The Mighty Fjords in Photos
It’s hard to describe in words just how inspired I felt during my recent trip to Norway. Surrounded by varying landscapes in every direction, clear air and refreshing sounds of nature, my mind and body fell effortlessly into a bohemian balace as I made my way along the Norwegian fjords. Here are a few photo highlights that needed little or no editing.

Hey,
Those are some really good picture postcards:) The seven sisters waterfall looks brilliant. The landscape looks straight out of Middle Earth. Makes you feel so small in front of those magnificent peaks. Thanks for sharing:)

Thanks Nimish! and you are right – it does look a bit like Middle Earth.

It looks like the kind of place I would like to get lost for a few days; it also remains me about the Milford Sound fjord in New Zealand, another place, using your words, difficult to describe in words.

Marc, I’ve never been to New Zealand myself but I hear nothing but great things!

Great photos! We were just in Norway (in Geiranger, as well!) and it was really pretty. We got a great deal on a cruise, and found that this is an awesome way to see the fjords as you get to sail right past them while relaxing on the comfort of the cruise ship.

That’s awesome! I didn’t do a cruise myself but I agree – great way to see them!

Totally tranquil and breathtaking, Megan. Norway has long been on my list–the New Zealand of the North. I am blown away by its pristine perfection!

Thanks Charu! I’ve heard Norway does look a lot like New Zealand. I guess I’ll just have to go myself to find out

Wowzahs! I really like the shot with the waterfalls running down the fjords – impressive!
Thanks Audrey! I had a field day taking photos of the fjords
