Hello Pablo,

Very interesting, if very sad notes!

This is like an artist's canvas.
It has lovely layers of colour sweeping across the shot!
The river is definitely the focal point to draw the eye in and is assisted by the smallpatch of peachy orange of a field surface.
Superb composition!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Pablo,

A very beautiful sight on this valley, I like much contrasts of colors between the foreground and the green one of the mountain. Good management of the lights. Thank you for the interesting historical note on the place but really tragic.

With all my friendships and a very good WE,

Jean-Charles

Thanks for TL, Pablo
I just quit GoogleEarth because I wanted a larger view of this land slide that caused such sad events. Unfortunately, over that area thier définition is not adequate. But I saw that you arrived on premises from Svartoya highway!!
Anyway this valley is well framed here by the slanted mountain top, the gold at foreground and, of course, those "three" at right!!
Best regards.

Hello Pablo. Interesting note on how man interfere with nature's cause. I like the view with strong contrasting foreground color overlooking the river. The backdrop mountain is well kept but I was just wondering if the slope has been terraced too. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni

Olá Pablo, I like the sense of "furry" here. I can almost feel the fluffy vegetation under the touch of my hands... ;-) Beautiful view with warm colors. Nice contrast bettween the brownish FG and green BG with the river sight in bettween. It could be a summer scene but it must be quite cold, even if not so cold as in Alaska.

Hola Pablo!

I Like the diagonals that draw up hills with the contrast between the reddish tones, green and blue that marks to the first plane, mountains, and the sky.
The river helps us to center the wiev in a point of the photo later to be able to observe it in detail.

TFS! Jordi

Hi Pablo,

superb view and composition. You found a great point for shotting with the diagonal line of the mountain on the back and the orange tones of the foreground trees. There is a nice contrast between those two areas. Crispy and clear image. Great job!
Have a nice Sunday,

Hej Pablo my friend!
It's actually hard exact to tell if the image is in autumn or at the spring. the water has a cold blue that really sets the latitude. very interesting note about the disaster, that remind about one one the other side of the border when a
Man called Magnus Huss tryed to build a chanal 1796 for the timber in the Indalsälven and everything went wrong and emptied the big lake of Ragunda in 4 houres and a lot of people got killed down streams.

Hei Pablo,

Congratulations to your 200th post. I guess that there are very few TE Members with such a massive number of smileys for 200 pictures if any. Wonderful spring picture even if the colours make you wonder if it is autumn. Really well composed and a great POV. Your sort of feel for having a closer look what is behind the nearest mountainside to the left. TFS and have a nice Sunday evening!

Cheers,

Ulf

The colors are more muted here (except for the river in the valley below) but the rust brown is pleasant to see. I believe 500 people dying in the 13th century was a big catatrophe, since people are still remembering about it nowadays...

All the best,

Emmanuel

• [2008-06-08 21:14]

Hi Pablo,
I like the curving edge-line of the red branches against the blue curve of the river. The diagonal line of the hills is nicely balanced by the trio of trees. Fascinating note, it reminds us that natural disasters have always been around.

• JPlumb (3121)
• [2008-06-09 2:56]

Hi Pablo, this is a very good vantage point looking into this tight river valley. The early spring colours have established a good transition from the browns from the front deciduous trees to the green conifers in the back of your picture. The positioning of the river with it's curve to the right fits well in this setting. The shot is very clear and sharp throughout. Very well done.

Thanks, John

Hi, Pablo. There is a good contrast between the trees in the foreground and the spruce trees in the background. The bend of the river is clearly visible and the water colour also contrasts well with the clours on the slopes.
Best wishes,

Another good capture of these magnificent landscapes of your country, which we can enjoy thanks to your magnificent photos.

There is a great beauty in your composition, this one is an excellent work.

Beautiful scene, I like the warm colors and the soft light. Well framed and composed. But I should have expected the trees to look greener, at that time of the year--April the 30th. The spring seems not very decided to visit those places...

Hi Pablo, you were lucky to grow up in such a beautiful place, even it you did have to leave it behind. If it had been possible a higher POV might have been good, showing more of the river and perhaps a step to the left to hide the small red building building completely behind the hill. Just a thought, not a major critism. cheer, Steve

Hi Pablo,

The dry bushes in the foreground add an interesting contrast to this image. The view is splendid with the mountains filling the background. The light and sharpness work very well to enhance the view...How far do you live from Trondheim? We are thinking of visiting that city perhaps next year.
