Situated in southwestern Norway, northeast of Bergen, Geirangerfjord and Nærøyfjord, set 120km from one another, are part of the west Norwegian fjord landscape, which stretches from Stavanger in the south to Andalsnes, 500km to the northeast. The two fjords, among the world’s longest and deepest, are considered as archetypical fjord landscapes and among the most scenically outstanding anywhere. Their exceptional natural beauty is derived from their narrow and steep-sided crystalline rock walls that rise up to 1,400m from the Norwegian Sea and extend 500m below sea level. The sheer walls of the fjords have numerous waterfalls while free flowing rivers cross their deciduous and coniferous forests to glacial lakes, glaciers and rugged mountains. The landscape features a range of supporting natural phenomena, both terrestrial and marine such as submarine moraines and marine mammals.

The pictures are form the Geiranger Fjord.

This is Obrestad lighthouse (Norway). The lighthouse was finished in 1873, and is a solide rock construction. Until 1940, the lantern was placed in the west end wall, but since the recontruction after the war the signals from the lantern have come from the eastern concrete tower. The lighthouse has been unmanned since 1991, but the Norwegian Weather Office still recives daily weather observations from the station. The picture of the lighthouse is taken with the ocean behind me.
