Nice image, Greg -- great light playing across the mountains.
Such a beautiful image, Lasse, but I'm curious about something. I went to Google Maps to locate Borka and found that, in Satellite mode, no such mountain exists anywhere near there. In fact all the terrain in that area is rather flat. Could it be that your memory is "hazy" or has Google Maps taken on the ability to edit images in Photoshop? :rolleyes: Please enlighten me. Here is a screenshot of what I see on Google Maps.Quote:

Yes, it makes for a good day out, probably easier in the winter months when there will be less people aboutQuote:

Not many mountains there.
No, Google doesn't get it right sometimes.
The long name is Borkafjäll but since fjäll just means mountain it's usually shortened.

Beautiful country...I had tried to find it by looking for Borka Mountain (any excuse to travel by Google...).

Vasilkovsky Carpathians. Ukraine.
Not far from Kiev, there is an absolutely fantastic place called "Vasylkiv Carpathians". Among the flat terrain, ravines and gorges suddenly appear, overgrown with grassy vegetation and trees.
In this case, I liked the combination of geometric shapes and light accents.
A complex combination of front wall rise and back wall tilt was used.
Nagaoka 4x5. Congo 90/6.3@22. Red filter. Fomapan 200 in Ilfotech HC110 1 + 31.
A wonderful balance of light and dark forms -- with the dark forms staying quite alive and full of accessable information.
I like the tension between being invited to enter into the image but these beautifully lit thorns say otherwise.
And lastly -- I appreciate the open upper corners. This could have easily been a vertical with the tree branches sweeping up into the corners and enclosing this space. It would be a good photograph...but it would not capture what the photographer mentioned about this being an open landscape.
