As a big fan of the Highlands of Scotland, I was bound to be captivated by Norway. "Norway is wildest Scotland exaggerated. It is our north magnified, our grandeur glorified, our small tunes given the splendour of Sibelius" (Hamish Brown). I was however so busy being captivated by it that I often forgot to take notes of where many of these photos were taken. The oversight was only remedied by much time-consuming research at home with maps, books and Google. I was successful for the most part, but if any Norway-experts can tell me where this is located, I`d be grateful to hear from you.

Addendum: thanks go to Fred Johansen for identifying the location of the second image of the above two.
