Lofoten Island by Peter Cheung

September 2023 - Lofoten Island

About the Image(s)

This photo was taken in Lofoten Island when we visited Norway several years ago. The contrast between the jagged mountains, the calm water, the beautiful sunset, and the picturesque fishing villages are stunning and spectacular. The camera settings I used are Nikon D810, Nikon 14-24mm, 24mm, 1 sec, f/11, ISO 100. In post-processing, I reduced the brightness of the sky and brightened up the mountains a bit. I also cropped the foreground a little bit.

This is one of my dream "Places" , that I would love to visit. Beautiful! Love the colors and reflections. Your image makes me want to find a way to go! Not a thing would I change about this image. I'm jealous it is outstanding. I hope you have considered getting this printed and framed!   Posted: 09/12/2023 10:11:45

Ditto on being jealous. I would love to visit here and see this village with my own eyes. This is a beautiful photo.   Posted: 09/22/2023 14:24:04

I like the composition if this image Peter as it uses the water and the reflections all the way around to keep my eye exploring all of the image. A beautiful image and great choice of shooting location, it's different than many I've seen of Lofoten. Great post processing to create stunning image.   Posted: 09/25/2023 09:07:30

What a shot Peter! Picture postcard!!! While the reflection and the contrasting colored houses are stunning. the cloud capped peak for me is simply amazing. Did I forget to say how great the colors are! Outstanding!   Posted: 09/29/2023 18:25:07
