The quiet stillness of a mountain pond just before sunset — when the sky catches fire and autumn colors glow like embers. Shot during the fleeting golden hour, this moment captures the perfect balance between light, reflection, and the rugged beauty of Norway’s highlands.
As I live in the southeastern part of Norway, it is about a 6 hours drive up to this mountain plateau at 1000m (3000ft) and the surrounding mountains are all adding another 1000m.
I was scanning the weather forecast every day the previous 14 days in September, but it were all rain and heavy winds until this day. Jumped into the car and hoped for the best.

I look at this photo and thinking it has to be one of my best panoramas of all time....at least my best panorama in 2025.
