The Valley of My Childhood [10]

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.

During this series I have already given some information about farming in Gauldalen, then it is only natural to add an image showing a typical farm in more details.

This place seems to be of an average size, and judged by the fields they grow some kind of grain, either it is wheat, oats or rye. In addition the farmer usually also owns a forest which gives work and income during wintertime.

In earlier days farms of some size had to hire help on a regular basis, but not so any more. The hired help these days are few and only seasonal, for instance for picking strawberries which is a job impossible to do with machines! Otherwise the farmer and the family do the work.

For smaller farms the owner often has a job outside the farm, for instance are some farmers educated as teachers and combine that with farming in school holidays!

The law states that a farm shall stay within the family if anyone that is related to the farmer wishes so, and the eldest daughter or son is the first in line (Lov om odelsretten og åsetesretten, 1974-06-28).

The same farm from a different point of view is uploaded as workshop...

------

Gauldalen is well over 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.

A moving glacier at the end of the last ice age shaped the valley 10-20.000 years ago. At that time the ocean level was approx 200 meters higher as compared with today, and one can easily find several geological formations created in the last period of the ice age. 24/96(100)

Hello Pablo,

A nice summer picture from 2006, with splendid view about the gold yellow corn fields.
I like the the curve in the layers corn on the field, this gives a nice perspective.
Also the light cloudy sky care for a good composition and plesant colours.
Very well done.

Have a nice weekend,

Hi Pablo,
a nice curve slowly going up; the red house closes well the framing, maybe the sky may have been cropped a little.

This is another winner because of the elegant slanted line of grass that leads attention
on those THREE waterproof envelopes and then back to the upper story where farm buildings are topped of a glorious sky.

Hi Pablo,
Beautiful clear shot with picturesque colours and lights. The composition is superb, the atmosphere is peaceful and calm. Fascinating impression for this place my friend, Have a nice weekend
George

This shot has nice clean lines, Pablo, and the very pleasing effect of the curving line of green in the foreground. The buildings are well placed in relation to the furrow lines and the white bales of hay. I found your notes very interesting, too.
Regards,

Pablo,
This is a pristine looking farm. Your composition is great using the green strip to form a diagonal through the shot. The placement of the barn and house is great allowing us to see the open field and trees on the other side. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,

Hello Pablo,
A very nice landscape. Simple and quiet.
I like this kind of simple view a lot.
Well done.

Hi Pablo,

There is a good contrast between the yellow of the fields and the blue of the sky. The curve line of the field leads our eyes toward the farm which comes out standing with its colors. The subject is nicely frame. Have a nice day.

Hi Pablo,

Harvested fields are eye catching with their yellow textures and tracks in it. Slope of field and green parts are excellently leads us to the farm house and barn. Multi colored facade of barns is very nice especially with its red part under wonderful, cloudy sky. Excellent clarity in natural colors and sharpness as usual. Congratulations. Have a nice weekend.

Hi Pablo .
A very evocative photo with a wonderful atmosphere of late summer and harvest !
I like the colours , but also the soft curves of the harvested fields . Letting us take a look up to the left adds depth to the view !
You have written a very touching and informative note !
Have a nice weekend !

Hello Pablo. Back to your signatory red barn. I like the harvester's track curling uphill with trees making up the horizon. The barns sits right on the deserved spot against the sheeplike cloud in the sky. Well done again and have a wonderful weekend. Best regards. Jusni

Hello Pablo. A narration over the places of the childhood. Here it is presented with the photo of a farm. The occupation with the childhood is emotional and subjective. As an adult one compares at that time and the today's time. One looks for the differences. But the place of the childhood will remain always important. Your photo pleases me very well, because it treats a very interesting topic. The photo shows the landscape of your childhood from the most beautiful side. Best regards, Wolfgang.

It is splendid your photograph, I like much the harmony and the balance of the elements in the image. The light of summer on this field is very pleasant. I like much this sky. Beautiful glance and thank you for this splendid WS where you left a place prevalent to the sky. Beautiful work Pablo, thank you.

With all my friendships and a very good WE,

Hello Pablo,
What a beautiful blue sky! I like the contrast between the yellow field and the red farm, very nice view.

Hello Pablo,

Your epic journey out of Gaudalen make engaging reading, with the beautiful and bucolic countryside you left behind generating deep nostalgia. This scene reminds me of the American painter Andrew Wyeth's well known painting, Christina's World.

Have a good weekend,

Hi, Pablo. A very carefully composed image. The strip of grass seaprating the two fields leads us well into the picture. the farm buildings stand out nicely against the sky which I find quite dramatic. Nice colours and good contrasts.
Best wishes,
Philippe

Gorgeous image, Pablo. The best is that green line climbing the hill...we read the image from right to left and once reached the top, back to right where we find the farm. The colors are most attractive and the cloudy sky is enhancing as usual. Superb image quality and good note - a unique theme in TE.

Hello my friend Pablo,
A photo perciosa with big contrast of colors and excellent composition. Norway is difficult to me to imagine with these so summer colors, I always see her green or with snow. Some day I will go to know her, it had thought to go this month, but it was not possible, I want to see the nights of the sun.

Hello Pablo, the topography of the ground arises as if one were j' there; like l' impression to fly over l' place, and with the undulations of the ground there is movement in this image, the various layers of color which form the fields of oats or rye lets slip the glance on this beautiful area of your childhood, sincerely .............Hello Pablo, la topographie du terrain ressort comme si l’on y était j'aime l'impression de survoler l'endroit, et avec les ondulations du terrain il y a du mouvement dans cette image, les différentes strates de couleur que forme les champs d’avoine ou de seigle laisse glisser le regard sur cette belle région de ton enfance, bien amicalement

Hello Pablo,

This is what I would imagine when thinking about the country side of Norway. Then again, I'm not sure if it's often sunny or warm there :-).
Nice shot with the rolling hill. The yellow and blue tones combine nicely, with the little touches of green and red. Nice! Also the workshop is interesting, though the fields could be a bit more on the yellow side there.
Thanks for sharing!

I love this shot with the golden fields & their curving rake furrows contrasting well with the crystalline clarity of the blue sky.

Thats such an impeccabel effect here that i couldnt take my eyes off. Wonderful colours and beautiful scene with such expert composition, colours and textures

Hi Pablo,
what a wondeful composition, so well balanced and framed. The sharpness and clarity are at the top. Great colors too.

Hello Pablo, this is another good one in this series. The lines of cut grain in the fields provides a good textured base for the shot, with good colour above it seen in the barn, bush and sky. I had a look at your workshop too. I think I like the format here better, with the tall tall sky. Maybe it's that cloud that helps there. In any case I enjoyed both.

Thanks, John

Great composition. Beautiful colours and lines. greetings,

figen

Hello again!
Excellent shot of Norwegian farm! It looks as if it is painted by an artist! Very good composition and amazing colours.

Hi Pablo,
long time not seen a red barn from you. Even this is only partly red, but still nice. I like the wonderful light on the golden fields below the goods sky. Wonderful view.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Simple and superb scene--the colorful rural houses, the golden field with its textures, the magnificent bluesky with fluffy clouds.

Hi Pablo,
the simplicity of the composition is the strongpoint of the photography! a great composition with a control of the light very effective and a really beautiful landscape and and transmits positive vibrations.

Have a nice week end, Jordi

Beautiful scenery and great colours. I like how you chose to show more of the blue sky and less of the foreground.

It must have been a great place to frolic around as a child.

Hi Pablo,

What a beautiful image, so sharp and light. The view is breathtaking with the rollling hill giving depth to the image. The red barn is very characteristic of your images and add a nice contrast between the yellow field and blue sky. Beautiful work Pablo.

Roberto

Hi Pablo. We have no such laws about farm ownership here, our farms are more of a business venture I guess. Great photo. Wonderful colours and attractive sky. Well composed and thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Best wishes for the Sunday!

Hi Pablo,
A lovely bucolic view, with gorgeous clarity and colours. You used very wisely the lines of the fields to make it very nicely dynamic. The sky is great as well.
Regards, José

Pablo bonjour.
Une photo comme je les aime, bien soignée mais sans prétention avec un paysage très simple mais très agréable à regarder. Ici les champs du premier plan font beaucoup pour la beauté de l'ensemble.

Hello Pablo
I can't believe I have not seen the last three posts of yours. Like the furrow lines here, creates a very nice graphic effect & that green grass patch following the furrows. They provide excellent lead-in lines as our eyes move from the right to the left. The barns, as always, especially the red one makes this even more attractive.
A fine shot!
Regards
Angshu

Hi Pablo!
I like the clouds of this picture! I think without them the picture wouldn't be that interesting.
The landscape is wonderful and the red part of the house on the right really suits into the photo!
very good work!

regards and a nice we!
Phil

Hello Pablo,

Ambiance très Middle-West américain. ! Sauf, qu'en Norvège, l'espace cultivé agricole est plutôt restreint.
J'aime beaucoup la lumière et la résolution de ce cliché.
Merci

HI Pablo,

This picture struck me immediately .. I would have thought it was taken in the Midwestern United States (the Dakotas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas etc.) where I grew up .. and that led me to thought of the massive numbers of people of Scandinavian heritage in this region .. striking .. hope you and yours are well. take care, John

Hello Pablo
What a wonderful part of this world to have spent your childhood. Interesting farm buildings and the fields are immaculately presented. So sharp. TFS, Marlene

This looks like a very fertile place, my friend Pablo!
I love the composition, or rather the starkness of it!
Goldy

Hi Pablo,
Interesting story to introduce the living style in this farm land, good weather and nice to see blue sky with white clouds, good pov to show the houses from a far distance to create the relaxing feels, thanks for sharing.
Ally

What colors and what a geometry! I think that is not bad to be a child here...
Wishes, Diana

- Yes, Pablo, it's already emotional to read your comments which show us whom you loves this valley of your childhood and on top of that, with pictures very nice as this one, I love the curve which forms the small hurdle and the always beautiful cloudy sky, anyway, bravo!
All the best.
giorgio

Hi Pablo,
Farmers always has this knack of making their fields look like a golf course. So, your farm there also underwent a massive industrial revolution ... same here in NZ, after the Gov't stopped the subsidies, the farms were forced to run efficiently and profitably and one of the steps they have to do was to mechanize some of the farm works. Wonderfully captured and composed. I like the repeating curve patters ... those two rocks in the foreground somehow created balance to the scene. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hi Pablo,
I don`t know if it matters for you or not, after so many pozitive comments from other, but this is a very neat and clean image, a true descriptive postcard for that region.
The colors are fantastic,yet natural.
Bravo!
Nelu

Hi Pablo,
Wonderful farm.Very beautiful photo,congratulation.
Best regards,
Ralf
