between the two fields to create a good diagonal line leading to the barn. The contrasts are very good between the ploughed and unploughed fields. The background is still frozen and tells us winter is nearly there. Good depth and nice colours in this rural image.

Hello Pablo,
Thank you for sharing another of your childhood vallery with a perfect view!
beautiful land with a great displayed of light and shadows in the shot! a perfect beauty!
well done
have a wonderful weekend,Pablo!

Hi Pablo,
a really fantastic image with this excellent shadow and light play.
The place of the details - parts are ideal and they create this fantastic view.
A paradise valley to have a childhood life there, how many kids they live in city-towns "jungles" !!!

Hello Pablo!
What a nice new picture, I really like the light and colors very much and the sharpness is brilliant. You chose an excellent point of view and there´s a great feeling of depth inside the picture. You chose the exactly right exposure, so the shadow side isn´t too dark and the light side isn´t too bright, very nice.
Well, I can´t think of anything to improve this composition !
Jonas

Wow, superb image, Pablo. The brown rectangule stretched as a long arm to the house is fantastic and the light is beautiful. I wonder if it would make a stronger graphic image without the foreground and the line of the land reaching the bottom left corner. However, I have to say that I like this golden vegetation as well.
Have a nice weekend,
ricardo

Hi Pablo,

The point of view leads our eyes to the end of the field and the edge of the forest. The bushes in the foreground are a good addition to the composition. The light brings out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Pablo
Amazing composition with a great POV and wonderful light. I like how you framed it, the diagonal and graphism on the land

Hi Pablo!

If this is the valley of your childhood, then you are a lucky man! Beautiful place! Excellent photo, great low POV, beautiful perspective created by the lines on the fields that also work as lead in lines to guide the eye to that small hut over there. Great light managment, too! Congratulations!

Your composition here is extraordinary, the barn is really taken attention and both the dry grass in Foreground and the details in the trees at the left are fine. I have an absolute favorite photographer when it came to show the countryside farmland in northern scandinavia , Sune Jonsson, check him out.
All the best and a nice sunday.

You were lucky to live in a place like this. It seems to be...peaceful and lovely.

Excellent light!

Hi Pablo,
I like the luminosity that is diminishing towards the background, forming a few tonalities and a few layers, which with the splendid game of light and shades, give us a magnificent graphism.
It is a great work, in a magnificent composition.

You caught this lovely pasture in fantastic light. The colors and details are soft, soothing and dream like. I love the varying tones and textures created by this excellent lighting. You must have long winter nights at 64 but long easy summer nights. In Alaska they play semi-pro baseball at midnight in July.

Hello Pablo,

Together with the note, this is a fabulous photographic of the bucolic countryside that you grew up in. Considering the Arctic Circle is located at 66° 33′ you were not far at all. I've visited Trodheim and then the North Cape on two occasions, both times in the summer, and the milder weather you describe compared with Alaska's is very true.

Warm regards,

Bonsoir, mon ami Pablo,

La beauté est manifeste, et le plaisir du regard en est envoûté.

Hello Pablo,Preparing for winter, that is what we are doing but our winter is not as harsh as yours. A very well composed & beautiful image with the brown grass in the foreground and the grey field leading the eyes to the lonely wooden structure. The image has great depth with the dark trees at the end.
Nice scene and a good note to go with it.

Hello Pablo,

The natural diversity of this valley is beautiful. I like the way you composed the image with the building well placed on the top right. The view is clear, with excellent colours and sharpnes. The strip of land leads the eyes nicely to the shed. Beautiful place. Thanks Pablo.

Roberto

Hi Pablo. Great photo and interesting note. I like the graphic nature of this shot. Nice blend of shapes, colours and textures. Well captured and thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi Pablo, very nice shot of this autumn tilling. The colour is very good in this shot giving us excellent contrast between the ploughed and unploughed ground. The light in this shot is good too, with good light on the fields, but some interesting shadow detail seen on the hill in the forest. The barn at the end of the ploughed area adds a good focal point for your audience.

Thanks, John

Hi Pablo


Great scene, which I think has received all qualifiers positive by the community.

I love the composition, and the play of geometric shapes that occur in the field. Good light and beautiful tones.

Excellent diagonal perpective provided by the ploughed field and leading to the small shelter. This is a really brilliant composition.

Bonjour,
Belle photo de ces champs, labourrés,coupés,qui pousse et avec ces grandes herbes a l' avant qui avec ces arbres dans le fond donne une bonne profondeur de champs.
Jolies couleurs et beau jeu d' ombres et de lumières.
Merci du partage.

Amitiés Thomas

Pablo,
This is a nicely composed shot with the plowed strip leading the eye to the barn. The plowed strip creates a nice diagonal through the shot giving the photo a nice sense of direction. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

The lines of the plough lead us straight to the barn.There is a big contrast between the light and shade but you have managed that well. Good work

Hi Pablo, i like the smoothness of colors at this photo. Also the use of lines at the landschape are very well done.

Hi Pablo!
It seems like it was a very beautiful place where you lived when you were a child.
Fantastic photo, beautiful colors, good contrast and an excellent point of view.
The depth is great, I like the sharpness and the frame matches very well to the beautiful composition!

Best regards,
Johannes

Hello Pablo
This photograph evoked your children's memories from the past. It reminds me of my childhood, too :). It wasn't so long time ago, but... it already was ;).
I like this autumnal photo with its colours, light and composition; the main elements of this image are wooden builiding and ploughed field - this field leads my eyes to the house :). But I'm not preparing for the winter, now I'm waiting for the sunny, warm spring :).
Regards

Hei Pablo
Excellent pov of the hut with the dark land drawing the eye there. The grass in the foreground creates excellent balance and contrasts nicely.
Lovely light too.
Regards
Nikki

Great deep composition with the field looking like an arrow pointing at the house, all the lines are very well used in good light!

Cheers
A.

Hi Pablo,
Well taken with a good perspective to this small house, great effect with this diagonal, lovely light too and well captured.

Hi Pablo
The light is beautifull. The graphisme is very nice in the fields.
It's a very nice landscape

Hi Pablo!
Very beautiful rural landscape!I like the dark land here, it almost seems a road leading us to the little wooden house.So many different colours and different kinds of vegetation in this field.Very good composition and light.

A lovely shot of this vast landscape. Your POV and composition emphasize the vastness. Nice use of the twigs as foreground interest.
Best wishes
Mark

Hola Pablo.
I think that everything have been said about your superb photo. Congratulation for this very special shot.
Well done. TFS.
Wish you a nice weekend.
Best regards.

A lovely composition ! The position of this wooden hut is fantastic, everything is converging to it !
Compliments, I understand why this photo has so much success with the light and the colours...
Cath.

what can i say: your style is great, the colours are various and the lines all seem to lead us towards the cottage !

great

Hi Pablo,
You've composed this perfectly. I don't know what that black patch is (burnt field?) but it surely have a nice overall contrast to the whole scene. The placement of the small cottage is also quite strategic ... it is a balancing element. Very good image and color quality. Excellent work! tfs

Hi pablo,
I like ther strongly graphic diagonals of this composition and the sharply contrasting textures of the dried grasses and the small stones. The small building makes a good focal point.

Hello Pablo
Four gifts for my eyes in this pastoral scenery: The barn is on a sweet spot, the verdoyant hill pops out darkness, the perspective of plowed area forces attention back and forth on the vastness and finally, the subtlety of near view.
An award-winner!
Cheers.

lovely the way you build this compo, the strips of nude ground and golden straw are fantastic, the shadows were nicely used and the pov with that small house in the corner is perfect. Wonderful light, pov and compo

Hello Pablo!
I find this VOMC [1] probably the most artistic - resembling almost a modernist painting with these spear-headed furrows in the field, aimed at the tiny farmhouse.
Friendly,
Anton
