Photographer's Note
Lofoten / Ramberg
Landscapes you don’t expect to see, going far north in Norway, but on The Lofoten & Vesterεlen Islands, driving the E10 between Nusfjord and Ramberg, you can enjoy this view, in the summertime on this photo but in the winter the road is quite spectacular too...
Have a look on a first Workshop HERE where I posted a view from Google Earth on the same road but a bit more to the north.
What to say about The Lofoten in a few words?
Sheer, jagged mountain peaks, with the sea at their feet, form a towering setting for the tiny, picturesque fishing villages. Lofoten is renowned for its magnificent scenery and traditional fisheries culture, for the fishermen's "rorbu" cabins, the Northern Lights and the Midnight Sun.

Hello Viviane,
a friend of mine always told me you don't have to leave Europe to see all landscapes of the world....., may be he was right, looking at your picture I think of New Zealand (never have been there).....
Prettig weekend!

Salut Viviane
Interesting to see this view in June. The white sand may look tropical but the patches of snow speak for themselves.
Nice composition with the diagonal beach leading towards the mountains.
Have a nice Sunday

Hello Viviane, an interesting title.
A spectacular view, what more could you wish for? Golden sand, turquoise sea and all backed by snow capped mountains.
Excellent shot.
Regards Jean.

Hello dear Viviane,
Yes, as your title suggests, at first glance one would immediately think that this picture was of some tropical beach - the almost white sands, the deep blue/green water - but them we see the patches of snow still clinging to the mountain tops in June! A beautiful scene, perfectly composed and very nicely including some colourfully dressed people on the beach, giving a fine sense of scale as well as some human interest.
And your workshop image, courtesy of Mr. Google, shows a much more snowy scene though the roadway appears to be quite clear and negotiable and not blocked by snow.
A fine note too.
Beautiful!
Kindest Regards,
John.

Hello Viviane, I know this beautiful beach, I was relaxing there and even I saw the people bathing, as you can see here. Magnificent panorama. Awesome composition, excellent sharpness. And you were very lucky with the fine weather.
Fantastic place.
Have a nice day

Hello Viviane,
This beach is very picturesque. I like the color of the water, and the curve of the shoreline. I wonder if it's ever warm enough to go in the water, though. It must be cold all the time. The mountains on all sides are also beautiful.

Hallo Viviane,
Het lange witte zandstrand en de blauwe zee zouden inderdaad een veel warmere plaats doen vermoeden.
Doch de eeuwige sneeuw op de bergflanken brengt ons terug tot de realiteit.
Het is zeker en vast een prachtig landschap ons getoond in een mooie compositie met de grote inham van de zee.
Ook de groene voorgrond is een mooie toevoeging.
Vele groeten, Paul
